Go for a professional cutting board of good quality. These are often made from the plastic: polyethylene and suitable for the hospitality industry. This ensures that the plank does not wear out quickly; Not even with super sharp knives. As a result, there are no grooves in it and there is no room where bacteria can nestle;
Do you have a cutting board made of wood or bamboo? Then feed it regularly with oil. With this you fill the pores and bacteria do not get a chance. You read here How you do that. It also helps against drying out the cutting board. If you do not do this, a wooden cutting board can warp or, in the worst case, split (where bacteria can once again). A wooden cutting board is therefore never allowed in the dishwasher!;
Consider going for a marble cutting board or glass cutting board. A marble or glass cutting board of course does not absorb moisture, so will not quickly warp or show cracks. This keeps it nicely flat and bacteria don't get a chance to nestle.
