Recycled Cutting Boards: Beyond Sustainable Design

Let’s be honest—eco-friendly shouldn’t mean settling for bland or purely functional. At House of Nulu, we believe that conscious living and beautiful design belong in the same sentence. Our recycled plastic cutting boards prove that earth-friendly kitchenware can be vibrant, bold, and deeply personal.

Innovative Materials, Elevated Design

Every House of Nulu board starts with a material that’s surprisingly ordinary: ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). Often used in industrial settings, we reimagine it into bold, beautiful forms that give it a second life and purpose. That’s what makes our work circular—and extraordinary.

• Exceptional durability — Resists cuts, impacts, and daily wear.
• Food-safe and non-toxic — Ideal for everything from meal prep to stylish serving.
• Low-maintenance elegance — Stain-resistant and easy to clean.
• Smooth performance — Knives glide effortlessly, preserving sharp edges and keeping kitchen prep a delight.

The real magic is in the transformation. We turn recycled food-grade plastics, once bound for landfill, into vibrant sheets of UHMWPE. From there, we craft our signature House of Nulu boards—fusing innovative recycled materials with modern design.

Giving Plastic a Second Life

Plastic often carries a complicated reputation. But at House of Nulu, we see possibility where others see waste. Our process embraces the principles of the circular economy, ensuring materials are reused, reinvented, and reborn into beautiful, functional pieces for your home.

We:

• Collect post-consumer plastic waste—from bottle caps to food packaging.
• Clean and reprocess it under strict food-safety standards.
• Create unique UHMWPE sheets infused with striking color blends.
• Shape these sheets into cutting boards that are as modern as they are meaningful.

The result? Not merely a cutting board, but a piece of innovative homeware that turns everyday rituals into moments of joy.

Two Iconic Designs. Infinite Personality.

At House of Nulu, we believe kitchen tools should do more than perform—they should express who you are. That’s why our cutting boards come in two distinctive designs, each crafted to balance beauty and purpose.

These boards feature a sleek, rectangular silhouette with softly rounded corners and practical grooves along the edges to catch juices or liquids—perfect for clean, efficient meal prep. Crafted at a generous 1.8 cm thickness, they feel solid and substantial, offering a weight that anchors them firmly on your countertop.

• Zesty Zest → An electrifying neon lime green with a translucent marbled effect that seems to glow—a bold pop of color that energizes any kitchen and makes a modern, playful statement.

Why Choose Recycled Plastic?

Traditional materials like wood, glass, or bamboo each have limitations:

• Wood can warp, crack, or harbor bacteria over time.
• Glass is heavy, prone to breakage, and less forgiving in a busy kitchen.
• Bamboo can splinter, stain, or absorb moisture.

House of Nulu’s recycled UHMWPE boards stand apart:

• Substantial and solid, with a satisfying heft that conveys quality.
• Crafted from thick, premium recycled plastic for both durability and aesthetic presence.
• Resistant to moisture, stains, and lingering odors.
• Infused with unique color patterns for a vibrant, modern aesthetic.

Choosing recycled plastic kitchenware means less waste, lower carbon footprints, and a home filled with products that reflect your values—without compromising on beauty or performance. Our boards aren’t just tools; they’re statement pieces that feel like stages for whatever you choose to place on them.

House of Nulu boards combine beauty with everyday practicality. To care for yours:

• Wash with warm, soapy water.
• Dishwasher safe.
• Avoid harsh scouring pads.
• Place a damp towel underneath for extra grip during chopping.

Unlike wooden boards, ours won’t warp, stain easily, or retain food odors—making them perfect for low-maintenance, modern living.
