Grove Co. Bamboo Prep Board
Grove Co.
Bamboo Prep Board
A budget bamboo board from a B Corp that does not disclose its adhesive or finish. That non-disclosure holds it at 3, so we point you to a better-documented bamboo board instead of putting a shop button on this one.
A budget bamboo prep board from a B Corp, but Grove does not disclose the glue or the finish, so it lands at 3 with the honest note that the material story is incomplete.

What's inside
The board is 100% bamboo, but Grove does not disclose the adhesive used to laminate it or any factory finish. Bamboo itself sheds plant fibers, not microplastics, but a laminated bamboo board needs a glue, and here it is simply not published. The company's B Corp and 1% for the Planet credentials sit at the company level, not on this board.

About Grove Co.
Grove Co. is the house brand of Grove Collaborative, a public benefit corporation founded in 2012 in San Francisco to make buying lower-tox home essentials easy. Grove sells its own cleaning, paper, and personal-care line alongside vetted products from hundreds of other brands.
Grove Collaborative is a certified B Corp, confirmed in B Lab's registry, and markets itself around moving beyond plastic. It describes itself as plastic neutral through offsets rather than plastic-free, and it stepped back from an earlier plastic-free pledge, so claims vary by product across its marketplace and house line.
