Noturīgs pret trūdēšanu – mizas ārējā kārta ir izteikti izturīga, tāpēc paliknis kalpos ilgi arī virtuvē.
Dabīgs un videi draudzīgs – bērza tāss ir atjaunojams materiāls, parasti iegūstot to no kritušiem vai tīri apstrādātiem kokiem.
Siltumizturīgs – labi der kā karsto trauku paliktnis, jo nevada siltumu tik ātri un nesaplaisā no karstuma. ">
Such a birch bark coaster (≈14 cm diameter) is a very characteristic traditional and functional item with several natural advantages:
🌿 Properties
Moisture-resistant – birch bark contains natural resins (betulin), which make the material resistant to moisture. It does not absorb water and does not mold as easily as untreated wood.
Antibacterial – natural substances in the bark inhibit the development of bacteria and fungi. Therefore, bark has historically been used for dishes, bread storage, and food
preservation.
Decay-resistant – the outer layer of the bark is distinctly durable, so the coaster will last long even in the kitchen.
Natural and environmentally friendly – birch bark is a renewable material, usually obtained from fallen or properly processed trees.
Heat-resistant – it works well as a coaster for hot dishes, as it does not conduct heat quickly and does not crack from heat.
