Why A Dual Cavity Blast Chiller and Shock Freezer?

Foodservice kitchens are busy places with multiple people working in different areas to get meals out to customers quickly and correctly. Having to repeat steps or not being able to prep in advance is a time waste and can slow down productivity. Kitchens that bring food down quickly out of the danger zone using automation and safely store food for long periods of time are saving time, eliminating labor, and helping increase profits. Imagine being able to do that with one machine. 

That's why the TK2C-2 Dual Cavity Blast Chiller and Shock Freezer was created. The only dual blast chiller and shock freezer on the market, the TK2C-2 gives commercial kitchens versatility in how they produce meals. Able to simultaneously chill and freeze food products in one unit, it allows bakeries to set frostings and freeze baked goods in advance of events and restaurants to prep food days in advance of holidays. Or how about creating menu options using products that were in season several months prior?
