Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Squid, a popular seafood bistro in Brighton, was struggling with countertop clutter and  ensuring their chopping boards were always air-dried properly to meet food safety standards.

"It's such a simple thing, but it’s made a massive difference. No more boards leaning against the splashback or taking up prep space. Everything is neat, dry, and  ready to go. The team can grab the right board without thinking."

Ben Carter – Head Chef

The kitchen team reported a noticeable improvement in workflow efficiency and  confidence in their hygiene management, especially during peak weekend service.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Unpack the rack and  remove all protective wrapping.
  • Give it a quick wash with warm, soapy water and  a sanitiser before first use.
  • Place on a flat, stable work surface away from direct heat sources.
  • Check that your existing chopping boards fit comfortably into the 15mm slots.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down daily with a food-safe sanitising spray as part of your cleanup routine.
  • For a deeper clean, the stainless steel rack is fully washable in a commercial dishwasher.
  • Regularly check the base and  corners for any build-up and  scrub if necessary.
  • Avoid using harsh abrasive scourers which can scratch the stainless steel finish.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Kitchen Storage

Not sure which storage solution is right for your kitchen? Here are a few things to consider.

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the industry standard for durability and  ease of cleaning in a commercial kitchen. It won't rust and  can handle tough sanitisers.

Count Your Boards

Choose a rack that can hold all the boards in your colour-coded system, with a spare slot if possible for future additions.

Check the Thickness

Measure your thickest chopping board before you buy to ensure it will fit comfortably in the rack's slots without being forced in or out.

Airflow is Key

Prioritise open-frame designs like this one. They allow boards to air-dry properly on all sides, which is crucial for preventing bacterial growth.

Measure Your Space

Check the rack’s footprint (width and  depth) to ensure it will fit on your counter without obstructing your main prep and  work zones.

Why an Open-Frame Rack is a Hygiene Hero

Ever wondered why a simple rack is better than just stacking boards? It's all about air circulation. When you lean wet boards against a wall or lay them flat, moisture gets trapped, creating a perfect breeding ground for bacteria. This tiered rack's open design is like a personal drying rack for each individual board. Air can flow freely all around every surface, ensuring they dry quickly and  evenly after washing. Think of it like hanging laundry on a line instead of leaving it in a damp pile – one gets fresh and  dry, the other stays musty. It's a small design detail that makes a huge difference to your kitchen's overall food safety.

  • School & College Canteens
