The SSL025 is a 70ml stainless steel ladle manufactured by Zodex for portioning liquids in commercial kitchens. It transfers soups, sauces, and broths from holding pots to service bowls or plating stations. Kitchen staff use it during high-volume service periods where portion control reduces ingredient wastage.
Commercial Application
Ladles of this capacity serve as standard portioning tools in restaurant and hotel kitchens. The 70ml volume matches typical starter soup servings or sauce applications. Staff rely on consistent bowl size to maintain cost control and recipe adherence during service rushes.
During plating or buffet service, cooks transfer measured quantities without returning to scales. The hooked handle permits hanging storage on pot rails or shelf edges for immediate access. Long handle length keeps hands clear of steam and heat when working over stock pots or bains-marie.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What stainless steel grade is used in the SSL025 ladle?
A: Most commercial ladles use 18/0 (430-grade) or 18/8 (304-grade) stainless steel. Zodex typically specifies food-grade steel meeting CE hygiene standards. Contact us to confirm exact grade for this model.
Q: Can this ladle withstand commercial dishwasher temperatures?
A: Stainless steel construction tolerates high-temperature commercial dishwasher cycles. The handle and bowl retain structural integrity through repeated washing at 80–90°C.
Q: What is the total length of the ladle including handle?
A: Handle length typically ranges from 250–300mm on 70ml capacity ladles. Exact dimensions available on request from TurcoBazaar technical support.
Q: Does the hooked handle fit standard pot rail diameters?
A: Hook design suits most 12–20mm diameter pot rails and shelf edges found in commercial kitchens. The hook prevents ladle from sliding into pots during storage.
Q: Is volume certification included for portion control compliance?
A: CE certification covers hygiene standards but not volume calibration. Operators requiring certified portion volumes should verify capacity through in-house testing or contact manufacturer.
