Titan vs. Wood vs. Plastic - The Comparison

Professional kitchens and private households often use cutting boards made from various types of wood. These have several advantages, such as their soft material texture, which is well below the hardness of your kitchen knives, ensuring that your knives stay sharp for a long time. At the same time, however, every cut can create nicks and grooves in the wood, in which bacteria can settle due to the penetrating liquid from meat or fruits and could become a danger to your health:

Unlike wooden cutting boards, the advantages of plastic cutting boards are obvious: they are often very inexpensive, can be used in many colors and shapes, and can be purchased anywhere. But plastic cutting boards also come with a very big disadvantage: namely the danger that can arise from abrasion when cutting on them: microplastics! 

During the manufacturing of plastic cutting boards, plasticizers and other substances like BPA - or Bisphenol A - can sometimes be used to make the plastic shatterproof and at the same time keep it flexible.
