Care & Maintenance for your bessu. product

A Little Love Goes a Long Way.

At bessu., we build products that are meant to stand the test of time. Follow these simple instructions to best protect your products.

Butcher blocks, cutting boards and servers.

Cleaning after use

Wipe away any leftover food. Use a damp, soapy cloth to gently wash. Rinse and dry.

Stains and smells

While our protective finish forms a protective barrier on each board, small stains and smells can occasionally seep in, particularly without regular maintenance. To prevent odors, boards should be cleaned immediately after cutting stronger odor foods.

Occasional maintenance

To maintain our unique finish, we recommend reapplying the finishing oil when the smooth finish on the board begins to dull. To re-apply, ensure the block is clean and dry. Apply a thin coat of oil and gently spread the product evenly using a lint-free cloth. Allow 8-10 hours to dry, and reapply another 1-3 coats.

Magnetic drawer inserts.

Cleaning for wood and leather inserts

Remove contents and use a warm, damp cloth to wipe down drawers as needed.

Cleaning for velvet and anti-tarnish inserts

Lightly dust with a soft brush or lint roller as needed.

Seamless stairs.

Regular maintenance

To prevent scratching, use a dust mop or vacuum to remove dry dirt or debris. Next, use a soft cloth or mop with either liquid soap and warm water or warm water with a touch of vinegar to gently clean each stair.
