Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Harbour View Bistro' in Padstow, Cornwall, needed to overhaul their prep process to improve efficiency and  prepare for their upcoming food hygiene inspection. They were using a mix of old, mismatched boards that made proper separation of food types difficult for their junior staff.

"This Hygiplas kit was just what we needed. The colour-coding is so clear that new staff get it instantly. Our prep station is tidier, safer, and  the whole kitchen flow feels more professional. The rack is a massive space-saver for us."

David Chen – Head Chef

Following the introduction of the new system, The Harbour View Bistro successfully achieved a 5-star EHO rating and  noted that staff were more confident and  consistent in their food handling practices.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, wash all boards and  knives thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
  • Place the wire rack on a flat, stable surface with good air circulation, away from direct heat.
  • Position the included wall chart in a highly visible area near your main prep station as a constant guide for staff.
  • Designate a clean, dry spot for the knife roll to keep the blades protected when not in use.

Keeping It Going

  • Always clean boards and  knives immediately after use to prevent food from drying on them.
  • The boards are fully dishwasher safe, making thorough sanitisation simple and  effective.
  • Always store boards in the rack after washing. This allows air to circulate freely, ensuring they dry completely and  preventing bacterial growth.
  • Sharpen knives regularly to maintain a safe, efficient cutting edge and  reduce the risk of slips.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Chopping Board Set

Not sure what fits best for your kitchen? Here are a few pointers to help you choose the perfect chopping board solution.

Material Matters: LDPE vs. HDPE

This set uses LDPE, which is lightweight and  kinder to your knives. It's ideal for general prep. For heavy-duty butchery, you might consider thicker, denser HDPE boards.

Colour is Compliance

A colour-coded system isn't just a suggestion; it's the industry standard for preventing cross-contamination and  is something health inspectors look for. Don't compromise on it.

Size and  Storage

Consider your counter space. This set's 450x300mm boards are a great all-round size. The included rack is a non-negotiable for hygiene and  keeping your kitchen tidy.

The All-in-One Advantage

Buying a complete commercial chopping board and  knife set like this is often more cost-effective and  ensures all your components are designed to work together from day one.

Check for Completeness

Look for kits that include a rack and  a wall chart. These aren't just accessories; they are vital parts of a functional food safety system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does LDPE stand for?

A: LDPE stands for Low-Density Polyethylene. It's a type of plastic that is lightweight, non-toxic, and  slightly softer than other types, which helps protect the sharp edge on your knives.

Q: Are the boards and  knives dishwasher safe?

A: The chopping boards are fully dishwasher safe for easy and  effective sanitisation. We recommend hand-washing the knives to maintain the sharpness and  longevity of the blades.

Q: What are the exact dimensions of one chopping board?

A: Each of the six boards measures 450mm in width, 300mm in depth, and  has a thickness of 10mm.

Q: What is the standard colour-coding for the boards?

A: Generally, the colours are used as follows: Red for raw meat, Blue for raw fish, Yellow for cooked meats, Green for salads & fruit, Brown for vegetables, and  White for bakery & dairy.

Q: Can I buy replacement boards individually?

A: Yes, Hygiplas boards are typically available individually, so you can easily replace a single worn-out board without needing to buy a whole new set.

Q: What knives are included in the Hygiplas S122 chopping board set?

A: The set includes a 10" red cooks knife, 8.5" brown cooks knife, 6" blue fillet knife, 6" red boning knife, 10" yellow serrated slicer, and  a 3.5" brown paring knife.

Q: Why is a storage rack so important?

A: The rack allows the boards to be stored upright with space between them. This promotes air circulation, ensuring they dry thoroughly after washing, which is crucial for preventing bacteria growth.

Q: Is the material non-absorbent?

A: Yes, the LDPE material is non-porous and  non-absorbent, meaning it won't soak up juices, odours, or bacteria, making it much more hygienic than wooden boards.

Beyond the Rainbow: How Colour-Coding Prevents Cross-Contamination

You've seen colour-coded boards everywhere, but what's the big deal? Think of it as a simple, foolproof traffic light system for your ingredients. In the heat of a busy service, it's easy for mistakes to happen. Cross-contamination – where bacteria from one food type, like raw chicken, gets transferred to another, like a fresh salad – is a leading cause of food poisoning. This system stops that in its tracks.

By strictly using the red board for raw meat, the blue for raw fish, and  the green for salad and  fruit, you create a powerful visual barrier. It's a 'language' every team member understands at a glance, no questions asked. This simple habit, enforced by the colour coded chopping board kit, is one of the most effective steps you can take to protect your customers and  your reputation. It’s not just about looking professional; it’s fundamental to food safety.
