White HDPE Cutting Board Material is a food-safe, high-density polyethylene sheet perfect for professional and home food preparation surfaces. This non-porous, FDA-compliant material features a textured pebbled finish that won't harbor bacteria, absorb liquids, or retain odors, making it the hygienic choice for cutting boards, butcher blocks, and food prep areas. The natural white color provides a clean, professional appearance ideal for residential and commercial kitchens.
Easy to clean, dishwasher safe, and gentle on knife edges, this cutting board material won't crack, warp, or splinter like wood. It requires no oiling or special maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is HDPE safe for food contact?
Yes, HDPE cutting board material is FDA-compliant and completely safe for direct food contact. It's non-toxic, non-porous, and commonly used in commercial food service and food processing facilities worldwide. The material meets all safety standards for food preparation surfaces and is approved by health departments.
How do I clean and sanitize HDPE cutting boards?
HDPE cutting boards can be washed with hot, soapy water and sanitized with diluted bleach solution (1 tablespoon bleach per gallon of water) or commercial sanitizers. They're also dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. The non-porous surface won't absorb liquids or harbor bacteria like wood can, making HDPE far more hygienic than traditional wood cutting boards.
Will HDPE dull my knives faster than wood?
HDPE is relatively gentle on knife edges - softer than glass, ceramic, or bamboo but slightly harder than soft wood. The textured pebbled finish helps reduce direct knife contact. For professional kitchens, the hygiene benefits and durability of HDPE typically outweigh the minimal difference in knife wear compared to wood cutting boards.
What thickness cutting board should I choose?
1/4" works well for home cutting boards and light use. 1/2" is the most popular thickness for commercial kitchens and provides excellent durability. 3/4" and 1" thicknesses are best for heavy-duty butcher blocks, meat processing, and high-volume commercial applications. Thicker boards are more stable and last longer under heavy use.
