Keeping food safe is a major concern at busy restaurants which is why many use Food Safe HDPE. One key is to keep the kitchen and all surfaces clean and sanitized. This includes all employees washing hands regularly, cleaning
all surfaces and having food safe cutting stations. At the hub of all the food preparation is the cutting surfaces used to cut food. NSF and FDA have guidelines for keeping food preparation areas clean, and one main component is the cutting board. At home, most people cut some food for dinner and then scrub the cutting board they used before putting it away. In busy restaurants the cutting boards are used constantly throughout the day. During the slow times, kitchen staff takes time to clean. Industrial Plastic Supply, Inc. is proud to supply the premium certified HDPE materials designed for restaurant cutting surfaces.
What is the Proper Cutting Board Material to Choose for Restaurants?
The proper cutting board material to choose for restaurants is Food Safe HDPE, available in popular thicknesses like .500 (1/2″) and 1.00″. This certified HDPE sheet material is stocked in smooth and textured 2-sided options. We also offer colored cutting boards preferred by some restaurants, including Yellow (for chicken), Red (for red meat), Green (for produce), and Tan (for cooked meats). It is critical to keep hot food safe and maintain a clean kitchen, and these materials support that. We provide a wide range of sizes, shapes, and can include a waste cutout to match your needs. For busy kitchens, we offer an auto-replacement program to ensure you receive cutting board replacements on your schedule.
