Chopping Board Sets

Chopping Board Sets provide a complete, colour coded solution for safe and efficient food preparation in professional kitchens. These sets typically include multiple plastic chopping boards in standard food safety colours, with options for matching racks and wall charts. Designed for heavy use in restaurants, cafes, hotels and food production sites, they help you separate raw and cooked foods to reduce cross-contamination risks. Durable, non-absorbent surfaces make cleaning easier and support HACCP compliance in busy Irish catering operations.

• Low-density chopping board sets that are lightweight and easy to handle for everyday prep tasks.
• High-density chopping board sets offering superior durability and resistance to warping for heavy-duty commercial use.
• Colour coded boards for raw meat, cooked food, vegetables, fish and dairy to support clear food safety procedures.
• Chopping board sets supplied with storage racks to keep boards organised, ventilated and off the worktop.
• Options with wall charts to remind staff of correct colour usage and support training and compliance.
• Grip and thicker board options for added stability on the bench and improved operator safety.

How to choose the right Chopping Board Sets

• Match board size to your prep volume and ingredients, choosing larger boards for butchery and bulk veg prep, and smaller boards for lighter tasks.
• Decide between low-density boards for lighter, easier handling or high-density boards for maximum durability in high-volume kitchens.
• Check that the colour coding in the set aligns with your HACCP plan and existing kitchen procedures for raw and cooked foods.
• Consider sets with integrated racks if you need to save counter space and keep boards stored upright and hygienically.
• Look for non-slip or grip-style boards if your team works quickly or on stainless steel worktops to reduce movement during cutting.
• Review brand quality and replacement availability so you can easily top up or swap individual boards over time.

Care and maintenance

• Wash boards promptly after use with hot, soapy water or approved sanitising solutions to remove food residues and bacteria.
• Avoid harsh abrasives or metal scourers that can score the surface and create grooves where bacteria can harbour.
• Store boards in a dedicated rack so they dry fully between uses and do not sit flat in pools of water.
• Inspect boards regularly for deep cuts, staining or warping and replace any that can no longer be cleaned effectively.
• Keep colour coding consistent by training staff and ensuring damaged boards are replaced with the correct colour.
• If using high-temperature dishwashers, confirm the boards are dishwasher safe and follow manufacturer guidance to prevent distortion.
