  • The Good Stuff: The anti-microbial surface provides genuine peace of mind during busy services.
  • Worth Noting: Its rigidity means it has no flex, ideal for benches but not for funneling.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Willow Creek Deli in Keswick, Cumbria, needed to streamline its food prep to meet growing demand for its artisan sandwiches and  cheese platters. Their old wooden boards were becoming difficult to sanitise and  were showing their age, posing a potential cross-contamination risk.

"We switched our entire set to Hygiplas colour-coded boards, starting with this white one for our breads and  cheeses. The difference is night and  day. They don't hold stains or smells, and  the team feels much more confident in our hygiene process. They just feel professional."

Robert Davies – Owner

By implementing a strict colour-coded system with the Hygiplas F157, the deli reduced its prep station cleaning time by 20% and  completely eliminated the risk of dairy-to-meat cross-contamination.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Wash the board thoroughly with hot, soapy water before its first use.
  • Designate this white board for 'bakery and  dairy' use only to maintain your colour-coding system.
  • Place on a stable, flat work surface. A damp cloth underneath can provide extra grip if needed.
  • Ensure you have adequate space around the board for safe and  comfortable chopping.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean immediately after use to prevent food from drying onto the surface.
  • The board is fully dishwasher safe for easy and  effective sterilisation.
  • Store upright or on a dedicated rack to allow for complete air drying on all sides.
  • Replace the board if it becomes excessively worn or deeply scored over time.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Chopping Board

Not sure which board is the perfect fit for your kitchen? Here are a few key things to consider.

Material Matters

HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) is the professional's choice. It's non-porous, resistant to acid, and  won't harbour bacteria like wood can. It’s also kinder to your knives than glass or stone.

The Colour Code

Colour coding is crucial for preventing cross-contamination. White is traditionally for bakery and  dairy, red for raw meat, blue for raw fish, green for salad/fruit, and  yellow for cooked meats. Stick to the system!

Thickness and  Stability

A thicker, heavier board (like this 12mm one) is more stable and  less likely to warp. It provides a secure cutting surface that won't slide around during vigorous use.

Size Up Your Space

Choose a board that fits your workspace. You need enough room to work comfortably without being cramped. This 455x305mm board is a great all-round size for most prep stations.

Look for Certification

Always opt for a food-safe cutting board that is non-toxic and  designed for commercial use. Features like being non-absorbent and  dishwasher safe are non-negotiable for hygiene.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this chopping board really dishwasher safe?

A: Yes, absolutely. It's made from high-density polyethylene designed to withstand the high temperatures and  detergents of commercial dishwashers for effective sanitisation.

Q: What does 'anti-microbial' actually do?

A: The material is treated to inhibit the growth of bacteria on the board's surface, providing an extra layer of food safety between cleanings.

Q: Why is this board white?

A: In the industry-standard colour-coding system, white is designated for bakery and  dairy products, helping to prevent cross-contamination from other food types.

Q: Can I use this for raw meat?

A: It is strongly recommended not to. To maintain food safety, you should use a separate, red-coloured chopping board for raw meat.

Q: Will this board warp over time?

A: The high-density and  12mm thick construction make it highly resistant to warping, especially when compared to thinner, lower-quality domestic boards.

Q: Does the board stain easily?

A: The non-porous HDPE material is highly resistant to staining from food juices and  colourings. It's also non-absorbent, so it won't hold onto odours.

Q: Is the surface smooth?

A: Yes, it has a smooth, matte finish that is gentle on your knife edges while providing a stable cutting surface.

Q: What is HDPE?

A: HDPE stands for High-Density Polyethylene. It's a durable, non-toxic plastic that is the industry standard for professional, hygienic food preparation equipment.

How an Anti-Microbial Surface Actively Protects Your Food

This agent works continuously to disrupt the growth of harmful microbes like E. coli and  Listeria. It doesn't just make the board easier to clean – it actively works between cleanings to prevent bacteria from multiplying. It’s a simple, built-in feature that provides a powerful, round-the-clock layer of defence in the fight against cross-contamination.
