From Skate Parks to Cutting Boards
What do skateboarders and foodies have in common? They're both
cutting it up on the same durable material. In 2003 Top Gourmet
was founded by custom skate park manufacturer TrueRide as a way
to repurpose excess skating surface material used by the company.
The founders of TrueRide knew of the history of the surface
material in commercials kitchens, so creating a line of home food
prep surfaces from scrap was as natural as, well, skating on it.
TrueRide skate parks last for years outdoors with extensive abuse
from both weather and skaters, so you can be sure your TopGourmet
Cutting Surface can handle even the hardest working kitchen

TopGourmet Wood Fibre Materials
TopGourmet cutting surfaces are fabricated using eco friendly
materials that gain their natural look and texture from the
contents that comprise them. Each colour is composed of a
set of fibre sources layered together and pressed along with a
food safe resin, to form a sheet that has unequalled food
preparation properties. Each color of TopGourmet cutting surfaces
has slightly different features based on the blend of its
sources, though all of them share the fact that they are a wood
fibre kitchen tool that is dishwasher safe
