Continental Refrigerator Gives Operators Flexible Solutions

Restaurants facing the challenges of the COVID virus are often needing product flexibility within their foodservice operation.

Continental Refrigerator has always been about product flexibility. Their refrigeration equipment is built with flexible components and options that can easily be changed in the field. Continental is working hard to engineer their units for safer, cleaner kitchen environments. They have added new options that allow the surfaces of refrigeration equipment to be more sanitary.

One of the many sanitation solutions Continental offers is the SANIGUARD antimicrobial coated handles. SANIGUARD antimicrobial product protection utilizes a patented, inorganic silver-ion technology to inhibit the growth of non-public health bacteria, odor-causing molds and mildews, staining, and product deterioration. This is a great solution to keep handles cleaner and fresher between routine cleanings.

Continental Refrigerator also offers the option of foot treadles for upright refrigeration units. Foot treadles are being attached to the bottom of upright refrigeration units to allow the foodservice operators to use their foot, rather than their hands, to open the door. This keeps dirty hands off of handles and reduces the risk of spread from high-touch surfaces.
