John Boos Cutting Board

NSF certification indicates that the board meets rigorous standards for food safety, sanitation, and material quality. While designed for professional kitchens, this certification ensures your board is non-toxic and easy to sanitize for home use.

The board has a substantial weight of 3.72 kg, which provides a stable, non-slip base while you chop. To assist with handling, the board features recessed hand grips on the sides, making it easy to lift, flip, or move to the sink for cleaning.
