OLSEN+OLSEN Beeswax Food Wrap

Wash them gently in cool water with a mild, eco-friendly dish soap. Avoid hot water, as it will melt the beeswax coating, and let them air dry completely before folding or storing.

To maintain the integrity of the wax, avoid wrapping raw meat, raw fish, or extremely hot foods. The heat will cause the wax to melt, and raw proteins can be difficult to sanitize properly on a porous surface.

The warmth of your hands is the key. Simply wrap the cloth around your container or food item and hold it in place for a few seconds; your body heat softens the beeswax, allowing it to create a secure, breathable seal as it cools.

With proper care and regular use, these wraps generally last about six to twelve months. Once the wax coating begins to wear thin or no longer holds its shape, you can compost the wrap or refresh it with a new layer of beeswax.

No, you should never put these wraps in the microwave, dishwasher, or oven. High heat will melt the beeswax coating and ruin the wrap's ability to seal.
