*Certain Crocs™ Work shoes have been independently tested at Intertek lab following the ASTM F1677 testing standards, using the Mark II machine. When tested on quarry tile commonly found in restaurants, Crocs Lock™ tread was found to be slip resistant under certain wet, dry, soapy, oily and greasy conditions. The numbers above, selected by Crocs, Inc. engineering, are a representation of average & median scores from a controlled sample of tests conducted at Intertek labs. No shoe is 100% slip resistant and test results may vary under different conditions.

Just released: Afinox buffet counters with style

Written by Alice Jane Roberts



We all know how the appearance of our food can make it seem more or less appetizing- throw a load of veg and slices of meat all over a dull, chipped plate and you wouldn’t have very happy (but probably, less hungry) customers. Dishes are presented well – we use quality crockery – knives and forks that make the holder of them say “ooh, I like these”… it’s all important stuff, in ensuring the satisfied psychology of eaters.  But why stop there?

With the booming business of serve yourself all-you-can-eat buffets, the re-appearance of carveries and the old favourite of pick-your-own canteen style serveries, the Italian based company Afinox have devised a range of units to serve the food industry impressively: whilst ensuring that important attractive appearance.

Afinox’s new range of counters, called Tradition, Essence and Soul, are fully-integrated, complete service units that fit simply and conveniently into any catering environment, whether traditional or modern. The Soul, Essence and Tradition ranges have been developed with the aim of offering “the most convenient choice in the self service and buffet service market”.

So, no more having to buy separate units and paying someone else to come in and design and build the housing. These units are complete, and on castors – so you can move your buffet area around as much as you want. The edges are straight, not curved – meaning they can easily stand side by side, and appear as if they were built that way.

Plus, they look pretty smart.

There are various heated, refrigerated and ambient units, such as heated/refrigerated air-blown, bainmarie or static wells, heated/refrigerated glass hoods – that come in the form of ‘serve over’, buffet style, winged or walled.  Of course, you may still want to design your own housing, and Afinox have catered for that too with the Soul drop-in range.

Alternatively, Chef Logic offer a project management service and will custom design and build your counters for you, for use with the Soul drop-in counters.
ChefLogic’s website is still in the making: and we’re very excited about it’s up-and-coming launch. In the mean time, please call us for more information and/or to order on 0845 372 3401, or order from us on CaterQuotes -www.caterquotes.co.uk.
