Can I use a beeswax wrap on raw meat?

We don't recommend it, beeswax wraps are best kept for bread, cheese, fruit, veg, sandwiches, bowls and leftovers rather than raw meat.

How long does a wrap last?

With proper care, a wrap can last many months, often 12–18 months and can be refreshed and reused again and again.

Can I wash it in the dishwasher or microwave it?

No, please avoid hot water, microwaves, dishwashers and any direct heat source, as this will melt the beeswax coating. Cool water and a gentle hand is all it needs.

What's the wrap made from?

100% cotton fabric, coated in our own beeswax, blended with jojoba oil and food‑grade pine resin.

What happens at the end of its life?

Once a wrap is truly past its best, it's compostable, it can go back to nature rather than in the bin.

One Wrap, Endless Uses

Bread was one of the main reasons we started making these, plastic bags speed up mould, and bread bins only keep a loaf fresh for a day or two. Beeswax wraps work almost anywhere you'd reach for plastic wrap.

1 Wrap it

Lay the wrap over whatever you'd like to cover, a bowl, a loaf, half a sandwich.

2 Press & warm

Hold it against the item for a few seconds. The warmth of your hands activates the wax and helps it cling, smoother surfaces seal best.

3 Wash & reuse

Wash in cool water, let it air dry, then use again and again, for months to come.

How to use

Three Simple Steps

Not recommended for raw meat. When in doubt, use a slightly larger wrap rather than one that's just a little too small.

Rinse gently

Gently rub away any residue, then rinse thoroughly so no soap is left behind.

Lie flat or drape over something to dry, never tumble dry or wring out.

Keep away from heat

Avoid hot water, microwaves, dishwashers and direct heat, it melts the beeswax coating.
