Smart, safe, hygienic: FEM’s new cutting boards get a grip in the kitchen

 FEM’s ‘gripping’ new range of cutting boards promises to be easier to use, safer and more hygienic.  Called the Saf T-Grip, the attractive boards have integrated anti-slip grips that hold them steady on the worktop, providing a safe cutting surface.  They are available in a range of six colours, for food safety task-coding, and are made of a special co-polymer that won’t warp, even when commercially washed at high temperatures.

The Saf T-Grip range provides the solution to a common problem in the kitchen: how to hold cutting boards steady on a worktop surface.  Many chefs still use the messy, unhygienic method of putting a wet towel under the board, just to stop it moving.  FEM’s new boards don’t move, whatever the surface.

The new boards feature two other useful features.  Their patented food safety hook means they can be hung to dry thoroughly.  It also allows them to be carried and stored easily and hygienically, with no need to touch the surface.  Meanwhile the integrated ruler allows chefs to quickly portion foods while they cut.

All six colours are available in a choice of three sizes: 12 x 18 inches, 15 x 20 inches and 18 x 24 inches (305 x 457mm, 381 x 508mm and 457 x 610mm).  The Saf T-Grip boards are designed to be washed in commercial washing systems.

Saf T-Grip boards are manufactured by San Jamar and are distributed in the UK by Foodservice Equipment Marketing (FEM).  They have a one year warranty and are available through catering equipment suppliers nationwide.
