Isobox. Mobile food transport boxes to get food from A to B smoothly, easily and safely, at the right temperature. Ideal for multi-site operations, they give caterers the opportunity transport food from the CPU to satellite kitchens, or from the kitchen to the customer (including patients in healthcare settings). Includes individual compartments that can be configured to keep food hot (up to 90°C), cold (down to 4°C) or ambient as required, for as long as necessary.

ThermaDry. Drop-in servery units that don’t require a water connection and offer up to 63% lower energy consumption than a Bain-Marie with tubular element and 700kW connected load. This is based on comprehensive trials that show ThermaDry can save around £150 per year due to the energy consumption.

Easy Rider. Our unique racking system, which offers up to 100% more shelf space with the same room size, plus easy installation, easy cleaning and a host of sustainability benefits. Shelves can be moved along traversable rails, with no need for walkways, to maximise space.

Removable shelves enhance capacity and cleaning too.

Focused on sustainability, Hupfer UK will also buy back all stainless steel and aluminium shelving and trolleys at the end of its useful life, to be recycled under our Buy Back Guarantee.

Hupfer UK has achieved a milestone in sustainability by publishing carbon footprint data for all its shelving products under the TM65 methodology. This framework, established by CIBSE (Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers), allows manufacturers to assess the environmental impact of products throughout their lifecycle—from material extraction and manufacturing to repair, disassembly, and disposal.

Marc Sumner, Sales & Marketing Director at Hupfer UK, expressed pride in this achievement: “TM65 is a recognised methodology for calculating and comparing the embodied carbon footprint of products. Publishing these figures for our shelving range reflects our commitment to sustainability and supports our customers in making informed, eco-conscious choices. This initiative, alongside our Buy Back Guarantee on shelving and trolleys, gives customers reliable tools to enhance their sustainability efforts.”

Hupfer UK’s carbon footprint data is now available online, giving transparency and supporting customers’ sustainability goals in commercial kitchens and healthcare environments. The company’s first Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) report is expected in 2025, underscoring Hupfer’s dedication to environmental stewardship.
