This six-piece chopping board set from Thunder Group is made from high density polyethylene and supplied in six distinct colours — brown, blue, green, red, white, and yellow — making it well suited to kitchens operating a colour-coded food preparation system. Each board is the same size, so the set works as a coordinated collection rather than a mixed-size assortment.

High density polyethylene is a practical and widely used material in commercial food preparation. It resists moisture absorption, handles repeated knife contact without excessive scarring, and holds up well through regular commercial dishwasher cycles. It is also non-porous, which supports basic hygiene practice between cleaning cycles.

The primary operational value of this set is in supporting colour segregation — a straightforward way to reduce cross-contamination risk by assigning boards to specific food types or allergen categories:

  • Brown — cooked meats
  • Blue — raw fish
  • Green — fruit and vegetables
  • Red — raw red meat
  • White — dairy and bakery
  • Yellow — raw poultry

Having a matched set of identical boards simplifies storage, replacement, and staff training, and makes it easier to enforce consistent prep habits across a busy kitchen team.

These boards are suited to prep kitchens of most sizes — from smaller independent sites through to larger operations where a dedicated set per section is the norm. For kitchens handling very high prep volumes or requiring heavier-duty boards with greater thickness, it is worth considering a more substantial option from the wider range.

If you are putting together a full colour-coded prep setup or have questions about what works best for your kitchen's workflow, we are happy to help you think it through.

Frequently asked questions

Are these boards suitable for allergen management in a commercial kitchen?

Colour-coded boards are a commonly used practical measure to support allergen segregation, with each colour assigned to a specific food group or allergen category. This set covers the six standard colours used in most kitchen colour-coding protocols. That said, boards alone do not constitute a complete allergen management system — staff training and clear procedures are equally important.

How well do HDPE boards hold up under daily commercial kitchen use?

High density polyethylene is a well-established material for commercial food preparation. It handles repeated knife contact and regular dishwasher cycles reliably, and its non-porous surface makes it easier to clean thoroughly between uses. Over time, deep scoring from heavy knife work can make boards harder to sanitise effectively, so periodic replacement should be factored into kitchen maintenance planning.

Is this set appropriate for a high-volume kitchen, or better suited to smaller operations?

This set works well in a broad range of kitchens, from smaller independent sites to larger operations where a dedicated set is assigned to each prep section. Kitchens with very heavy prep throughput may benefit from thicker, more substantial boards that better withstand intensive daily use — if you are unsure which specification suits your volume, we can help you work that out.
