Commercial Cutting Boards FAQ

What is the most sanitary type of cutting board?

Plastic cutting boards that are NSF-certified are the most sanitary type of cutting board. The NSF certification is given to kitchen tools that meet the health and safety regulations for safe food preparation.

What cutting boards do chefs use?

Professional chefs choose cutting boards that best suit their kitchens and the types of foods they prepare. Quality, ease of cleaning, and color coding are all important features chefs need from their cutting boards to protect their knives, countertops and to safely prepare food for their guests.

Is a wood or plastic cutting board better?

Both wood and plastic cutting boards have benefits. A plastic cutting board is more sanitary and easier to clean (can be put in the dishwasher), but they are not attractive to use in front of guests.

What is the difference between a cutting board and a chopping board?

A cutting board is a portable board made from plastic, wood, or composite material used for cutting, slicing, and chopping ingredients. A chopping board is also referred to as a butcher block and is permanently attached to a table or counter and not moved (unless the entire table/unit is on casters).
