Caring for Plastic Cutting Boards
A thermoplastic cutting board, made of virgin high density
polyethylene resin, is virtually indestructible in terms of
cracking, warping, chipping, peeling and acid corrosion. Plastic
cutting boards will not absorb odors or moisture due to it’s
molecular makeup, therefore cleaning agents and surface residue
simply rinses away. The vast majority, if not all, independent/government
institutions agree on washing the high density polyethylene
cutting board using a hot soapy water solution and scrubbing
with a brush. If your cutting board fits in the dishwasher,
this is an even a more effective/efficient method for cleaning
especially if you have a sanitizer feature equipped on the dishwasher.
