Eating must be fun, eating must be healthy.

Preschools and schools are reevaluating things. Pasta, chips and pizza are increasingly considered outdated choices, as they have too much fat, too much sugar and are too unhealthy. It's all about new ideas - the menu now includes vegetables, wholegrain products and lean meat. This is because healthy nutrition is the basis for healthy development. At the same time the menu choices have to be delicious. in spite of having a low budget, experiencing staff shortages and a minimal working space. Intelligent technology will support this by taking on work, thinking with you and producing the desired result time and time again.

Smart cooking: Intelligent cooking systems will help you to serve healthy and delicious food. With no additional work, no added costs and no fuss.

A cooking system that thinks with you, learns from you, forgets nothing, adjusts and adapts. Which can prepare 90 % of all foods. Which saves space and investment costs. Because it can bake, fry, grill and steam. Because thanks to its intelligence assistance functions, it responds to all changing requirements dynamically. More meals than usual? Frozen food? Has the cooking cabinet door been open too long? Here too, the iCombi Pro never loses sight of the desired result and adjusts the settings independently.

Essentially, the iCombi Pro has only one task: Reliably delivering consistently good results. It is therefore equipped with a whole lot of intelligence and impresses with productivity, simplicity and quality. For example, it recognises whether it is going to cook one or 200 chicken escalopes and regulates everything automatically. Or it supports you with time or energy-optimised production plans. For the most optimal buffet service for example.

Everything for the one goal: So you can keep on impressing your small customers with outstanding ideas.

Fresh, convenience, frozen. Meat, fish, poultry, side dishes. The iCombi Pro can do it all. Perfection in no time at all. Finally, the cooking system recognises the condition and size of the food and adjusts the cooking process accordingly. So that the broccoli stays green, the pasta is cooked al dente, the turkey steak gets delicious grill stripes. Everything is always consistently high quality. With the iProductionManager, you can even prepare different foods at the same time. It's that simple.

Peace of mind: You can concentrate on child-friendly recipes, the iCombi Pro will produce meals that are tasty with flawless hygiene.

Colourful, healthy and delicious is how school lunches should be served. Every day. For every age group. 95 %* less fat, up to 40 %* fewer calories, less food waste, less over-production, less running costs. Plus more vitamins, colour, minerals and flavour. Because the iCombi Pro has intelligent systems, which perfectly regulate the temperature and steam, for food that is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Which adjust the cooking paths to changed conditions and to ensure an optimal desired result. Also allowing for flexibility in production for the exact quantities.
