Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Slice, a bustling artisan bakery in Cardiff, was struggling with their old set of chopping boards which had become heavily scratched and  warped. This made thorough cleaning difficult and  raised concerns about their hygiene protocols, especially when handling fresh cream and  cheeses for their filled pastries.

"We needed a board that could handle constant use without degrading. The Hygiplas boards are solid, they don't hold onto stains, and  popping them in the dishwasher at the end of a long shift is a massive plus. It has simplified our cleaning process and  gives us confidence in our prep station's hygiene."

Michael Davies – Owner & Head Baker

Since switching to the Hygiplas J016, The Corner Slice has seen a noticeable improvement in prep efficiency and  has eliminated concerns over cross-contamination, helping them maintain their 5-star food hygiene rating with ease.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Wash thoroughly with hot, soapy water before its first use.
  • Assign this white board strictly for bakery and  dairy products to maintain your colour-coding system.
  • Ensure the board is placed on a stable, flat work surface before you begin prepping.
  • For extra grip, you can place a damp cloth underneath the board.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean immediately after use to prevent any residue from drying on.
  • The board is fully dishwasher safe for a deep, sanitising clean.
  • Always store it flat to prevent any risk of warping over time.
  • Avoid placing hot pans or trays directly onto the board's surface.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Chopping Board

Not sure what to look for? Here’s a quick checklist to help you choose the best professional kitchen chopping board for your needs.

Colour Coding is Key

Using different coloured boards for different food types (like white for dairy) is the easiest way to prevent dangerous cross-contamination and  comply with HACCP food safety rules.

Material Matters

HDPE is the professional's choice. It's durable, non-porous, and  gentle on your knives compared to glass or stone, but far more hygienic and  resilient than wood for most commercial uses.

Check the Thickness

A thicker, heavier board (like this 12mm one) is more stable on the counter and  less likely to warp from repeated washing and  temperature changes. It's a sign of quality and  longevity.

Size it Up

Consider your workspace. This standard size food prep board (450x300mm) offers ample room for most tasks without completely taking over your counter. Ensure you have space to use it and  store it.

Look for Certification

A board that is listed as being suitable for a HACCP system gives you the assurance that it's designed with professional food safety standards in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this chopping board really dishwasher safe?

A: Yes, absolutely. It's made from High Density Polyethylene, which can withstand the high temperatures of a commercial dishwasher for easy and  effective sanitisation.

Q: What is the white colour specifically for?

A: In the universal colour-coding system for food safety, white is designated for bakery and  dairy products, like bread, pastries, and  cheese.

Q: Can I use this for raw meat or fish?

A: It's strongly recommended not to. To prevent cross-contamination, you should use separate, colour-coded boards: red for raw meat and  blue for raw fish.

Q: What is HDPE?

A: HDPE stands for High Density Polyethylene. It's a tough, non-toxic, and  non-absorbent type of plastic that is ideal for professional chopping boards because it's durable and  hygienic.

Q: Will this board slide around on my stainless steel counter?

A: It has a substantial weight of 1.59kg which helps keep it stable. For extra security on very slick surfaces, you can place a damp kitchen cloth underneath it.

Q: Why is the thickness (12mm) important?

A: A good thickness provides rigidity and  weight, which prevents the board from warping in the dishwasher and  makes it feel more stable and  safe to use.

Q: Will it damage my professional kitchen knives?

A: No, HDPE provides a good cutting surface that is firm enough for prep but has enough give to not dull your knife edges prematurely, unlike glass or marble boards.

Q: How do I get rid of stains or strong smells like onion or garlic?

A: The HDPE surface is non-absorbent, so a thorough wash with hot, soapy water or a cycle through the dishwasher should remove any odours or stains. For stubborn marks, a paste of baking soda and  water can help.

Why Does High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Matter?

Ever notice how cheaper plastic boards get fuzzy with knife marks and  permanently stained? That's because they're often made from more porous, softer plastics. High Density Polyethylene, or HDPE, is different. Think of its surface like a sealed, non-stick pan compared to a porous clay pot. The molecules in HDPE are packed together much more tightly, creating a harder, less absorbent surface. This means that food juices, bacteria, and  strong odours from things like cheese can't easily seep in. The result is a board that's far more hygienic, resists staining, and  won't hang onto the ghost of yesterday's sandwich prep. It's a small detail in the material that makes a huge difference to food safety and  cleanliness in your kitchen.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Independent Bakeries: Perfect for kneading dough, cutting pastries, and  general flour work on a dedicated, hygienic surface.
  • Delis & Fromageries: An essential for safely slicing cheeses and  preparing sandwiches without transferring flavours or odours.
  • Local Cafés: Ideal for all-day prep of cakes, scones, and  dairy-based ingredients for your menu items.
  • Catering Companies: A durable, portable, and  easy-to-clean board for ensuring food safety at any event location.
