Cutting board maintenance and eventual replacement are a never ending problem in every commercial kitchen.  Until now, there have been two equally unacceptable options for dealing with the problem: sanding the boards or purchasing new ones.  Cutting Board Resurfacing, LLC (CBR) has perfected the only proactive, cost-effective, sanitary, convenient and eco-friendly solution. They even guarantee that with normal usage and cleaning, your cutting boards will remain in compliance with all applicable Health Code regulations for up to 6 months.  Customer satisfaction is why CBR has been able to thrive and even expand during these difficult economic times.

CBR’s unique method of resurfacing uses a highly modified, industrial planer mounted in a mobile workshop to shave off thin layers of contaminated and stained plastic from the surface of the cutting boards.  This process, in addition to being eco-friendly, is less costly than purchasing new boards every time. After repeated passes through the machine, the board is restored to “like new” condition.  The newly restored surface exceeds all Federal, State and local regulations and guidelines for primary food contact surfaces, including the definitions for “smooth” and “easily cleanable.”  Both sides of the board are resurfaced, the edges are beveled and any sharp corners are rounded.  The typical 3/4” thick board can be resurfaced 6-9 times before it is reduced in half to 3/8” thick (which is still a very functional board). Often, when large boards need to be replaced, portions of them can be cut up into smaller hand boards.  After resurfacing, these boards can be reused in other areas.  This free service extends the functional lifespan of the board and reduces the need to purchase new hand boards. In addition to saving our clients a lot of money, this “green” practice helps keep salvageable plastic out of the landfill. 

When the time comes to purchase new cutting boards, CBR can often measure, cut and install new boards that day.  CBR uses only the highest quality, food grade cutting board material.  They stock a variety of thicknesses and colors to meet your needs.  Inexpensive cutting boards wear out quickly, warp during high temperature cleaning and are often unable to be resurfaced.  With regularly scheduled service discounts, clients receive the highest quality boards at prices lower than what they have been paying for low quality boards.

Regularly scheduled clients receive 50% off the price of all new plastic, a discounted or free trip charge depending on the size of the job and our 6 month worry free guarantee that your boards will remain in compliance.  These benefits help to ensure that the cost of cutting board maintenance and replacement remain stable and predictable from year to year allowing their customers to proactively budget.
