Hubbard Ice Systems Focus on Cost Savings and Ice Hygiene at Hotelympia 2012
Hubbard Ice Systems, UK Distributors of the world leading Scotsman ice making, storage and distribution systems will be exhibiting a collection of new products aimed at helping the UK hospitality sector take cost out of their operations at Hotelympia 2012, Stand No. N1646.
Featured will be a collection of Scotsman’s labour saving and energy-efficient ice making equipment. All types of ice will be covered, including Gourmet Supercubes, Flake and Nugget, with working examples of both supercuber and flake production.
Working demonstrations of Scotsman’s unique PWD (Progressive Water Discharge) system on its latest EFC 134 Cubelet Ice making system, which compresses flake ice into a nugget or cubelet shape will be complemented by the Scotsman EC 126 PWD Supercube Ice Machine – the hospitality sector’s ‘staple’ ice machine.
The flexibility of Scotsman’s PWD system, which allows a machine to be sited up to 15 metres distant from water and waste services and 1.7m lower than any existing drain outlet, removing the need for expensive plumbing and building alterations and ensuring that ice production is kept away from algae or microbes that can be found in drain outlets.
Hygiene features large in Scotsman’s approach. Also exhibited will be its TC180 countertop, ‘hands-free’ ice nugget maker and dispenser, for the self-service market. The focus on hygiene reflects Scotsman’s high standards of operating excellence, which aim to educate users in best-practice hygiene and maintenance programmes. By removing the element of reliance on user knowledge, Scotsman have incorporated high visibility automated scheduled maintenance reminders, anti-microbial vapour protection for storage bins, incorporated AgION antimicrobial agent in moulded plastics, its patented anti-scale system, built in hygienic ice scoops and easily removed front access, condenser air filters.
All of these features are ultimately aimed at taking ‘cost-out’ of the UK hospitality sectors operating costs, by reducing down time for maintenance, and by improving the hygiene and quality of ice manufactured, stored and served. Ensuring a continuous flow of fresh and palatable ice makes Scotsman Ice Machines the first choice of many of the UK’s leading food, beverage and entertainment outlets.
Paolo Moro, Marketing Director of Scotsman Ice Systems says: “Hotelympia is still one of the most important global exhibitions, and we are pleased to be represented here by our distributors, Hubbard Ice Systems. The UK Hospitality market continues to lead us in the requirement for new, better and more efficient approaches to manufacturing, storing and dispensing ice. As one of the world’s largest manufacturers of ice machines, Scotsman is delighted to respond to those calls for new approaches, and we continue to work closely with our customers, understanding their ‘local’ requirements and developing new products to suit those requirements”.
