About the Bee Wrap

Bee Wrap Use
The Bee Wrap is thermoformable, the fabric adheres and adapts to the desired shape thanks to the heat of your hands.

The Bee Wrap ensures that your food is well preserved, whether in the open air, in the fridge or in the freezer.
Avoid direct contact with meat and fish.
It depends on your use, but on average it can be used 500 times, which is 500 times more than plastic cling film !

Bee Wrap Composition
- Organic cotton fabric: The vegetable fibre is insulating, strong and resistant
- Bees wax: Impermeable to bacteria and moisture
- Pine resin: One of the factors that make the beewrap anti-bacterial
- Jojoba oil: Prevents dehydration and allows for proper preservation of food

Bee Wrap Care
You can wash your Bee Wrap with soap and cold water, rubbing with a non-abrasive sponge.
Hot water, even lukewarm, will cause the Bee Wrap's beeswax to dissolve and evaporate, making it much less effective... For the same reasons, do not put it near a heat source such as an iron, hotplates or dry it on a radiator or in the sun.

Tips to give your Bee Wrap a second life
After a few months of use, place the Bee Wrap on a sheet of greaseproof paper and put it in the oven for 5 minutes at 80° with a few flakes of natural wax (you can find some in ecological drugstores), which will revive its active principle. Leave to cool completely before removing from the oven.

Furoshiki

A roll of wrapping paper is not very expensive. However, if you think about it, it is a package that you buy to throw away! With the Furoshiki, you have more attractive, personalised and environmentally friendly gift packages.

It's not difficult to fold, you just need to learn the basics. Once folded, your packaging will hold together thanks to the knots.

Here are some examples of basics techniques and we will give you more in our "News" section:
