This offer ends in:
This electric griddle provides a 728×400mm smooth cooking surface heated to 300°C by dual 2.2kW elements. The 10mm mild steel plate holds temperature across simultaneous breakfast, burger, and flat-top preparations. Operations use it as a primary hot surface in burger restaurants, breakfast cafés, hotel kitchens, and mobile catering units.
Commercial Application
The unit functions as a continuous cooking surface for pancakes, bacon, burgers, eggs, and grilled sandwiches during peak service. Dual heating zones allow operators to cook different products at different temperatures without cross-contamination. The oil collector channels grease away from the cooking surface into a removable stainless steel tray.
During breakfast service, one operator can prepare eggs, bacon, and hash browns simultaneously across the 728mm width. The 10mm plate thickness maintains stable surface temperature when cold product is placed on the griddle. Recovery time between batches remains short due to the 4.4kW total output.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the cooking surface stainless steel or mild steel?
A: The cooking plate is 10mm polished mild steel. Mild steel retains heat better than stainless steel and provides more consistent surface temperature across the griddle. The body, splash guard, and grease collector are stainless steel.
Q: How does the grease channel work?
A: A sloped surface directs grease and oil toward the front edge. The removable stainless steel collector tray sits under the front lip and catches runoff. The tray has a handle for emptying and cleaning between service periods.
Q: Can this griddle be installed in a food truck?
A: Yes. The 730×500mm footprint fits standard mobile catering prep tables. Single-phase 230V supply is compatible with most food truck electrical systems. Anti-slip feet and low centre of gravity provide stability during transport.
Q: How do I control different temperature zones?
A: The unit has dual 2.2kW heating elements beneath the plate. Adjust the thermostat knob to set overall surface temperature. Heat distribution creates natural zones — hotter near the centre, slightly cooler at the edges — allowing simultaneous cooking at different intensities.
Q: What maintenance does the cooking surface require?
A: Scrape the plate with a metal spatula while still warm after each service. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to prevent rust when the griddle is not in use for extended periods. Do not use water directly on a hot plate.
