This is the standard-size high density polyethylene chopping board from Hygiplas, a straightforward and widely used piece of prep equipment in commercial kitchens. Made from high density polyethylene, the board is non-absorbent and odourless, which matters in a food preparation environment where softer or more porous surfaces can harbour bacteria and retain food smells over time.

High density polyethylene boards are a practical choice for professional prep areas because they hold up well under regular knife work, resist surface damage better than softer plastic alternatives, and are easy to clean thoroughly. The material does not absorb moisture or food juices, which supports good hygiene practice across a busy service period.

The board is available in seven colours: Blue, Red, Green, White, Brown, Yellow and Purple. This makes it straightforward to implement a colour-coded system across your prep area. Colour coding is a well-established practice in commercial kitchens for reducing cross-contamination risk. Assigning a separate board to each food type (raw meat, fish, vegetables, dairy, and so on) gives staff a clear visual cue at a glance, which is particularly useful during busy service when prep is fast-moving.

  • Non-absorbent surface resists moisture and food juices
  • Odourless and non-toxic material suitable for all food types
  • Colour coded to support HACCP and food safety compliance
  • Durable enough for regular use across a typical prep kitchen
  • Easy to clean by hand or through a commercial dishwasher

This is the standard size, suited to smaller prep stations or lighter-use roles. For kitchens with higher throughput or larger prep volumes, a larger or heavier-gauge board may be the more practical choice. If you are speccing out a full colour-coded set for a new kitchen or want to check which sizes suit your prep workflow, our team is happy to help.

Frequently asked questions

How does colour coding chopping boards help with food safety compliance?

Assigning a distinct board colour to each food type — for example blue for raw fish, red for raw meat, green for salad and vegetables — gives prep staff an immediate visual cue and reduces the risk of cross-contamination between food groups. This approach is widely recommended under HACCP-based food safety management and is standard practice in most inspected commercial kitchens.

Is the standard size suitable for a busy professional kitchen?

The standard size works well in smaller prep areas, as a secondary board at a prep station, or for tasks that do not require a large working surface. Kitchens with high prep volumes or chefs working on larger cuts may find a bigger board more practical for day-to-day use.

Can these boards go through a commercial dishwasher?

High density polyethylene boards are generally compatible with commercial dishwashers, though boards should be inspected regularly for deep scoring or surface damage — heavily scored boards can harbour bacteria and should be replaced regardless of cleaning method.
