Description

Designed specifically for boutique hospitality venues, breakfast stations, event caterers, corporate meeting lounges, and busy kitchen pass lines, this ultra-efficient 250W hot plate combines a toughened ceramic glass deck with German EGO temperature regulation and standard 13-amp plug-and-play operation across an ultra-compact footprint.
Commercial Single Zone Glass Buffet Warmer Features & Performance
- Modern Front-of-House Glass Presentation: Water-filled bains-marie can create messy steam, condensation drips, and scaling issues on public buffet counters. The INF-TC1 delivers a clean, modern aesthetic with a smooth black ceramic glass surface. Chefs can place stainless steel 1/1 Gastronorm pans, cast iron servers, or stylish heat-resistant ceramic platters directly onto the heated deck, ensuring a clean, contemporary appearance for guest-facing services.
- Sized for 1/1 Gastronorm Standards (526mm x 324mm): Built around international catering dimensions, the glass deck comfortably accommodates a full-size 1/1 GN pan, or combinations of 1/2 and 1/3 GN trays side-by-side. It is ideal for holding breakfast sausages, bacon, scrambled eggs, roasted vegetables, curries, or carved meats warm throughout continuous dining services.
- Precision German EGO Thermostat Control (30°C to 85°C): Governed by a heavy-duty German-engineered EGO mechanical rotary thermostat dial. The smooth dial allows staff to select precise holding temperatures between 30°C and 85°C, ensuring compliance with commercial food hygiene legislation (keeping hot foods above 63°C) without burning sauces or drying out proteins.
- Concealed Underside Heating (250W): Powered by an energy-efficient 250W heating element concealed beneath the ceramic glass. Heat radiates gently and uniformly across the entire glass plate, eliminating harsh hot spots and scorched pan bases so food preserves its culinary moisture, colour, and texture.
- Ultra-Low Energy Draw (Standard 13A UK Plug): Drawing just 250 watts (approx. 1.1 amps), the INF-TC1 connects directly into any standard UK 13-amp 3-pin socket. It requires zero hardwiring or three-phase power supplies, making it exceptionally economical to run all day and an ideal option for mobile event caterers running on limited generator power.
- Stainless Steel Chassis & Rapid Sanitation: Built with a commercial food-grade stainless steel body and non-porous ceramic glass that resists grease, oil, and food staining. The flat surface wipes clean in seconds with a damp cloth and mild sanitiser at the end of the shift—no draining water wells or cleaning immersion elements required. Sturdy anti-slip rubber feet prevent shifting during active guest serving.
