xProfessional-Grade Cutting Surface for Any Kitchen
Equip your kitchen with a thick, durable cutting board designed to stand up to busy prep, whether you’re in a restaurant, a catering setting, or cooking at home. The Thirteen Chefs Thick White Cutting Board measures 18 by 12 inches and features a substantial 0.75-inch thickness. Built from industrial-grade high-density polyethylene (HDPE), this board offers weight and stability that helps keep your prep area steady during slicing, dicing, and carving tasks. The solid white surface reads as clean and professional, making it a reliable work surface for a wide range of ingredients from produce to proteins.
Material, Safety, and Performance
The HDPE material is a food-service approved surface, and the board carries NSF certification for restaurant and food service use. The non-porous surface helps resist stains and odors from common foods like tomatoes and wines, supporting a fresher-looking work area after frequent use. Practical care note: avoid applying undiluted bleach directly to the board, as most plastics can degrade under harsh chemicals.
- Heavy and stable: approximately 4 pounds keeps the board flat on the counter, minimizing movement while you work.
- Dishwasher-safe and heat-tolerant: withstands up to 185°F, making it suitable for commercial dishwashers and some hot processing scenarios.
- Durable surface: resistant to knife scoring, odors, and stains, with chemical resistance designed for everyday kitchen tasks.
- Professional appearance: a universal white surface that presents well in high-volume settings and home kitchens alike.
Real-Life Uses and Care Tips
Picture a bustling kitchen station where vegetables, proteins, and baked goods move quickly through prep. The 18x12 size provides ample room for large cuts, while the 0.75-inch thickness adds mass to help keep the board steady as you work. After service, the board cleans up efficiently in standard dishwashers, or you can hand wash with warm soap and water. For best results, avoid using undiluted bleach or harsh solvents on the surface.
Care and Maintenance
To keep the board performing over time:
- Clean promptly after use; dishwasher cleaning is compatible with this HDPE board.
- Avoid undiluted bleach directly on the surface.
