Speed, precision and celebrated chef demonstrations top the bill for Unox at HRC 2023

Unox returned to HRC in March 23 to wow visitors with a varied mix of both precision and rapid cooking, a focus on energy saving in a commercial kitchen and a line-up of top chefs and culinary demonstrations across the three days in London in March.

Having originally launched at HRC in 2022, SPEED-X™, the world’s first self-washing combi speed oven took centre stage on stand H3169. Combining ground-breaking technological design with manufacturing innovation, SPEED-X utilises convection, steam and microwave cooking to produce simply unimaginable results.

Delivering unparalleled performance without compromise, SPEED-X™ achieves an impressive capacity of up to 10 GN 2/3 trays plus a dedicated SPEED.Plate position. The SPEED.Plate enables an operator to perform up to four accelerated cooking functions at once, optimising the unit for high-footfall sites.

It’s not just in the cooking process that SPEED-X saves time. The unique ROTAR.Klean automatic washing system integrates a 1L tank, water filtration system and intelligent sensors to provide up to 2000L of filtered water and instinctive wash cycle suggestions, based on the level of cleaning required. Controlling the technology is a breeze, thanks to an advanced Digital.ID® user interface. A simple, fresh digital platform allows the operator to monitor and control their oven with a single touch.

Working in conjunction with SPEED-X™ and the other award-winning combi ovens in the Unox range, visitors to the stand were also able to see Unox’s patented hot food preservation system, EVEREO® - a unit featuring the latest technology, which, when stacked with SPEED-X™ or a CHEFTOP MIND.Map, delivers a complete stacked cook-hold solution. By its very design EVEREO® allows chefs to have the ultimate decision of when and where to serve their menu. Enabling operators to pre-prepare complex dishes during quieter periods, EVEREO supports busy kitchens, by holding hot food in exact temperature and humidity conditions for up to 72 hours. Not only does this help to maintain service standards but also allows a kitchen brigade to serve customers consistent, quality and delicious meals.

Stand H3169 was not the only place where visitors could see Unox ovens in action at HRC 2023. Returning as the official equipment partner for the International Salon Culinaire 2022, Unox CHEFTOP Mind.Map® Plus 10-grid combi ovens were used by competitors across the three-day event, showcasing their skills under the spotlight. Adding even more suspense to the hotly contested competition, Unox has confirmed all live theatre best-in-class winners will be treated to a two-day VIP study tour in Italy.

Live cooking throughout the event, the UK Corporate Chef team demonstrated the full capability of Unox ovens on their stand. Joined by prominent chefs including Nathan Davies, owner of Michelin-Starred SY23, on the Monday, and Joe Moruzzi, CEO of Pleesecakes, London’s best cheesecake stores, on the Tuesday, the Unox stand was a hive of activity throughout the show.
