What exactly is rubberwood? Rubber trees are grown to produce latex. However, they are only yielding profit for about 30 years, after which they are usually burnt to make room for new trees. In the recent years many producers have started repurposing the trees once they’ve stopped being profitable for latex production – it makes a dense, warm grain that is highly resistant to warping and cracking. So instead of wasting a perfect tree, it can now be used to create wonderful, new and exciting household items.
LFGB Ceritificate is a German Standard for food and food-related household items and it’s main aim is to check that the tested products do not contain chemical hazardous materials and are in no way toxic or harmful to their users.
Among other things the LFGB test include: odour and taste transfer tests, composition tests on plastics, metals, silicone, detection of heavy metals, resins and hazardous chemicals and much more.
Leo & Fred Bear and Bunny Plates have been LFGB tested and found completely clean and safe.
