Commercial Kitchen Equipment | Streamline workflow with an efficient utensil washer.
Eliminate Manual Cleaning of Commercial Kitchen Equipment and Achieve Consistent, Bacteria-Free Results
Both nationally and internationally, we often encounter professional kitchens equipped with only a single-service dishwasher, which has limited capacity for handling glassware, crockery, and cutlery.
Larger kitchen items, such as pots, pans, oven trays, chopping boards, and serving dishes used in food production, are typically washed by hand. Unfortunately, this method rarely ensures optimal hygiene:
"This approach to cleaning is problematic – not only in terms of achieving consistent and high hygiene standards but also in minimising water and chemical usage, thus promoting sustainability," explains Evita Rosdahl, CEO and owner of JEROS.
Manual washing often fails to reach the necessary temperatures, allowing harmful bacteria such as listeria and salmonella to survive. Additionally, when cookware is dried with tea towels, bacteria can be transferred back onto the washed items.
For this reason, we strongly recommend that all large kitchens invest in two types of dishwashers: a standard service dishwasher for everyday items and a heavy-duty utensil washer designed to handle the larger, heavier equipment from food production.
Evita adds, "The advantages of having two utensil washers – one for service and one for warewashing – are considerable, offering numerous benefits such as enhanced workflow, improved kitchen hygiene, optimal ergonomics, and more environmentally sustainable dishwashing.
All JEROS utensil washers are designed for ease of use, allowing operators to conveniently access both dirty and cleaned cookware. The professional utensil washers feature an upward-opening design, providing access to the machine from three sides."
With a service dishwasher and a heavy-duty utensil washer from JEROS, the kitchen at Cookery on Funen achieves a better production flow and consistent hygiene.
Let us help you ensure a high level of hygiene in your commercial kitchen ⇨
The benefits of an automated washing process include:
- Improved and more efficient workflow in the kitchen.
- Consistent and thorough wash quality with clean, recirculated water.
- Optimal hygiene, with items disinfected using 85°C hot water.
- A reduction in washing time by up to 80% compared to manual cleaning.
- The ability to clean 3 to 4 times as many items simultaneously as manual washing.
- Enhanced hygiene, as the heavy-duty utensil washer ensures proper cleaning of pots, pans, and other large items.
- More environmentally friendly and sustainable dishwashing, with up to 80% water savings and reduced chemical usage.
- Better ergonomics, as dishes are placed on trays that are easily rolled into and out of the machine, eliminating heavy lifting and reducing strain.
The utensil washer is a key component of a well-functioning kitchen
The JEROS range of commercial kitchen equipment includes eight utensil washers, each of which can be tailored to meet your specific requirements and needs.
Our largest models—such as the Model 9130, Model 8150, and JEROS ACE/Weigh Head Cleaning—are commonly used in professional kitchens. The heavy-duty dishwasher is a vital component of a complete dishwashing workstation:
"At JEROS, we refer to this setup as a 'pass-through machine.' More specifically, it's a fully integrated fixture for commercial kitchens, typically comprising a pre-rinse table with a sink on one side of the utensil washer, and a loading table on the other.
This bespoke arrangement allows the operator to easily separate dirty and clean cookware, with large trays of dirty items being brought in from the side, washed in the utensil washer, and then transferred to the clean cookware table.
When we demonstrate the time, resources, and cost savings achieved by investing in a complete workstation with a utensil washer, we share the same excitement as our clients. A heavy-duty utensil washer completes one load in just 3 to 6 minutes, with water consumption as low as 4 litres per wash, depending on the model.
This enables the kitchen to efficiently handle large and heavy items while also ensuring that the process is far more environmentally sustainable, thanks to reduced water and energy usage, compared to traditional manual washing," says Evita Rosdahl, CEO and owner of JEROS.
