Product Overview
Here’s a kitchen essential that's a cut above the rest. The Araven FU795 is a professional, colour-coded chopping board designed specifically for preparing raw fish. Forget flimsy boards that slide about and harbour germs; this one is built from tough, high-density material with clever non-slip corners, making it a reliable workhorse for any commercial kitchen focused on hygiene and safety.
It's tailor-made for businesses where food safety isn't just a guideline, it's the law. From bustling seafood restaurants and fishmongers to large-scale caterers and hotel kitchens, the Araven blue cutting board 404x304x24mm provides a stable, dedicated surface to prevent the dangerous cross-contamination of raw fish with other foods. The generous size gives you plenty of room to work, while its solid build means it won't warp or bend under pressure.
Combining practical design with long-lasting durability, this board is more than just a surface—it's a cornerstone of a safe and efficient kitchen workflow. The white body makes it incredibly easy to see when it's spotless, and being fully dishwasher safe makes clean-up a doddle. If you’re serious about food prep, this is the board that works as hard as you do.

Expert Review and Insights
Araven has really thought about the day-to-day grind here. This isn't just another plastic board; the co-moulded non-slip feet are a standout feature, as they won't break off or trap grime like cheaper alternatives. It feels substantial and provides the confidence you need when working with sharp knives and slippery fish. It's a simple tool, executed perfectly.

- Pros: The non-slip corners are part of the board, not just feet.
- Cons: Its solid build makes it heavier than standard domestic boards.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Old Boathouse, a popular seafood bistro in Salcombe, Devon, needed to overhaul its food prep stations to meet updated food hygiene regulations. Their old collection of mismatched, worn-out boards were becoming a liability.
"The stability of these Araven boards is fantastic. The lads in the kitchen feel much safer when filleting, as there's absolutely no slipping on the stainless steel counters. The clear colour coding has also made our workflow much tidier and more professional."
Michael Edwards – Head Chef
After implementing a full set of Araven boards, The Old Boathouse passed their next environmental health inspection with top marks and noted a significant improvement in kitchen efficiency.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, remove all packaging.
- Give the board a thorough wash with hot, soapy water before its first use.
- Assign it to your 'Raw Fish' preparation area to maintain your colour-coding system.
- Ensure the surface it's placed on is clean and flat to maximise the non-slip grip.
Keeping It Going
- Clean immediately after use to prevent food residue from drying on.
- Use a stiff-bristled brush to clean any light score marks.
- For a deep, sanitising clean, the board is perfectly safe for a commercial dishwasher cycle.
- Periodically check for deep cuts or heavy scoring, and replace the board when the surface becomes difficult to clean effectively.

A: It's made from High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), a durable, non-porous material ideal for professional kitchens.

A: Absolutely. It is designed to be fully reversible, effectively doubling its working life.
Q: Is it safe to put in a commercial dishwasher?
A: Yes, it is fully dishwasher safe, allowing for easy and effective sanitisation.

Features like the permanent non-slip corners and the easy-clean white body aren't just for show—they directly reduce the risk of accidents and hygiene breaches.

It's a choice that reflects a commitment to quality and safety, from the prep station to the plate.
Explore more from AravenHow Integrated Corners Keep Your Kitchen Safer
Ever had a chopping board where the little rubber 'feet' fall off, leaving it wobbly and useless? Araven solves this with 'co-moulded' non-slip corners. But what does that actually mean? Instead of simply gluing rubber feet on, the non-slip material is fused directly into the main board during manufacturing. Think of it like the tread on a car tyre – it's part of the tyre itself, not something stuck on afterwards. This means the corners will never fall off, create unhygienic gaps where grime can hide, or cause the board to rock. It’s a small detail that delivers huge benefits in day-to-day safety and long-term hygiene.
Who Should Buy This?
- Seafood Restaurants & Fishmongers: A must-have for hygienically filleting and prepping the catch of the day, ensuring safety and compliance.
- Busy Pub & Hotel Kitchens: An essential part of a colour-coded system to prevent cross-contamination in high-volume environments.
- Mobile Caterers & Food Trucks: The durable, non-slip design provides a stable and safe prep surface, even in tight or temporary setups.
- School & Hospital Canteens: Perfect for kitchens where upholding the strictest food safety standards is non-negotiable.
