This Hygiplas set provides a complete colour-coded chopping board system in extra large format, comprising six high density polyethylene boards — one in each of the standard colour codes — along with a wall-mounted storage rack and a colour reference chart. It is designed to give a kitchen everything it needs to implement a structured food safety and cross-contamination prevention regime straight out of the box.

High density polyethylene is the material of choice in most professional kitchens for good reason. It is firm enough to withstand heavy daily chopping and slicing, resistant to moisture absorption, and straightforward to clean and sanitise. The extra large board size suits prep work on larger cuts of meat, whole fish, and bulk vegetable preparation — tasks where a standard-sized board becomes a limiting factor during a busy service.

The practical advantages of running a full six-colour system are well understood in commercial kitchen operations:

  • Clear visual separation of food groups reduces cross-contamination risk
  • Wall rack keeps boards off the worktop and allows air drying between uses
  • Colour chart supports staff training and ongoing compliance checks
  • HDPE surface is compatible with standard commercial dishwasher cycles
  • Extra large format accommodates bulk prep tasks without repeated repositioning

Because the boards are supplied at a substantial size and weight, it is worth confirming that your existing wall rack position or storage arrangement can accommodate them comfortably. The rack supplied is designed for this set specifically, so integration into an already established board storage system may need consideration.

This set is well suited to kitchens that are setting up a colour-coded system from scratch, or replacing a worn set across the board. Smaller operations working with limited prep space may find a standard or medium format more practical day to day. If you are unsure which board size suits your prep volumes or kitchen layout, the team is happy to help you work through it.

Frequently asked questions

Is the extra large size suitable for all commercial kitchens?

The extra large format works well in kitchens with dedicated prep areas and sufficient worktop or storage space. In tighter kitchen layouts or smaller operations, a standard or medium board size often proves more practical during daily service. If you are unsure, it is worth considering the typical scale of your prep tasks before committing to this size.

How should the boards be cleaned and maintained in a busy kitchen?

High density polyethylene boards of this type are compatible with standard commercial dishwasher cycles, which is the most reliable method for thorough sanitisation. The boards should be inspected periodically for deep scoring or surface damage, as heavily grooved boards are harder to sanitise effectively and should be replaced as part of routine kitchen maintenance.

Does this set satisfy food safety and allergen management requirements?

A six-colour coded system is the recognised approach in UK commercial kitchens for separating different food groups and supporting allergen management procedures. The inclusion of a colour reference chart helps reinforce consistent practice across the team. That said, the boards form part of a broader food safety framework — correct usage, cleaning discipline, and staff training remain essential alongside the physical equipment.
