Corporate DNA: Pioneering High-Performance Kitchenware Since 1996
Since its establishment in 1996, Ningbo Chef Base Kitchen Co., Ltd. has focused on the research and development and manufacturing of kitchen cutting boards. In the field of plastic cutting board production, we have always led the industry with our rich experience and innovative spirit. As the pioneer of antibacterial cutting boards, we have 20 design patents to ensure that our products are always at the forefront in terms of functionality and innovation, aiming to meet the increasingly diverse needs of consumers.
Over the past three decades, the global supply chain has shifted significantly toward sustainable resource utilization and rigorous chemical compliance. Under the direction of the EU Green Deal and global ESG investment frameworks, sustainable procurement is no longer optional—it is a critical commercial mandate. Ningbo Chef Base Kitchen Co., Ltd. bridges this gap by merging industrial scalability with high-precision engineering, producing food contact materials that meet and exceed standards like FDA, LFGB, and REACH.
Reshaping Kitchen Values: Four Pillars of Product Design
The vision of Ningbo Chef Base Kitchen Co., Ltd. is to reshape the value of cutting boards in the kitchen. We know that although cutting boards are inconspicuous, they play a vital role in the cooking process. We are fully committed to creating healthy, safe, environmentally friendly and easy-to-use cutting boards, making them an indispensable part of the kitchen.
Healthy and antibacterial
Using cutting-edge technology and high-quality materials, we ensure that the cutting board has long-lasting antibacterial properties to protect the health of you and your family.
Safe use
The anti-slip design and knife protection mechanism of the cutting board make you feel more at ease when cooking, while extending the life of the knife.
Environmental protection concept
From raw material procurement to production and manufacturing, we adhere to the principle of green environmental protection, ensure that the product is recyclable, and contribute to environmental protection.
Humanized design
Raw and cooked separation, water guide groove, easy to clean and store, every detail is designed to optimize your cooking experience.
China Factory 4.0: Supply Chain Resilience & Efficiency Advantage
Leveraging smart manufacturing, automated extrusion, and digital quality monitoring to maintain global competitive advantages.
Located in the manufacturing hub of Ningbo, China, our production facilities represent the integration of Industry 4.0 principles with green factory initiatives. We operate high-tonnage multi-component injection molding systems, automated sheet extrusion lines, and specialized CNC woodcraft stations. By automating raw material mixing, feeding, and temperature regulation, we eliminate human error and achieve micro-tolerance consistency across production batches.
Furthermore, our digital warehouse management system (WMS) and automated quality control loops track every production batch from pellet to packaged product. Our facility features zero-waste closed-loop recycling loops for thermoplastics, ensuring that production scrap is purified and safely reprocessed for non-food contact applications or specialized structural layers. With a robust local supply chain of raw materials and direct proximity to the Ningbo-Zhoushan Port—the world's busiest port by cargo tonnage—we offer international buyers unmatched logistics resilience and stable lead times.
Technical Roadmap & Material Science Future Outlook
How we engineer next-generation polymers and natural composites to transition from low-carbon to carbon-neutral kitchenware.
Upcycled Bamboo & Wood Fiber Composites
Integrating agricultural bi-products with high-density polymers to reduce plastic consumption by up to 50% while increasing tensile strength and knife resistance.
Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Integration
Partnering with global resin producers to supply verified food-grade PCR HDPE and PP. This initiative cuts carbon emissions by 40% compared to virgin plastic profiles.
Marine Conservation Series
Developing kitchen prep surfaces from ocean-bound marine waste plastics, using high-heat molecular cleaning to guarantee food safety compliance.
Macro-Level Industrial Solutions for Global Brands
Supporting multi-channel retail systems and commercial food services with scalable ODM, OEM, and private label frameworks.
We supply private label platforms, hypermarket chains, high-end culinary boutiques, and hospitality distribution networks. Our industrial solutions optimize product lifecycles and packaging volume, directly lowering shipping container requirements and associated ocean freight emissions.
Through our advanced custom mold design services, we can develop custom product geometries, dual-molded handle grips, and custom integrated prep features within a 25-day rapid prototyping window. Our color customization systems use laser-guided spectrometer matching to match your brand's palette, using heavy-metal-free, organic pigments that meet strict global safety standards.
Localized Support & Compliance Regulatory Assurance
Proactive alignment with international chemical standards and product testing protocols.
Chemical Safety Standards
All manufactured items undergo regular laboratory screening for heavy metals, plasticizers, and bisphenols (BPA-free, Phthalate-free). We maintain compliance with EU Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 on plastic materials intended to come into contact with food.
Antibacterial Efficacy Testing
Our antibacterial plastics undergo rigorous evaluations according to ASTM E2180 and JIS Z 2801 standards. These tests verify a reduction of 99.9% in common pathogens like Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.
Forestry & Sourcing Audits
We source raw materials for our wooden and bamboo products, including acacia, walnut, and rubberwood, from sustainably managed plantations. Our materials carry verified chain-of-custody documentation to prevent deforestation.
Global Enterprise Procurement Requirements
A professional framework designed for sourcing departments, purchasing managers, and supply chain directors.
Flexible MOQs
Starting from 1,000 to 3,000 units depending on the complexity of customization, custom tooling, and material configurations.

Auditing & Transparency
We welcome third-party inspections (SGS, TUV, Intertek) and offer full transparency for factory ESG and social compliance audits (BSCI, SMETA).
Lead Time Commitments
Standard production runs are completed within 30-45 days. We also offer automated forecasting protocols for repeat contract orders.
Technical & Procurement FAQ
Clear answers on material composition, customization capabilities, and international certification standards.
How is long-lasting antibacterial performance achieved in your plastic cutting boards?
We integrate micro-dispersed silver-ion and zinc-ion antimicrobial agents directly into the polymer melt during injection molding. Unlike topical coatings, this compound remains evenly distributed throughout the product structure. It continues to inhibit bacterial growth even after years of surface wear and commercial dishwashing cycles.
What materials are used for your sustainable cutting boards, and are they FDA-compliant?
We offer boards made from sustainably harvested acacia, walnut, rubberwood, pure titanium, and food-grade plastics like HDPE, PP, and EVA. All materials used in our products are 100% compliant with FDA regulations for food contact (FDA 21 CFR 177.1520) and have passed European LFGB food-safety tests.
Can you accommodate custom shapes, dimensions, and brand embossments?
Yes, we provide full OEM/ODM services. Our factory utilizes high-precision CNC equipment and custom injection tooling to develop products to your specifications. Brand logos can be applied using laser etching, debossing, or multi-color overmolding, depending on the product material.
How do you verify the sustainable sourcing of your wood and bamboo items?
We verify that all wood and bamboo raw materials are sourced from plantation-harvested crops or sustainably managed woodlands. Every shipment complies with international timber import regulations and includes full chain-of-custody documentation.
Are your plastic cutting boards dishwasher safe?
Yes, our high-density plastic cutting boards (PP, HDPE) are engineered to withstand the temperatures of commercial and residential dishwashers. They are designed to prevent warping, bending, or degradation over extended periods of thermal exposure.
Specialty Sustainable Kitchenware & Utility Prep Surfaces
Refining standard prep tasks with specialized materials, including high-density composite sheets, titanium boards, and exotic woods.
