Expertise from one single source

In close collaboration with its reliable partners from the planning and specialist trade, the B.PRO Group guarantees safety and reliability every step of the way, from conception to realisation. The result is superior comprehensive solutions from one single source, with a coherent service concept.

The latter takes effect immediately after first contact is made. To make sure that the best possible solution can be offered, experts closely examine the initial situation. This task is performed either by the aforementioned planning partners or by B.PRO's own Projects team, whose focus is on food serving systems, food distribution and automation on the portioning conveyor.

In both cases, only those who know the spatial and technical conditions, the current processes and the challenges to be mastered right down to the very last detail can address them in the necessary depth. Finally, factors such as walking routes and other ergonomical aspects, cooling concepts and regeneration processes or the logistics to be connected also play a decisive role. The team of experts always keeps an eye on the budget.

The flexibility of B.PRO products plays into the hands of planners during concept development. Colour can be adapted to fit the customer’s corporate design, and an extensive range of customised special solutions are also possible. In addition, the various components are coordinated to ensure that they complement each other during operation.

When the plans finally become reality, customers benefit from the enormous expertise of the B.PRO team and its partners. Installation and commissioning are optimally aligned and completed in the shortest possible time – even overnight during running operation if necessary. An additional part of the service concept involves third-party appliances from refrigerators to snack vending machines, which are included in planning right from the start and supplied via the relevant specialist retail partner.

"We want to offer our customers a reliable all-round service," says Ralf Scherf, system consultant for food serving systems, describing the B.PRO Catering Solutions mission. This is also reflected in the system solutions for a wide range of requirements. Here are some examples:

Whether serving counter or self-service islands, the BASIC LINE modules can be flexibly combined and individually configured. The result is an appealing culinary experience. The dishes are presented attractively and efficient processes guarantee minimum waiting times. On request, front cooking stations can be seamlessly integrated into the serving to further enhance the offering.

Modular automation solutions really come into their own when it comes to food portioning on conveyors. Tray dispensers allow continuous tray placement on the conveyor belt without interruption, while integrated printers create patient cards directly on the conveyor and control the subsequent steps using a QR code. Automated systems also ensure the precise placement of china, cutlery and packaged food on the trays. The systems from B.PRO reduce the workload and improve food safety.

With JUNIOR-SERVE , B.PRO offers an all-in-one serving system: From food transport, preparation and regeneration to serving and clearing, it covers the entire process for food logistics in educational establishments. The equipment, such as the reduced-height serving units, is perfectly adapted to the young target group in daycare centres and schools.

A key element of commercial catering is the safe and efficient transport of food. The B.PROTHERM K and E transport trolleys and containers certainly prove their worth, both at large events and in more intimate settings. They are also practical helpers in canteens, clinics and daycare centres.

The B.PROTHERM E stainless-steel food transport containers also offer the option of digitally monitoring temperature data, thus ensuring compliance with the highest hygiene standards. Integrated sensors permanently record relevant data, which can be conveniently analysed using the QMSpot quality management software. This saves time, reduces sources of error and significantly reduces administrative work. The B.PROTHERM K plastic food transport containers offer even more usage options.

Managers of retail locations such as petrol stations who are looking for efficient and modern catering concepts will find an exciting plug-and-play solution in FRESH & GO. The concept allows food to be prepared, finished and presented in just 9 square metres. Its fixed workflow, ease of use and low operating costs means that it is guaranteed to impress.

Where for others, the order ends with the delivery of individual products, for the B.PRO Group, this is just the beginning. "Meeting the complex challenges of food serving and food distribution with sophisticated system solutions" is how Managing Director Dr Ralf Klöpfer describes the company's vision.
