Good Wine Deserves Fine Cabinets
Like the finest vintage wines Liebherr has taken time to develop and mature its wine storage solutions
Your end-users in foodservice and hospitality will invest a lot in their stock of wines. It’s here where quality and temperature will impact on their customer experience and repeat business. Liebherr will take care of wine whatever the environment in purpose-designed wine cabinets, storing and displaying them so they are satisfying every time.
The Liebherr range of wine cabinets feature heating and cooling circuits as well as air filtration. The LED lighting is dimmable in each zone and UV protection is standard to present wines in their best light while maintaining optimum storage and serving temperatures. The model shown is a WTes 5972 Vinidor and it can hold up to 211 0.75l Bordeux bottles in multi-temperature zones from +5 to +10 degrees celcius.
Effectively displaying and storing wine will encourage impulse and repeat sales. Liebherr has worked hard on its design and R&D to provide refrigerated cabinets that support these goals. The following features in the Vinidor range facilitate this:
- Single / multi / 2 & 3 zone models for exact storage and serving temperatures
- LED lighting with heating and cooling circuits in each zone
- Activated charcoal filters for optimum internal air quality
- Low vibration compressors
- Double glazed and solid door options
- Stainless steel and choice of colours for cabinet finishes.
The Liebherr wine storage range is designed, built and tested in-house to the highest quality and performance standards.
Liebherr GB Ltd will form part of Liebherr’s impressive presence at Host 2019 in Milan, October 18-22 and we would like to invite all ceda members and colleagues who are planning to be there this year to call by and see us. We also plan to launch a new key product range at the show that have been developed to meet customer demand in commercial foodservice.

Water Hardness Causing Issues for your Foodservice or Hospitality Business?
Water Hardness Causing Issues for your Foodservice or Hospitality Business?
New Online Water Hardness Checker Can Help
As many businesses operating in the foodservice, catering and hospitality industries will know, water hardness can be a factor in the performance of water-fed equipment. ‘Hard’ water can negatively affect coffee machines, dish washers and washing machines amongst other appliances by causing limescale which reduces efficiency and can shorten the life of the machine.
ceda Silver Partners Aqua Cure are happy to announce the launch of a new tool that allows people to check the water hardness of their mains’ supply according to their postcode. The UK Postcode Hard Water Checker uses nationwide data on water hardness to provide detail on the level of water hardness in that area, identify potential issues caused by the water and suggest some potential solutions to the problem.
The Managing Director of Aqua Cure David Parkes commented on the newly launched postcode checker:
“We wanted to create something useful for people to gain relevant information about their home. We have vast knowledge of the water industry and we wanted to pass on our experience in an easy to use, simple way”.

