Contamination-Proof Cutting Boards

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Cutting Board Set Visually Reminds You Not to Contaminate

— June 27, 2013 — Art & Design
Color-coated and differently printed, this cutting board set of four reminds you visually which board should be used to cut certain types of food. This pack, called Slice Cutting Board Set, was designed to prevent cross contamination in foods.

The back side of each board should match the food you will be cutting on it. Green is for vegetables, orange for fish and red for meats. While the one side has a colorful food pattern, the other side is completely white with grid-like scaling that will help you cut any food precisely.

These board designs are not only aesthetically refreshing, but are meaningful in their purpose. The boards also come with an acrylic stand to keep all four organized.
Trend Themes
1. Color-coated Cutting Boards - Opportunity for manufacturers to develop color-coated cutting boards as a solution to prevent cross contamination in foods.
2. Visual Reminder Design - Potential for designers to create cutting boards with visually distinctive patterns to remind users about the specific food types they should be cutting on each board.
3. Multi-purpose Cutting Boards - Opportunity for innovators to design cutting boards that have multiple sides with different functions, such as grid-like scaling for precise cutting and patterned side for food categorization.
Industry Implications
1. Kitchenware Manufacturing - Disruptive innovation opportunity for kitchenware manufacturers to produce color-coated cutting boards that effectively prevent cross contamination.
2. Product Design - Potential for product designers to create visually reminder cutting boards with distinctive patterns for different food types, catering to health-conscious consumers.
3. Home Organization - Opportunity for companies specializing in home organization products to develop multi-purpose cutting boards with accompanying stands for better kitchen organization.
