Abstract: A chopping board comprises a slab of polyethylene 400×280×10 mm made as a unitary moulding. The board includes work face 2 and has a central chopping zone 4 which drains to a liquid sump 6 2 mm deep in one corner. The top adjacent corner is bounded by intersecting walls 8 raised 20 mm above the work face 2. The wall forms two sides of a triangular aperture 10 (9×13×9 cm), the perimeter of which together with the lower edge 12 of the walls are radiussed to avoid any flat area where chopped material may adhere due to surface tension. The contact face 12 has cavities 14 to reduce weight and volume of material. A hand grip 16 also acts as a suspension ledge for a hook.
