Designed as a comprehensive meal prep station, this modular bamboo board includes integrated polymer containers to help organize "mise en place" directly over the sink. The unit uses carbonized Moso bamboo for the main deck, which provides a hard, knife-friendly surface for daily vegetable prep. The friction-fit expansion rails allow the unit to adapt to various sink widths, providing an immediate increase in usable counter space for apartment dwellers.
The green bins are designed to be BPA-free and are useful for separating scraps from chopped ingredients. Because the bamboo joints are subject to the humidity of the sink, regular oiling with food-grade mineral oil is necessary to prevent the wood from expanding or warping. The unit is best suited for sinks up to 30 inches wide; placing excessive weight at the center of a fully extended board can cause the materials to flex.
