Our cutlery cleaning systems have proven their worth at numerous in-flight catering companies. One system, which washes and dries 70,000 items a day at peak times, has reduced washing costs to a third of what they were. Whereas before the system was commissioned, around 50 to 100 kg of cutlery had to be cleaned a second time each day, the figure is now less than 0.5 kg. Detergent consumption has fallen to 150 g per operating hour, whilst fresh water consumption has dropped to 300 l per hour.
At another in-flight caterer, our cutlery cleaning systems have reduced the return rate from 15 per cent to 0.2 per cent. Another reports that labour costs for washing up are around 20 per cent lower than before. Furthermore, the time spent on reworking is virtually zero.
We use ceramic polishing media for cutlery cleaning. It reaches every part of the cutlery but does not get caught in the prongs of the forks. And the polishing effect happens automatically.
This special cleaner performs cleaning on cutlery thoroughly and leaves no residue, even at low water temperatures – so there is no need to use energy to heat the water.
The drying granulate, made from specially treated maize cob meal, dries the cutlery reliably and without leaving marks at temperatures of up to 70 °C, and sterilises the cutlery. As a result, the washed and dried cutlery significantly exceeds the requirements set out in DIN 10510:2008-06 for hygiene standards in commercial dishwashing.
