How Food Grade Wood Wax Works?

When applied, the wood wax forms a thin, invisible layer over the wood surface. This layer prevents moisture absorption, repels stains, and keeps the wood hydrated. The wax also acts as a conditioning agent, maintaining the flexibility and durability of the wood fibers.
