The The Charles Viancin Silicone Cutting Boards are a new step in the evolution of cutting boards. They combine all the “standard” features of a traditional rigid board with the weight, flexibility and “cleanup-ableness” of the newer flexible boards. But this evolution goes several steps further.
The silicone is thicker - 0.2” - than the usual flexible board, which has two major benefits: first, these boards are more sturdy than the usual flexible board. And this thickness in the silicone cutting boards allows you to cut on both sides, like a traditional rigid board but unlike most flexible boards that require some nonslip element on the “bottom” side. The silicone in the Charles Viancin boards acts as its own nonslip element, regardless of which side you use.
The silicone is also softer and more supple than the materials in the usual flexible boards, making retrieval and storage of these boards easy and effortless. And also unlike the usual flexible boards, the “funnel” function - the ability to easily move the chopped product to a bowl or dish, as shown in the photo - can be performed easily from either side of these boards. Unlike traditional hard boards, the soft silicone won’t damage your knives and, unlike almost any other cutting board, we think the inevitable cut-marks actually enhance the design. And at the end of your cutting project, you can simply put these heat-resistant silicone boards in the dishwasher, to assure maximum sanitization and cleanliness.
