Premium quality you can trust

John Boos & Co. recycles 95% of all raw materials generated during production. Our waste and surplus wood are used as a sustainable fuel to heat our kilns. The sawdust is used as bedding for livestock by our local agricultural partners.

As the oldest manufacturer of its kind in the United States, John Boos & Co. is synonymous with the highest quality, food safety, and environmental protection. Our artisans work with great respect and care using natural materials, and we use only renewable, sustainably sourced hardwoods from North America, including maple, black walnut, and American cherry. Working closely with various stakeholders—including forest management organizations (NHLA), food safety authorities (NSF), and culinary experts—we ensure compliance with strict safety and sustainability standards. This commitment contributes to a better culinary world and helps preserve our planet—vibrant and rich in resources—for future generations, so that future chefs, too, can prepare their masterpieces on durable hardwood surfaces.

John Boos & Co. also actively monitors air quality in accordance with all local and state regulations regarding hazardous air pollutants (HAPS) and complies with all air quality standards set by the EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency).

Our foresters use the best possible methods to conserve resources, and the John Boos brand is recognized as a sustainable and renewable solution for eco-effective design.

We are committed to giving back to our local communities through volunteer work and charitable organizations. Our hardwood products embody green design, and we strive to foster a culture of consistent environmental responsibility within our team.
