Acrylic Cutting Boards

These tough but stylish looking boards can also be used for holding hot pots or casserole dishes on your table or countertop.

The main drawback with these strong surfaces, of course is the wear and tear on your kitchen knives.

These hard surfaced boards will dull your knives much quicker than the softer surfaces of wood cutting boards.


Serrated knives will last longer but will eventually have to be replaced. Your board, however will last a very long time.

Although these boards are harder on your knives than wood cutting boards, they need no upkeep other than cleaning and sterilizing. They require no sanding or oiling, just the usual good kitchen hygiene. For more cleaning information see Cutting Board Care.




For general kitchen use these boards are a reasonable choice. The toughness, heat-resistant, and easy cleaning qualities may or may not outweigh the dulling of your kitchen knives. It's a matter of personal preference.
