For use as counters and cutting surfaces, Traditional Bamboo Countertops are a green chef's dream. This flooring, panel, and veneer manufacturer uses sustainably harvested bamboo and a food-safe, formaldehyde-free adhesive for the countertops. The vertical grain, caramelized bamboo face, and contrasting chestnut-strand bamboo core are pre-finished with a food-safe combination of mineral oil and beeswax. They contribute to LEED credits for rapidly renewable resources and low-emitting materials. Available in two sizes: 30 by 96 by 1½ inches, and 36 by 72 by 1½ inches. 800-929-6333; teragren.com. circle 715
