Chopping Board Tables

Commercial chopping board tables are the unsung heroes of busy restaurant kitchens and food prep areas across the UK. Combining sturdy stainless steel frames with integrated cutting surfaces, these professional prep stations create dedicated workspaces for everything from meat preparation to vegetable chopping. With hygiene-certified chopping surfaces and heavy-duty construction, they're designed specifically for the demands of commercial food preparation—far more robust than standard kitchen tables. After 50 years equipping professional kitchens, we've seen how these tables transform workflow when paired with commercial refrigeration and knife racks, creating efficient prep zones that boost productivity and maintain food safety standards.

  • Allow 900mm-1000mm working height—ensures proper ergonomics for staff.

How Commercial Chopping Board Tables Work

Commercial chopping board tables merge practicality with food safety in one clever design. At their core, they feature a robust stainless steel frame and worktop with either an integrated or replaceable food-grade chopping surface—typically made from polyethylene, wood, or composite materials. Most models include an upstand or splashback that prevents cross-contamination with walls, while adjustable feet ensure stability on uneven floors. The genius bit? Different coloured boards can be used for specific food types (red for raw meat, green for veg), maintaining strict hygiene protocols. When boards wear down, they're easily replaced, making these tables both practical and cost-effective for busy kitchens!

Safety Guidelines

  • Regular Sanitizing Clean thoroughly between different food types—prevents contamination.
  • Heat Awareness Don't place extremely hot items directly on boards—prevents warping.
  • Inspect Regularly Check for deep cuts and cracks—harbours for bacteria.
  • Timely Replacement Change boards when heavily worn—maintains food safety.
  • Level Positioning Ensure table is stable—prevents accidents during chopping.
  • Proper Technique Train staff on safe cutting practices—reduces injury risks.

Top Tips for Using Commercial Chopping Board Tables

To maintain your chopping board table in top condition, establish a regular sanitizing routine using food-safe cleaners between different food types. Consider implementing a colour-coding system—red boards for raw meat, blue for fish, green for vegetables—to prevent cross-contamination. Replace worn boards promptly; once knife marks become deep, they can harbour bacteria. For wooden surfaces, regular oiling with food-grade mineral oil maintains the integrity and extends lifespan. And always check adjustable feet regularly to ensure stability on busy prep days.
