This offer ends in:
The HTC2FA is a gantry-mounted buffet warmer fitted with two independently controlled infrared lamps and a heated stainless steel base plate. It holds two GN1/1 pans and maintains serving temperature between +30°C and +110°C. Sneeze guards provide hygiene barrier compliance for self-service environments.
Commercial Application
Deployed at hotel breakfast stations, carvery counters, and conference catering lines where food must remain at safe holding temperature during extended service periods. Dual infrared lamps direct heat from above while the 800W warming plate heats from below. Independent controls allow operators to adjust top and bottom heat based on product density and volume.
Used during breakfast service for scrambled eggs and bacon, lunch carveries for sliced meats and hot vegetables, or banquet lines holding sauced entrées. Two GN1/1 pans allow simultaneous holding of protein and side dish. Sneeze guards meet self-service hygiene requirements without restricting guest access or visibility.
