Refrigeration for Cool Customers

LEC under-counter catering fridges and freezers, these special catering models are designed specifically for the catering market and available in a white or stainless steel finish to suit the surroundings. They are ideal for workplace self-catering facilities, as well as pub kitchens, small catering operations and back bar storage.

Sturdily built with hygienic, easily cleaned and impact-resistant white plastic interior walls, the fridges and freezers have reversible doors with a continuous handle for ease of opening. The 153 litre capacity under-counter fridges and 116 litre freezers operate efficiently in ambient temperatures of up to 32 degrees C. Both use environmentally friendly CFC, HFC-free cyclopentane foam insulation and R600a (HC) refrigerant.

The refrigerators have forced air cooling to ensure even temperature distribution of between +1 to +5 degrees C throughout the cabinet. The freezers operate between -18 to -25 degrees C and have four wire drawers for easy organisation of frozen products.

A clear digital temperature display ensures food is stored at the correct temperature and there is a temperature alarm in case of severe temperature rises, for example, if the door is left open too long or the power fails.

Small Chiller Gives The Big Chill

For convenience in supplying a variety of menu items quickly, and to order, many kitchens use a blast chiller to chill hot food they prepare in bulk cooking sessions. Until recently blast chillers and freezers have been the preserve of larger catering establishments as they have tended to be big and expensive items of equipment. But now, with the introduction of the compact Ital Lampo blast chiller, this technology is within reach of smaller establishments both in terms of cost and space.

The Ital Lampo, available from Carlton Sales, is a compact blast chiller and freezer combined that offers all the power of the larger models - rapidly chilling food to +3 degrees C in 90 minutes and shock freezing to -18 degrees C in 240 minutes - without compromising the freshness and taste. With a storage capacity of 29 litre and measuring just 620 x 600  x 400mm, the Lampo can hold 3 x 2/3 gastronorm pans but is small enough to fit on, or under, a countertop, tucking in alongside existing equipment.

Simple controls and robust, stainless steel construction ensure the Lampo will withstand the demanding environment of a busy commercial kitchen with a full one-year parts and labour warranty.

Eco Pro Refrigeration For Local Eco School

Foster Refrigerator recently presented Ashwicken First School with one of their award winning Eco Pro Refrigerators. Foster felt that the local school was deserving of such a donation due to their continual demonstration of exceptional green initiatives.

Such green initiatives have included the school’s garden area where the pupils plan to grow and sell produce, recycling schemes and a school travel plan (involving the encouragement of car sharing and walking along safe routes to school), and the newly built eco-friendly solar-panelled classroom. As verification of their green credentials, Ashwicken has been granted permission to fly the coveted ‘Green Flag’ above their school, meaning that they are recognised as being part of the International Eco-School Project.

The School will use the refrigerator on a daily basis to store the “5-a-day” fruit and ingredients for their Healthy Cookery Club. The product also has enough space to store children’s packed lunches in order to keep them chilled in the hot weather. Upon receipt of the product donation, Sue Collison Headteacher of Ashwicken First School, said, “We are very grateful to receive such a brilliant fridge which is energy efficient and fits in with our school’s eco commitment to actively promote reductions, re-usage and recycling.”

John Savage, Foster Refrigerator Foodservice Director, said, “Ashwicken First School has clearly made a great effort to implement eco-friendly initiatives, and we feel that this reflects the policies of Foster Refrigerator perfectly.” He also went on to add, “It gives us great pleasure to donate our award winning Eco Pro cabinet to the local eco-champions of tomorrow.”

Gamko Refrigeration Update

Further to Gamko joining the world wide ITW group of companies in 2008 and here in the U.K our relocation to Trafford Park, Manchester we would just like to confirm that as always Gamko “in our 51st year” is here to serve you the customer.

The following article is the first of our customer updates that we will be sending out to keep you up to date, we have also included a little history just in case this is your first Gamko experience? Research and production facilities in the Netherlands (Etten-Leur) offer Gamko the flexibility
to build products to the customer’s specification. Various aspects such as design, functionality and dimensions play a major part in this. Up to date production methods warrant that high quality products can be offered at competitive prices with flexible lead times.
“Bar design begins with Gamko” is not only our tag line, for thousands of customers over Gamko’s fifty years of business it is true, with a considerable portfolio of products Gamko has satisfied customer requirements through out the world and with extensiveproduct development lead by customer consultation this is set to continue.
One of Gamko’s biggest strength is its range of products from plug ready to remote back/
front bar through to stainless steel or the new Flexbar applications it is believed that the
possibilities from one manufacture of bar equipment is unrivaled. Our current leading range is Maxiglass with under counter cabinets available from 140 to 315 litres, hinged or sliding doors and standard features that include factory set electronic thermostat, door locks, automatic defrost, chrome plated shelves (two as standard with each cabinet) and a low maintenance condenser ensuring that even in the toughest of environments the appliance will work to its optimum.

With a standard external finish of anthracite (black) and the option of stainless steel on hinged models the benefit of Maxiglass is weather you have a single, double or triple door model, the look, performance and reliability ofthe product does not alter. In addition we have two tall upright models comprising of a single door hinged and a double door hinged and sliding model (300 and 500 litres respectively) again with anthracite or on the hinged models the option of stainless steel external finish. To compliment Maxiglass there is also a two model range of under counter glass frosters, available in stainless steel you have the option of solid or glass door with a
minimum temperature of -21°C. For the quick serve outlet slide top coolers provide the perfect capacity and availability of bottled product with three models in the range from 130 litres (200 x 33cl bottles), 210 litres (315 x 33cl bottles) and 375 litres (560 x 33cl bottles) all with stainless steeltops, you have the option of an anthracite or stainless steel body and with features which includes a separate drain point for internal cleaning and locks, this is truly the complete appliance. As an option, castors are also available to create the ideal satellite serving point.

You may say that to give a customer too much choice can be confusing, however, we would argue that situations can be unique to the customer. Why should they have to accept the take it or leave option or indeed purchase a single and a triple door cabinet that although may be from the same source have only the vehicle that delivered them in common. In addition to the Maxiglass we have Eco-Line, a range of cabinets that offer larger capacity and the option to cool with a remote condenser taking any heat or perceived noise made by the bottle cooler away from the bar area.

Gamko can truly offer the one stop bar solution in addition to bottle coolers, keg coolers can give that value for money option when draft dispense is required without the option of cellar facilities and with counter top refrigerator and freezer coolers where else would you need to look.

We would also like to bring to your attention our latest additions to the range, Flexbar and stainless steel modular front bar systems. Flexbar can offer everything or your choice of what you require to complete a back and front bar that will create a flowing service area, with bottle storage to coffee stations. With coloured LED and central electronic locking among the features this truly is the ultimate in “what the customer wants the customer can have”. Gamko considers that in order to create the perfect bar the front bar serving area has to compliment the back bar display refrigerated sections.

Many manufactures and importers in today’s sales environment seem to base their marketing around free product and offers and not the bottle cooler however, at Gamko we rely on the quality and functionality of our products, with cabinets in excess of fifteen years old and still performing we believe this is a benefit worth shouting about.
