This pack of six small chopping boards from Hygiplas is a straightforward colour-coded system designed to help kitchen teams manage food safety during prep. Each board is colour-designated to a specific food type, making it easier for staff to reach for the correct board without thinking twice — a simple but effective way to reduce the risk of cross-contamination in a busy kitchen environment.

Made from high density polyethylene, the boards are non-absorbent and non-toxic, which matters in a kitchen where prep surfaces take repeated contact with raw proteins, produce, and allergens. HDPE resists knife scoring better than softer plastics, and the surface doesn't harbour bacteria in the way that porous materials can. They clean down quickly, hold up to dishwasher cycling, and don't warp or split under normal commercial prep conditions.

  • Colour-coded system reduces cross-contamination risk during prep
  • Non-absorbent HDPE surface is hygienic and easy to clean
  • Resistant to knife marks and surface degradation under regular use
  • Suitable for dishwasher cleaning in commercial kitchens
  • Pack of six supports full colour-coded coverage across food groups

These boards are well suited to smaller prep stations, satellite kitchens, or as a supplementary set alongside full-size boards. For high-volume operations producing large batches, a larger board format may be more practical — but for general-purpose prep, portioning, and garnish work, this size is a reliable everyday choice.

If you're building out a full colour-coded prep setup or need guidance on board sizing for your operation, the team is happy to help you put together the right combination.

Frequently asked questions

How does the colour-coding system work in practice?

Each board colour corresponds to a specific food type — typically red for raw meat, blue for raw fish, yellow for cooked meat, green for fruit and vegetables, white for bakery and dairy, and brown for root vegetables. Having a designated board for each category helps staff make the right choice quickly without relying on memory, which is particularly useful in kitchens with a mix of experience levels or high turnover.

Are these boards suitable for heavy daily prep use?

They are well suited to regular prep and portioning tasks. High density polyethylene is a proven material for commercial chopping boards and handles consistent daily use reliably. For operations involving very large batch prep or sustained heavy chopping over long shifts, a thicker or larger board format may offer longer service life.

Can these boards be cleaned in a commercial dishwasher?

Yes, HDPE boards are generally compatible with commercial dishwasher temperatures and detergents. It is worth checking your dishwasher's cycle temperature against the manufacturer's guidance to avoid prolonged exposure to extremes that could cause warping over time, though under normal commercial conditions this is rarely an issue.
