Application Overview

Separate Hot, Cold and Support Functions Within the Serving Line

Food-service lines need enough holding capacity to keep dishes ready during peak periods while allowing fast replenishment and clear customer movement. Hot dishes, salads, desserts, plates and utensils should each have a defined position.

Counter length, GN-pan quantity, glass structure, cabinet storage and electrical load should be coordinated before purchase, especially when several units form one continuous line.
