The BKSC56O model features a 2 ¼" thick, edge-grain Northern Hard Rock Maple surface that is NSF-certified for food service use. Crafted in the USA since 1887, Boos commercial work surfaces are trusted by chefs, bakers, and butchers worldwide. Regular oiling helps prevent cracking and maintain the food-safe barrier. All dimensions have a manufacturing tolerance of ±0.5".

Why You'll Love It:

• The board is made from premium Northern Hard Rock Maple, known for its density, durability, and clean, light grain.
• The edge-grain construction provides a flat, ultra-stable surface, making it ideal for prepping, plating, or packaging.
• The 2 ¼" (57 mm) commercial thickness can withstand daily heavy-duty use without flexing.
• The Penetrating Oil finish protects the board from moisture while remaining easy to resurface or re-oil.
• The non-reversible design keeps the working face perfectly level.
• The board is NSF Component certified for use in professional food-service environments.
• The board is made in the USA by John Boos & Co., the original Boos Block® craftsmen.

Care & Maintenance:

• Regularly apply Boos® Mystery Oil to the surface at least once a month or whenever the wood appears dry. This helps maintain the wood's moisture and condition.
• For added protection, follow up the oil application with Boos Block® Board Cream. This helps seal in the moisture.
• Clean the surface using mild soap and warm water. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the wood.
• To sanitize, wipe the surface with a solution of 1 tablespoon of bleach per gallon of water. Rinse and dry the surface thoroughly after sanitizing.
