Hygiplas Thick Low Density Chopping Board Set (6 Boards)

This six-board set from Hygiplas provides a complete colour-coded chopping board system for commercial food preparation. Each board is made from low density polyethylene (LDPE), a material widely used in professional kitchens for its durability, ease of cleaning, and resistance to warping under regular use. The set covers the standard six colour zones used across the catering industry to separate different food types during prep.

In a busy kitchen, the risk of cross-contamination between raw meat, cooked foods, fish, vegetables, bread, and dairy is a genuine food safety concern. A properly observed colour-coded system helps kitchen teams maintain separation instinctively, even under the pressure of a full service. These boards are thick enough to provide a stable cutting surface and to withstand heavy daily use without flexing or splitting prematurely.

• Six boards covering the standard colour-coding system in one purchase
• LDPE construction — durable, easy to clean, and knife-friendly
• Substantial thickness provides a stable surface for heavy prep work
• Supports HACCP compliance and allergen separation procedures
• Suited to dishwasher cleaning for efficient end-of-service hygiene routines

At this size, the boards are practical for most prep tasks without being unwieldy on a standard prep bench. They are well suited to kitchens that need a straightforward, compliant colour-coding solution without a significant outlay. For very high-volume sites with multiple prep stations, it is worth considering whether additional sets or a heavier-grade board material would better suit the workload.

If you are setting up a new kitchen or reviewing your current food safety systems and want to talk through how colour-coded prep fits into your workflow, the team is happy to help.
