How Long Do Beeswax Wraps Last?

Key Takeaway: Abeego wraps can last over a year with the right care. When they start to wear, consider refreshing your collection and find clever ways to upcycle old wraps.

How long does Abeego last?

It depends on use. With regular love and care, you’re looking at a solid year with your Abeego wrap. To get the most out of your wraps, here are the two most important tips. 

1. Wash in Cold Water only
2. Avoid raw meats, steamy heat, and greasy foods

We think of Abeego wraps, like a favorite t-shirt you don’t want to part with. It's had a solid run, seen some good times, but people are starting to talk, so it needs a replacement. Same with Abeego wraps!

When’s the time to swap for a new one?

Even with Abeego’s staying power, it’s a consumable item. You’ll know it’s ready for an upgrade when it feels thinner, the wax shows some wear, or the fabric starts coming through. That’s your cue for a fresh wrap.

What if I use a worn-out Abeego?

Using it too long is fairly common but when your wrap starts to stain easily, catch food odors, and (the kicker) let more air in, which means fresh food doesn’t stay fresh as long.

Reusable and Tough
