The LADLEPC130 is a 1oz portion control ladle used in commercial kitchens to serve sauces, dressings, and liquid condiments at consistent volumes. Operators in restaurants, catering operations, and hotel kitchens use this tool to maintain portion accuracy during high-volume service. The 330mm handle length allows staff to work with deep containers without hand contact with hot or cold liquids.
Commercial Application
Portion control ladles reduce ingredient waste and standardise plate presentation across shifts. In fast-paced service, measured dispensing removes guesswork and speeds up ticket completion. Staff can rotate between stations without retraining on portion sizes.
During plating, the 28ml capacity matches standard recipe card requirements for sauces and garnishes. The black polycarbonate body does not stain when handling curry, tomato-based sauces, or oil emulsions. One-piece construction eliminates crevices where food particles accumulate between service periods.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the LADLEPC130 suitable for high-temperature applications?
A: Polycarbonate is rated for hot holding temperatures up to 100°C but should not be used for direct stove-top stirring or oven insertion. The material withstands steam table service and hot bain-marie environments. For open flame or direct heat contact, stainless steel ladles are required.
Q: Can this ladle handle acidic sauces without material degradation?
A: Food-grade polycarbonate resists acids in vinaigrettes, citrus reductions, and tomato-based sauces without leaching or surface pitting. The material does not react with common kitchen pH levels. Long-term storage of highly acidic preparations should still follow manufacturer food safety guidance.
Q: Does TurcoBazaar ship the LADLEPC130 to North America?
A: Yes. TurcoBazaar ships to the USA and Canada with consolidated freight options for larger orders. Lead times for transatlantic shipments range from 7-14 working days depending on destination and customs clearance. Bulk orders receive freight quotations before dispatch.
Q: Are replacement ladles available if units are damaged during service?
