AN ORGANISED AND EFFICIENT KITCHEN

What is the best way to organise kitchen cleaning equipment and which tools are best suited for this environment?

Our experts answer.

Is it important that all equipment are easily accessible to staff in order to prevent time being wasted unnecessarily?

Operators should have easy access to the equipment so as not to extend the cleaning time unnecessarily, thereby increasing its cost.

Promoting orderly and efficient storage in which every tool is in its place is the key to quick access to it. Hanging them after the work has been completed allows them to be better organised by increasing their visibility and thus facilitating immediate control. Not only that: keeping them hung ensures complete drying after cleaning, prevents deformation that would compromise the equipment by requiring replacement, and minimises bacterial growth.

How difficult is it to equip a kitchen to ensure a good “flow”? What are the problems involved?

There is no doubt that the lack of space makes it more difficult to find a place for the cleaning tools, but this is a problem that can be easily solved with the right tools. In this respect, Filmop offers a highly functional solution that allows each tool to have its own place. The result is a tidy and easily accessible workstation. The solution offered is specifically designed to efficiently organise even small spaces, thus overcoming any limitations.

What solutions does Filmop offer to improve “flow” around the commercial kitchen? How do these speed up operations?

Thanks to Filmop's App tool-hanging system, every tool will always be in its place: the operator can conveniently hang up the equipment when the operation is complete, organising it in the best possible way. Available in two sizes to meet different needs and equipped with hooks and holders for 20 to 30 mm diameter handles, it is an indispensable tool for hanging and arranging tools efficiently. The 30 and 50 cm bars can be freely combined with each other and with hooks and handle holders to create large, well-equipped panels. Hooks and handle holders are also available in a version designed for wall mounting, which is particularly suitable for creating extremely compact workstations.

Kitchens require equipment to meet specific needs, what solutions does Filmop offer for cleaning surfaces and floors?

Surfaces most frequently found in kitchens are undoubtedly steel surfaces, for which Filmop offers Power-T, the ultra-microfibre non-woven wiping cloth that easily removes the most stubborn greasy dirt. Not just steel: Power-T is highly versatile and can be used dry and wet on any surface, always ensuring high performance.

For floor washing we recommend Twice, the 30 litre wringer bucket with two sections to separate the cleaning solution from the rinse water and a double drain plug to empty each section without having to lift the bucket. Twice can be combined with Globo, the touch-free washing system that facilitates cleaning while ensuring a high level of hygiene. Among the cloths in the range, we recommend the ultra-microfibre and polypropylene Puli-Brush cloth for cleaning non-slip floors, often found in commercial kitchens. The special composition allows even the most stubborn dirt to be removed quickly, releasing it only when the textile is washed.

Finally, Filmop has realised an optimal solution in all situations where urgent cleaning is required: the 500 ml Drop dosing handle allows you to dose the cleaning solution according to the surface and degree of dirt. Lightweight and handy, it is also available in the ergonomic ErgoDrop version with a double twist grip to ensure maximum results with minimum effort.