ceda Silver Partner Blue Seal Pizza Solutions
ceda Silver Partner Blue Seal Pizza Solutions
Blue Seal Commercial pizza ovens are traditional Italian style, stone base deck ovens, perfect for cooking delicious deep-base or thin based pizza. Designed for everyday professional use, these powerful electric ovens cook at high temperatures to ensure fast service and great cooking results. The Blue Seal Pizza electric ovens are a fantastic alternative to, wood burner stoves or gas ovens which are higher maintenance and require more specialist and costly extraction systems to take away smoke and fumes. Our ovens accommodate 4 x 12” pizza per deck, they are compact, versatile and very operator friendly.
Blue Seal offer single deck and twin deck ovens, which operate up to 400 degrees centigrade giving optimum cooking temperatures for decks of their size. The single deck can be stacked onto the twin deck very easily creating a triple deck, maximising the output from the floor space. The Blue Seal oven chambers, all function independently allowing the pizza chef to control temperatures and bake more types/sizes, of pizza’s at once, therefore reducing serving times for busy restaurants.
We appreciate that restaurants need un-compromised, consistent quality results from the equipment they use. That is Why Blue Seal Pizza ovens use accurate thermostatic temperature control, eco- compatible material for thermal insulation and high quality refractory stones which provide excellent heat retention. Each chamber has top and bottom temperature control, so the Pizza chef can adjust the performance of the chamber to suit baking pizza either in pizza pans, or traditionally straight onto the stone. These ovens compliment the rest of the Blue Seal product range very nicely, maintaining the power /performance & reliability expected from our brand.
ceda Silver Partner Synergy Grill Technology raise the steaks with outdoor grill launch
ceda Silver Partner Synergy Grill Technology raise the steaks with outdoor grill launch
Cambridge based company, Synergy Grill Technology, is delighted to introduce a range of superior Outdoor Cook Stations to their commercial grill portfolio: a range of grills that allows operators to tap into the thriving outdoor catering scene in time for the summer surge.
Unlike traditional outdoor units which lose heat rapidly, thus requiring regular restoration of coals, the Synergy Grill Outdoor Unit is able to maintain a powerful, consistent heat thanks to a combination of fuel injection air gas technology and natural ceramics. Thermal shock resistant bars also allow chefs to cook a higher volume of food, safe in the knowledge that the temperature will remain consistent which is something unheard of within the outdoor grilling sector.
Like Synergy’s indoor counterparts, the Synergy Outdoor Grill Unit uses on average 59% less gas compared to commercial gas grills of similar sizes, thus less gas bottles are required during outdoor food services, allowing for a more cost-effective, storage-savvy solution. An innovative gas distribution valve within the Outdoor Units also allows operators to easily switch from one bottle to the other without having to change gas pipes which proves particularly useful during busy trading periods. Add to this the fact that the Outdoor Unit is large enough to hold two 13kg propane gas bottles, and operators are left with a truly practical unit.
Justin Cadbury, Chairman of Synergy Grill Technology, is delighted to see the brand enter the outdoor cooking market:
“We are pleased to launch our Outdoor Synergy Cook Stations following the tremendous success of our indoor grills: a unit which turns outdoor areas into excellent revenue earners. When using an outdoor grill, many catering professionals are unable to decide whether gas is the most convenient, if charcoal produces a better flavour or if electric is the most reliable. The Synergy Grill can offer the benefits of all three, along with stress-free, high-quality cooking without compromising on the food quality served.
He continues:
“Outdoor cooking is an easy and simple way to increase food revenue during the summer months, whether it’s a fine dining restaurant or casual pub dining.
The cleanliness of the Synergy, as well as its environmental excellence, which has now been Accredited by the Carbon Trust, opens new avenues for pub gardens etc.
With the peaks and troughs experienced with outdoor food service, Synergy Grills allow the chef to focus on the cooking, rather than worrying about the temperature of the equipment. From succulent steaks, chargrilled chicken, juicy sausages, veggies and more, Synergy’s outdoor grill technology ensures perfect grilling results time after time.”
Complete with heat capturing ceramic technology to guarantee a cleaner, safer, greener and more succulent quality of food, Synergy’s new Outdoor Cooking Station truly excels on every front.
Available in wood cladding or stainless steel, the mobile grill is available in Synergy SG630, SG900 and SG1300 sizes. Featuring sturdy, lockable castors which make it easy to manoeuvre, the Outdoor Cook Station extends beyond the kitchen to provide fantastic additional revenue for caterers throughout the Spring and Summer months.
Synergy Grill also offer a wide range of accessories that prove ideal for outdoor grilling including a rotisserie accessory, garnish rails and griddle plates.

Ceda Appoints New Chair, Vice Chair and Regional Chairs to Lead the Association
Derek Maher has been appointed as the new Chair of ceda with Kirstin Hatherley joining him as Vice-Chair. The two appointments were announced at ceda’s 2019 Conference along with the appointment of two new regional Chairs for the North and South, Paul Neville and Tyron Stephens-Smith respectively.
Derek has been at the helm of Crystaltech, the UK’s largest independent specialist in the installation and servicing of all makes and models of commercial glass and dishwashing equipment, for over 38 years.
Commenting on his new role Derek said “I have been an active member of ceda since 2003 and have been part of the ceda Technical Steering Group for several years and seen first-hand how that has helped to improve industry standards and our membership. In the role as ceda Chair, I hope to build on the links that I have with other associations and institutions to the benefit of our growing ceda membership and the industry as a whole.”
New Vice-Chair, Kirstin Hatherley, is Managing Director of Hatherley Commercial Services, where she has worked since 2005. She has been ceda’s Northern Regional Chair for the last two years and sits on the ceda board.
Paul Neville of CHR Equipment steps into Kirstin’s shoes as he moves from Northern Regional Vice-Chair to Chair the region and Tyron Stephens-Smith of TAG Catering Equipment makes the same move in the South from Vice-Chair to Chair.
Commenting on these new appointments ceda Director General Adam Mason said “I’m really pleased that Derek, Kirstin, Paul and Tyron have agreed to take on their respective positions. They are all passionate about positively developing ceda and the wider Industry and I look forward to working with them all to grow and develop the impact of what we do.”
In a final announcement concerning changes to ceda’s leadership team, Ian Bass of Gratte Brothers, stepped down as ceda Treasurer after 17 years of service. Winning one of the first three ceda Legacy Honours at this year’s conference, Ian’s outstanding service to both the industry and ceda was recognised at the Gala Awards Dinner.
Adam Mason went on to say “It has been a pleasure and a privilege to work closely with Ian for the last four years and I know I speak on behalf of my predecessors in saying that. He is a class act and a true gentleman. The contribution that he has made to the Association over so many years will never be forgotten.”
