3.1
Performance Description
The food transport trolleys are a complete system for the transport and distribution of meals. They hold up
prepared meals and keep them warm. Food in gastronorm containers can be either put into bain-marie wells
or gastronorm containers, on grids or into baskets in heated cupboards. When switched off and with the use
of a cold storage plate, the cupboard compartments can also be used for cold meals and cold side dishes,
e.g. salads, bread, cold cuts and desserts. Bain-marie wells and heated cupboards are thermally insulated
from each other.
Food transport trolleys are mainly used to store, transport for short distances and distribute hot meals. They
can be used everywhere, where the use of tray systems is not efficient and the free choice of a portion size
is a particularly important decision criterion. The number of persons depends on the number of menu com-
ponents.
The heated plate dispensing tube with cover, the storage place for ladles and the neutral compartment pro-
vide sufficient space-saving storage options to store and transport all of the utensils required by the operat-
ing staff as well as all of the crockery/cutlery required for the guest in a single appliance.
