AluChef® product line - innovative roasters and cocottes specially developed for professional use on the buffet. With the charm of traditional French cast iron dishes, but only a fraction of their weight, AluChef® is the ideal choice for your buffet.

Perfect presentation at a minimal weight Thanks to modern die-cast aluminum, AluChef® weighs only about a third of the weight of conventional cast-iron cocottes. This makes handling easier for service staff and reduces damage caused by the heavy cast iron.

High performance for the catering industry The AluChef® line offers an extremely durable, PFOA-free non-stick coating that ensures smooth serving and easy cleaning. AluChef® is induction, oven and dishwasher safe, making it ideal for intensive use in the catering industry.

Variety for your buffet area Available in a wide range of colors such as matt black, blue, anthracite, green and red, AluChef® opens up new possibilities for buffet design. You can choose from various shapes and sizes to meet your individual requirements.

The new packaging law will bring new obligations for the catering and retail sectors. Final distributors such as restaurants, bistros, cafés and snack bars will then have to offer a reusable alternative for the packaging of to-go food.

CONTACTO offers caterers and operators of reusable systems not only the ECO-TAKEOUTS series but also the WE*TURN reusable tableware. Both series include boxes and containers specially designed for closed-loop systems for use in take-away and food distribution systems.

Chips / French Fries Dish WE*TURN® re-usable system, polypropylene, microwave and dishwasher proof, for serving French fries in style

The chip trays from the CONTACTO WE*TURN® reusable tableware range are made from food-grade polypropylene in Europe. Many Christmas markets and folk festivals are already trying to avoid disposable packaging. WE*TURN® trays are also a good choice for mushrooms, finger food and other items. The white version has the look of classic cardboard bowls in porcelain. In the cardboard-coloured brown version, they are also less susceptible to discolouration. When using staining food in a hot, greasy state, the bowl may take on the colour of the food (for example with curries). In these special cases, we particularly advise against using them in the microwave.

Milk substitutes are becoming increasingly popular and have become an indispensable part of buffets

At breakfast buffets, more and more guests are now asking for almond or oat milk for their morning cereal, or other alternatives to add to their tea or coffee, instead of cow's milk. While the expectation of a varied breakfast offering is increasing, the space on the buffet table remains the same. Often, hotel guests have to ask for an extended choice of milk options and the service team has to bring them specially from the kitchen.

The RAISER INOX 'Vario Station' on a 15 x 15 cm RAISER comprises a small 1 litre milk can with tap as an attractive solution for presenting as many milk substitutes as possible in a clean and hygienic manner in a small space. The compact milk cans are made of 18/10 stainless steel, and the non-drip tap enables drip-free dispensing. With an ice pack hidden in the base, milk, cream and other liquids stay chilled. The raisers in different heights can be combined with each other in many ways. For cereal bowls and coffee cups, the 'Vario Station Duo' version or the medium height of the 'Vario Station Uno' would be suitable. When using coffee mugs, the 'Vario Station Uno' with the taller raisers is recommended. The new FRILICH milk station raisers can also be equipped with porcelain cups to hold tea or coffee spoons, stirrers or sugar next to the hot water dispenser or coffee machine.
