Combination Steam Ovens

Combination steam ovens are used in the preparation of food within the professional foodservice industry, and are also referred to as combi-ovens, combi-steamers or convection steamers. These ovens are fuelled by either electricity or gas, come in different sizes and units can be either tabletop or floor standing. Combination steam ovens combine traditional convection-based cooking with steam, to offer a range of cooking options within a self-contained appliance.

Convection Ovens

Convection ovens are used in the preparation of food within the professional foodservice industry. Heat is generated either using an electrically fuelled heating element or a gas-fired burner, and it is transferred to the food by forced air convection. Convection ovens come in different sizes, units can be either tabletop or floor standing, and are typically used for roasting, baking and browning food.

Undercounter Dishwashers

Undercounter dishwashers have high temperature sanitising processes are available in a range of different designs and efficiencies. These dishwashers are stationary rack machines, where the front door of the machine is pulled down to open the cleaning compartment in which soiled dishes, cutlery and other ware can be placed inside on either fixed or removable racks. Undercounter dishwashers are used in the operation of professional foodservice outlets to clean items that are either used to prepare or consume food, such as cooking ware, dishes, cutlery and glasses.

Hood-Type Dishwashers 

Hood-type dishwashers have high temperature sanitising processes and are available in a range of different designs and efficiencies.  These dishwashers are stationary rack machines that are designed to accommodate standard professional dishracks. Hood-type dishwashers are used in the operation of professional foodservice outlets to clean items that are either used to prepare or consume food, such as cooking ware, dishes, cutlery and glasses. The compartment hood is raised in a vertical motion to access and insert a rack of soiled dishes, cutlery and other ware into the clean compartment.
