Caterers should never underestimate the importance of regularly serving their catering equipment. For many pieces of equipment, such as frying ranges in fish and chip shop, it is a legal requirement your range is serviced and the ducting and flues are cleaned at least once a year by a professional. If you are in a busy shop then you could be required to do this twice a year or even every quarter. Failure to do so will result in your policy being declared null and void by your insurer should a claim be made.

However, regular servicing and cleaning of your catering equipment is not only a legal requirement in some cases, but also crucial to the performance of your kit. It is possible that a pan may go down on a fryer or a burner may fail to ignite on a range oven and this downtime could have a significant impact on your sales.

Remember it is not enough to simply get your equipment serviced and cleaned, it is important to use a reputable company. Using the analogy of a car – if you had just spent £40,000 on a new set of wheels, you wouldn’t take it to any old garage to get it serviced and the same thinking applies to your catering equipment.

Inspired by the Government’s Design Out Crime programme, which challenged the industry to try and design a glass that would help to make drinking venues a safer environment for customer, a new pint glass has been launched.

Utopia’s ‘Perfect Pint’ glass is designed to shatter into twice as many small pieces of glass as traditional toughened glass to further limit the possibility of glass being used as a weapon.

Utopia have been working on the various technical challenges of mass-producing safer glasses and they have been trialled at a number of major pub chains and at a broad spectrum of outlets including sports bars, students’ venues and traditional pubs.

We are now supplying the pint glass on our website in our beer glasses section in 2 styles. Both sold in packs of 24 glasses, the Perfect Pint activator glass, which features a nucleated base to help retain the head, is available for £17.72 and the normal glass is £17.35

The purchase of any commercial kitchen equipment represents a significant financial outlay, and therefore it’s essential to make the right choices. Get it wrong and it’s a costly mistake, as you may be left with expensive pieces of kit which do not deliver on the full potential.

In our experience, Fast Food restaurants utilise a vast array of different cooking styles to accommodate the complexity of the cuisine, and therefore its essential to purchase the correct equipment, so there is no need to compromise on delivering a full repertoire of dishes quickly and efficiently.

It’s evident that there are two main factors, which influence the purchasing decision making process, and that’s cost and available space! It may seem obvious, but start with the buying the basics, and make sure quality isn’t compromised in an attempt to save some money – after all, saving a few pounds can be a costly mistake if a hectic service is disrupted by inefficient equipment.

Let’s start with the basics. Equipment, such as range ovens with gas hobs for wok cooking, char grills and fryers are vital. Chose options which are sized accordingly, within your budget. For example, if the menu contains a large number of deep fried items, a twin pan fryer is essential in order to keep up with orders, however, if this is not the case, a slim line, single fryer will free up vital floor space.

Investing in a couple of high quality, small appliances can be invaluable tools for increasing the efficiency of any kitchen. Our Robot Coupe range of food processors and vegetable prep machines for example, are durable and highly versatile and can result in significant time and labour savings by reducing preparation times.

Don’t forget maintenance and servicing! Whilst thoroughly cleaning equipment at the end of the busy service may seem a time consuming chore, keeping equipment maintained and in tip top condition on a daily basis, will pay dividends in the long term. Incorrectly maintained equipment is not only more likely to go wrong, ignoring manufacturer cleaning advice and servicing schedules, can invalidate manufacturer warranties.
