How to use

A. Basically, we randomly select the pattern for you. However, if you fill in the comment field of the order sheet, such as for children or wishing for floral patterns, we try to meet your request as much as possible.

A. If you use it carefully according to the instructions, you can use it for more than a year. However, if the wrap is worn out the wax becomes tattered into flakes, please check and try our reviving method. At Kokebee, the 30cm square wrap is currently the largest size. We are considering selling larger sizes in the future, so if you have any opinions, please contact us using the inquiry form.

A. Of course! The cut cloth does not fray, so cut it into a size that is convenient for you.

A. Many people like the beeswax scent, but some people seem to be sensitive about it. The beeswax has a strong scent at the beginning, but it will fade as it is washed many times. Also, as we use natural materials as ingredients, please be assured that there is nothing to harm your health.

A. It cannot be used in the microwave because beeswax and jojoba oil will melt. Also, as it is weak against heat, please do not cover it with hot foods or place it near fire.

A. It can be put in the freezer. Once it’s taken out of the freezer, wait for the wrap to soften a little and spread it out.

A. We recommend the medium size for small sandwiches for children. Large size is recommended for adults.

A. You can also wrap rice balls. However, beeswax may melt if wrapped hot rice, so please wrap it after cooling down. Also, while wraps are new, the scent of beeswax may transfer to the rice balls. Please wash and use several times before wrapping rice balls.

A. The coating on the surface of KoKeBee Wrap may be worn out during use. In that case, you can use a sheet of baking paper, put the wrap on it, and put it in the oven at about 100 ℃ for 1-2 minutes. The the wax will melt and spread through all over the cloth, then open the oven and lift the edge of the wrap to avoid burns, wait for about 15 seconds, it will dry, Ant it’s done! If you don’t have an oven, you can put baking paper in a frying pan and put it on low heat, then put the wrap on top of it to melt the wax. Also you can put the wrap between two sheets of baking paper and iron with a low temperature.

A. The fabric used in the “Aboriginal Art Series” and the “Japanese Style Kamawanu Series” is not organic.
These two series are developed from our wish to protect the greatness of “Indigenous Australian arts and culture” and “History of Japanese traditional crafts”.
Australian Aboriginal peoples have suffered poverty, discriminatory abuse and cultural repression over a long history. As for the Aboriginal Art Series, the manufacturer used in this series pays the artist when tailoring the cloth material, so using this cloth will lead to financial support for Aboriginal artists and contribute to ethical consumption.
In addition, the “Japanese style Kamawanu series” has been realised in collaboration with Kamawanu, a shop specialising in hand towels, based on our passion for “making wraps with Japanese washcloth patterns!” It is a very nice craft shop that carefully inherits and uses the designs of the hand towels that have been used since the Heian era, so we can continue learning the ways from the past.
We would be very happy if people all over the world could feel the beauty and history of art in Australia and Japan.
