The automatic hood is a “Massive positive difference for anyone who has the tough job of kitchen/catering assistant. Game changer 100%,” posted Seema Jehlwal, Senior Manager, Independent Living Centres and Chair of the Southeast Region for the NACC.

The new Meiko hood dishwasher was specified for a care home by Simon Parry, Client Solution Specialist for Arolite: ‘Experts in food service equipment for organisations seeking to be more sustainable.’

Simon Parry commented, “Sometimes it’s small changes that make the biggest difference.

“Arolite recently installed a Meiko HXL double basket dishwasher with an automatic hood lift, and I have to admit – I was genuinely impressed the first time I saw it in operation...it quickly becomes clear how much strain that removes from the job.

“The best feedback came from the person who matters most, the operator. Their verdict: ‘It’s a joy to work with.’
