Glasswashers are extremely popular pieces of equipment in the catering trade, and for good reason - they not only free up staff for other duties, but ensure glasses are cleaned to a high standard, and they operate efficiently and quickly. This article discusses some of the benefits of professional glasswashers and explains why every serious bar, restaurant, pub or cafe should really invest in one.

Allow Your Staff to Focus on Other Tasks

Washing glasses by hand is a time-consuming and often tedious job. Especially in a busy bar or pub, you'll find the stream of glasses needing washing is constant, meaning you'll need staff on-hand to wash glasses more or less permanently at busy times. Imagine if you could free up those staff to concentrate on other things - how much more quickly could you serve customers, for example? Or how much cleaner and tidier would they be able to keep your bar area? Alternatively, you might find you don't need to employ as many staff, saving you money in the long run.

More Hygienic

As commercial washers are designed to be efficient and reliable, you can be sure every glass will be thoroughly washed. It's all too easy for busy staff to be less than thorough when they're under pressure to get glasses back out to the bar as quickly as possible, but a glasswasher can help you be confident that all of your glassware is completely clean and hygienic when it's returned to service.

Short Washing Cycles

Commercial washers are designed to work quickly and efficiently. If you are used to a slow and awkward dishwasher at home that seems to spend hours on a single load, leaving you without clean crockery when you need it, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the speed of a commercial washer. These washers can cope with large loads in a matter of minutes, without compromising on the quality of the wash. As they operate so quickly and efficiently, sparkling clean glasses will be back in service before you know it, again meaning staff can get on with the all important job of serving customers rather than waiting for clean glasses.

Durable, Efficient and Tough

Quality glasswashers are durable and able to cope with the demands of a busy catering business. They can handle a high volume of glassware, delivering excellent results every time. They are also easy to use, meaning you don't need to waste time training staff to operate them. You'll also find they are energy efficient and probably cost less to run than you might imagine. Huge developments in energy efficiency have taken place in recent years, and glasswashers are no longer the energy guzzlers many people used to assume they were.

Adding a glasswasher to your bar, restaurant or other catering business could not only increase the efficiency of your operation, it could also help save you money in the long-run when compared with other methods of cleaning glasses.
