Clean beeswax wraps with cool water and mild soap, then let them air dry completely. Gentle care protects the wax coating; hot water and heated appliances can damage it.
Wash after use
Brush away crumbs, gently wash both sides with cool water and a small amount of mild soap, and rinse. Avoid soaking, scrubbing with abrasive pads, or wringing tightly. Let the wrap dry in an airy place before folding or storing it.
Keep away from heat
Do not put waxed wraps or bread bags in the dishwasher, microwave, or oven during ordinary use. Keep them away from hot food, hot cookware, and prolonged direct sunlight. Allow bread and other baked goods to cool fully before wrapping.
Choose suitable uses
Follow the instructions supplied with your wrap. Do not use beeswax wraps for raw meat or fish. A reusable wrap does not make food safe to keep beyond normal storage limits, and we do not claim its coating disinfects food or prevents mold.
Inspect and refresh
Check your wrap regularly for damage, contamination, or a worn coating. Lifespan varies with use and care. If a clean wrap has lost its cling, follow the product’s rewaxing instructions. Do not try to cover up mold or contamination with a new wax layer.
Store between uses
Fold or roll only after the wrap has dried. Keep it in a clean, cool, dry drawer or storage space. Follow local disposal rules at the end of its useful life; composting acceptance depends on the full materials and local facilities.
