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 kitchenEco InitiativesTopGourmet understands the relationship between the products we manufacture and the environment we all live in.
