Our beeswax wraps are a sustainable companion in the kitchen, office, school and leisure time.
Simply cover bowls and bowls or wrap food completely - our beeswax wraps are easy to shape with warm hands.
Clean after use with cold water and dish soap, rinse and let dry.
The wax for our wraps comes from the wild rock bee Apis dorsata, which is similar in size to a hornet. Unlike local honeybees, rock bees build a single huge comb (up to 1.5 m in diameter), which they hang from tall trees, rock faces, or (increasingly, due to lack of natural habitat) water towers.
This means: our wax wraps are significantly tougher and more pliable than any other on the market.
Just imagine: These combs will have to withstand monsoon storms at great height! The bees nest in a national forest in South India, where tribals have been collecting honey (and wax) in traditional ways for 1000s of years.
Beeswax has an antibacterial and antifungal effect - making it perfect for the natural and sustainable storage of food.
The wipes can be reused for up to a year, after which they are compostable.
