A s an industry, foodservice generates 20,600 million kWh of energy a y ear, which is why reducing energy use in a business is incredibly important. Whilst consumers do not necessarily base their decision to visit a venue on its green credentials or CS R policy, these activities are crucial t o safeguarding the future of the foodservice industry.
Consumers are now savvy to sustainable agendas such as food sourcing and provenance accreditation, but sustainable operational practices still r emain less immediately obvious.
I t is the responsibility of national and independent chains alike to m aintain sustainable practices both front and back of house and share this with their customers.
Superiorplus from Gram
T
he Gram Superiorplus 72 is a forerunner in a new generation of
en ergy efficient refrigeration. Innovations in design mean it’s 44 per cent more efficient than its ‘best in class’ Plus 600 (Generation 4) predecessor. Energy use and running costs have decreased significantly from 509kWh year to 285kWh. Based on a rate of 10p per kWh, the average operator can expect to spend only £28.50 per year on the Gram Superiorplus 72, greatly improving the bottom line of an outlet.
The industry continues to innovate and is constantly evolving. The hydrocarbon refrigerants present in much of the Hoshizaki UK portfolio have a zero Ozone Depletion Potential and a Global Warming Potential of just three compared to more
damaging HFCs, resulting in more energy efficient, cost effective, refrigeration units. For example, the Gram Superiorplus 72 uses the next generation SECOP compressor technology and the unit has 100mm insulation throughout.
