Hobart UK
A reputation for innovation, combined with a heritage of manufacturing excellence enables our expert teams to develop machines with features that make healthcare kitchen life easier and more productive.
From the fastest, most cost-effective, energy smart warewashers to multi-functional cooking solutions that save time, energy, water, and food wastage. Hobart has developed equipment for every operation.
Your Company’s Approach to Healthcare:
Hobart has a range of innovative machines designed and built on the core principles of simplicity and performance, helping provide tangible, real-world savings for healthcare caterers.
We’re proud supporters of the NACC, HCA and NHS and have several solutions to help meet the challenges of caterers and chefs in the healthcare sector head-on, including the Hobart Care Package – a range of equipment specially selected by our expert team to make healthcare kitchen life easier and more productive. By working with care operators and through long-term partnerships with key associations, we have been able to create this package, built around three unique healthcare catering challenges – simplicity, price, and hygiene.
Impact of Your Products/Services on Healthcare:
Warewashing
Hobart Care Dishwasher
Hobart’s Care machine is the most cost-effective, professional warewasher on the market, offering absolute peace of mind in the form of thermal disinfection – a core consideration in the healthcare market – with hygienic drying of two racks of ware in just 10 minutes. All this performance in a compact, undercounter footprint.
Featuring simple, single-button operation, as well as short, standard, intensive, and thermal disinfectant cycles, the Care machine is easy to clean and energy efficient.
For smaller sites processing reusable plastic cups, bowls and bottles, Hobart’s Care machine also offers the best possible drying results. A simple, specially developed rack system ensures that light wash ware won’t topple over and stays in position during the cycle for the perfect wash coverage.
Two Level Washer
When space is limited and maximum output is required, this award-winning machine doubles the capacity and productivity of a conventional hood-type dishwasher within the same footprint. For added peace of mind and improved hygiene management, a dedicated hygiene cycle keeps the machine fresh and improves machine maintenance.
With the option to use the lower chamber as a dedicated utensil washer for pots and pans, the Two Level Washer washes different types of ware simultaneously, saving time and simplifying the entire dishwashing operation.
Cooking
When it comes to healthcare cooking solutions, Hobart boasts some of the simplest, best value machines on the market.
High Speed Steamer
The Hobart High Speed Steamer is the ideal partner for healthcare kitchens, where getting nutrition on the plate quickly, consistently and in an appealing way is a major concern for chefs.
The use of ‘dry’ steam under pressure dramatically reduces cook times compared to traditional methods and accelerated cook times enable chefs to cook on demand, helping to cut down on food wastage.
Adjusting the cook time by mere seconds also means chefs can achieve varying consistencies of food – making it easy to cater for individual dietary requirements, which we know can be a huge challenge for healthcare kitchens.
Combi Ovens
Hobart boasts one of the most reliable and easy to operate range of combi ovens on the market including the space-saving Minijet – an innovation that delivers all of the performance of a full-sized oven in a compact package and can be used with either single or three phase electricity – perfect for smaller kitchens where space is limited.
Ecomax Cooking Range
Hobart’s Ecomax range offers high performance, build quality, ease of use and reliability at affordable prices. For larger sites the Ecomax Combi comes in budget friendly six or ten grid lines with humidity control, automatic wash system and an internal core probe included as standard.
The range also includes single and twin tank, gas and electric fryers, as well as gas and electric salamander grills that can sit freestanding on modules or be wall mounted, seamlessly expanding the potential of healthcare menus, to offer greater choice and keep patients and residents engaged in their food.
Future Direction:
Future Direction
In terms of warewashing, our expert teams use ground-breaking, patented technology to continuously push the boundaries towards optimum efficiency, developing new machines that reduce energy, and save on labour, water, and detergent, whilst maximising wash capacity.
This deep routed commitment to development, allied to an ongoing dedication to boundary pushing technology, enables Hobart to take customer satisfaction and machine performance to new levels whilst constantly striving to reduce operating costs. We have a host of new machines in the innovation pipeline, joining our newly launched Undercounter Collection – the first undercounter dishwasher to be awarded ETL certification, taking pride of place on the government’s approved list of energy efficient products.
On the cooking side, we are excited to be running exclusive previews throughout summer 2024 to our public sector partners of an exciting new chef developed innovation launching in late summer. Watch this space!
