#@@# Capacity Control#@#
Operators receive precise 5 Oz. portions with every use, improving consistency and cost control across high-volume lines. Measured portions reduce waste and simplify inventory tracking while supporting standardized recipes in institutional kitchens.
#@@# Durable Construction#@#
Manufacturers build the bowl and handle from 11-gauge 18/8 stainless steel to resist denting and corrosion under frequent use. Chefs benefit from a rigid, single-piece form that minimizes joints where food soils accumulate, lowering maintenance labor.
#@@# Heat Resistant Handle#@#
Staff handle hot products safely with a Kool-Touch insulated grip that reduces thermal transfer from the bowl to the hand. Managers reduce burn incidents and maintain service speed because cooks retain secure control when ladling hot soups or sauces.
#@@# Secure Hooked End#@#
Teams hang the tool on steam table rims and pan edges using the grooved hooked end to keep work surfaces organized. Line cooks access the ladle quickly while preventing cross-contamination with a designated resting point.
#@@# Sanitation Ready#@#
Kitchens meet demanding sanitation protocols because the one-piece construction eliminates weld seams and crevices where bacteria can hide. Supervisors streamline cleaning routines and support HACCP procedures with a design that cleans quickly and dries reliably.
#@@# Certified Compliance#@#
Specifiers will note that the unit carries NSF Certified approval for commercial use, aligning equipment selection with regulatory expectations.
