The goal: To become even more productive and more flexible. Without losing sight of the quality.

A big promise. At first glance this seems to be a paradox, however it makes sense when using two intelligent cooking systems. With two intelligent cooking systems that cover over 95% of all conventional cooking applications. Which are intelligent. Which have the same simple operating system. Which are quickly understood. Which have been developed for large quantities. Which can produce enormous variety. Which reliably deliver the same result time and time again. Which meet the hygiene requirements.

What do you get out of it? More productivity, more flexibility, more reliability.

Buffet, menu, free flow staff catering is varied and demanding. A snack, a salad or pizza in between. To create customer experiences. A sophisticated high-en mise en place is all the more important. With cooking systems that are easy to operate with their identical operating system, that take on routine tasks, that produce the same quality time and time again, that work intelligently. Like the iVario Pro for pasta, casseroles or pudding for example. Without sticking, without over boiling, with excellent precision. Or the iCombi Pro. For gratins, chicken and vegetables. If you use ConnectedCooking, you can even operate your cooking systems when out and about.

The result: Great productivity, great results. No matter who’s using the cooking systems.
Modern production: Great quantities, great quality. Simple to produce. Each and every time.

Colourful, healthy, delicious is how business & industry catering must be. Every day. For every special request. With 95%* less fat, up to 40%* fewer calories, less food waste, less over-production and lower overheads. Plus more vitamins, colour, minerals and flavour. This is why the iCombi Pro cooks gently with 100% fresh steam. This is why iCombi Pro and iVario Pro have so much power that none of the meat juices run and the minerals are preserved. Also this is why the iVario Pro is so fast that it helps to retain the vitamins.

* Compared to conventional cooking technology.

This is how you benefit: With the iCombi Pro, you can create more efficiency and cost transparency without having to compromise on quality.

In business & industry catering, if you don't stay ahead of the game today, you won’t have any guests left tomorrow. It is becoming more and more important to regularly revise concepts, generate input and implement new ideas. This applies to the ambience in the company canteen, as well as how the food is served. This is precisely where RATIONAL is there for you. With know-how. With the necessary expertise. With many new ideas. Also with cooking systems that adapt to changes, are familiar with international recipes and cover 90 % of all conventional cooking applications. It is difficult to imagine a trend that the two cooking systems cannot master.

Stay flexible. Implement new ideas and concepts. With two cooking systems that can do almost everything.

A variety of food in large quantities is required. It must be precise, delicious and healthy. Without producing unnecessary waste. Such as when Finishing in containers. The dishes are prepared, for example in the Cook & Chill process, then vacuum-packed or stored in a container in the cold store. This means you can purchase and produce in reserve. Then you can bring the foods that you need to serving temperature in the iCombi Pro when you need them. To ensure that you can serve crunchy, fresh vegetables full of vitamins, for example. Completely simple, completely safe, completely flexible. Because you can, of course, also prepare different products at the same time. Without any loss of quality. Quick and simple. The same applies to restocking.

This is how you benefit: Food always at the right temperature for service. Crunchy, fresh. Full of vitamins and colour. With low fat. Without overproduction.

Sustainability protects resources and saves money: Energy-efficient production and logistics, new standards in energy-saving and recycling of old units are a given at RATIONAL. Equally, sustainability is just as much of a given with the iCombi Pro and iVario Pro in your kitchen: Compared to conventional kitchen appliances, you save energy. You have a lower cost of goods. Less over-production. And also cook more healthily.

For the sake of the environment. You can cook healthily whilst maintaining an environmental balance.

Up to 70 % lower energy costs*

Short preheating times eliminate the need for standby mode. Rolling loads with the iProductionManager in the iCombi Pro, zoned heating of the pan with iZoneControl in the iVario Pro also save energy.

Less working time*

It eliminates the need for routine tasks such as turning, checking and readjustment. Ultrafast cleaning in the iCombi Pro and super easy cleaning in the iVario Pro save time. Makes 1-2 hours of extra free time per day.

30 % less space requirement*

Together, the iCombi Pro and iVario Pro replace approx. 90% of conventional cooking equipment. So out with the tilting pan, boiling pan and deep-fat fryer – and in with freedom of movement. Or additional shop space.

Up to 25 % less consumption of raw materials*

The iCombi Pro sensitively adjusts its cooking processes which reduces weight and cutting loss. Nothing burns in the iVario Pro, and nothing boils over. This results in almost no loss at all. Together, this makes up to 20 % less consumption of raw materials.

It pays off. The bottom line is the extremely quick amortisation, but it's also fun to work with.
Play it safe. The iCombi Pro and the iVario Pro meet international standards in terms of safety and hygiene. Everything is documented. To keep your mind at ease.
