The Hygiplas Colour Coded Food Safety Starter Kit brings together the core elements needed to implement a colour coded food safety system in a commercial kitchen. The 17-piece set includes a knife and chopping board for each of the standard colour coded food groups, a wall-mounted reference chart, a board rack for organised storage, and a knife wallet to keep the knife set together and protected between uses.Colour coded systems are a well-established method of managing cross-contamination risk in professional kitchens. By assigning a dedicated knife and board to each food type — raw meat, cooked meat, fish, dairy, vegetables, and so on — kitchen teams can work quickly during busy service with less risk of error. The wall chart supports this by giving less experienced staff a clear visual reference without the need for constant supervision.From a practical standpoint, the kit offers several operational advantages: Separate knife and board for each food group reduces cross-contamination risk Wall chart helps onboard new and agency staff quickly Board rack keeps worktops clear and boards accessible during service Knife wallet protects blades and keeps the set together for transport or storage Low-density polyethylene boards are straightforward to clean and hold up well to regular use The knives are built to commercial standard with ergonomic handles designed for extended use, and the blades are low-maintenance — a practical consideration in kitchens where equipment needs to perform consistently without significant upkeep.This kit is well suited to smaller operations, new kitchen openings, or any site looking to formalise its food safety practices without sourcing components separately. It also works well as a starter set for trainee chefs building their first kit. Larger operations running multiple sections may need additional sets to cover each workstation adequately.If you are unsure whether this set covers your kitchen's requirements, or want to discuss scaling up for a larger team, we are happy to talk it through.
