Safety in Commercial Kitchen

Blades, fire, oil and water spills and plenty of other things that we deem dangerous are present in kitchens. When it comes to commercial kitchens, the risk is even bigger as more heavy duty and professional equipment and tools are used. By professional, we mean sharper blades and high power electronics and numerous stoves operating at extremely high temperatures.
Due to all these factors, commercial kitchen safety has become extremely crucial. If proper safety standards are not followed, it can lead to disastrous accidents that can ultimately cost lives as well. Commercial kitchen safety is not just limited to installment of fire alarms and extinguishers everywhere. There may be plenty of other things that can cause damage under inappropriate circumstances.
To give you a basic idea of a safe and secure commercial kitchen, here are five easy tips to help you get started.
  • Plan Your Kitchen Space Properly – A congested commercial kitchen has more space for accidents. Make sure each of the stations has enough to facilitate effective and efficient movement of the staff. Lack of space increases the chances of accidental spills, cuts and burns caused by disturbance created by traffic in the area.
  • Store Your Utensils and Blades Properly – Commercial kitchen chefs are well trained in the usage of sharp blades and knives. Still, blades are often the main culprit behind commercial kitchen accidents. This is largely due to improper storage methods. It is best to store knives in wooden blocks made for the purpose. Using drawers for knife storage is equally dangerous.
  • Ensure Natural Ventilation and Proper Exhaust – Exhaust system is necessary to ensure a fire safe commercial kitchen. However, natural ventilation is also equally important. You can use windows, vents and skylights for this purpose. While it maintains proper airflow and keeps the kitchen air fresher, natural ventilation also increases the efficiency of fire suppression system during emergencies.
  • Use Proper Signage Wherever Required – Your staff must be aware of all the emergency exits, stairs and hallways in the kitchen and building. Yet, even if they know all the emergency exits by heart, it is important to place emergency signage wherever necessary. This will help them find their way even in extreme state of panic and confusion.
  • Impose Safer Uniform and Apparel – Always ensure the safety of your commercial kitchen staff by making uniforms mandatory. The uniform must be made of the standard fire retardant cotton fabric. Also, ensure the use of proper apparel including an apron, hat and mitts during handling of hot utensils and heating equipment.

Commercial Deep Fryer Cleaning Tips 
General cleaning and maintenance are the best way to assure years of trouble-free service from your commercial fryer. Reference your owner’s manual for more product-specific cleaning tips, but read on for a few general cleaning procedures that are synonymous across all brands.
  • Clean the element whenever the oil is filtered or changed. Any time the oil is drained or filtered from the vat, heating ribbons or elements that are submerged in the oil should be brushed clean in order to maintain proper heat transfer. Also, scrub food crumbs and particles off of the fry-pot walls.
  • Wipe down the exterior at the end of the day. At the end of the day, be sure to wipe off the exterior of the commercial deep fryer, especially around the rim of fry vat. This is mostly a cosmetic and worker safety consideration as the oil could drizzle to the floor and cause a slip-and-fall hazard.
  • Clean the fry baskets at the end of the day. Be sure to remove the fry baskets from the vats at the end of the day and run them through the dish machine. Wait until the baskets are dry before placing them back over the oil because water will cause the hot oil to splatter.

ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Sustained Excellence 2013The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded Manitowoc Foodservice a 2012 ENERGY STAR Sustained Excellence Award in recognition of its continued leadership in protecting our environment through energy efficiency. Manitowoc Foodservice's accomplishments will be recognized at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. on March 15, 2012, which marks the 20th anniversary of ENERGY STAR.
Manitowoc Foodservice, an ENERGY STAR partner since 2001, will be honored for its long-term commitment to energy efficiency. Manitowoc Foodservice has 556 products in our ENERGY STAR portfolio covering six categories. Two brands that led our sales of ENERGY STAR equipment for 2012 were Frymaster with 33% of their product sales attributed to an ENERGY STAR model and Manitowoc Ice with 32% of sales - meaning one in every three Frymaster fryer or Manitowoc Ice machine was an ENERGY STAR model.
Across the U.S., top companies and organizations are leading the way toward a more energy-efficient future through their participation in ENERGY STAR. Over the last 20 years, with help from ENERGY STAR, American families and businesses have saved more than $230 billion on utility bills and prevented more than 1.8 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions.
"Manitowoc Foodservice is committed to increasing energy efficiency in our foodservice equipment through our partnership with ENERGY STAR, which helps protect the environment and reduce greenhouse gas emissions," said Dean Landeche, Senior Vice President, Solutions and Services.
"EPA is recognizing Manitowoc Foodservice for earning EPA's highest ENERGY STAR award - the 2013 Partner of the Year - Sustained Excellence Award," said Bob Perciasepe, Acting Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. "Manitowoc Foodservice leads the field with their commitment to energy efficiency and demonstrates how all Americans can save energy, save money, and create a healthier environment."
The 2013 Partner of the Year - Sustained Excellence Awards are given to a select group of organizations that have exhibited outstanding leadership year after year. These winners have reduced greenhouse gas emissions by setting and achieving aggressive goals, and employing innovative energy efficiency approaches. These awards recognize ongoing leadership across the ENERGY STAR program, including energy-efficient products, services, new homes, and buildings in the commercial, industrial, and public sectors. Award winners are selected from the nearly 20,000 organizations that participate in the ENERGY STAR program.
