There are four tables that can be used and even joined together to offer a vast array of possibilities. From large cooking lines to satellite live stations. ELEMENTS is designed to be inserted lengthwise or crosswise as depicted in the ELEMENTS logo. A compact and mobile exhaust canopy was developed call AIRMOBIL was developed to ensure live cooking stations can be anywhere located indoors as well as outdoors.

Serving still & sparkling wine by the glass can be very hit & miss in both quality and wastage. Duravin+ preserves still & sparkling wines, stopping oxidisation while maintaining perlage in sparkling wine and champagne. This allows venues to have a larger range by the glass and ensuring your guests get a glass in perfect condition for a minimum of two weeks, with zero wastage
Watch the Duravin+ video for features, benefits & range information
A particular issue is sparkling wine and champagne. Being able to serve a consistent amount of bubbles (perlage) is almost impossible.
One wine bar manager said
I throw out bottle of sparkling wine every day. Sometimes they’re three quarters full!
With Duravin+ you can guarantee the quality of your sparkling and champagne by the glass, ensuring you get 100% yield from every bottle
Let’s face it, Buffets are heading into unchartered territory. But let’s also face it, buffets will need to find a way! Too many industry sectors depend on buffets….or a version of them! Facilities like convention centres / caterers / hotel / event spaces / executive lounges and the list goes on.
Eco Serve is a cost effective and versatile solution offering concepts that assist moving forward. Whether it is individual portions ensuring no multilple touch-points, satellite food stations ensuring distancing….or the buffet coming to you. Eco Serve is flexible thanks to the innovative Eco Burner. Eco serve is a waterless alternative to chafing dishes. Carrying hot water creates burns risk and Eco Burner is a safe, eco-friendly and cost effective food warming device.
The team at Eco Burner, in collaboration with industry input has come up with a couple of interesting concepts that you might find interesting and worthwhile pursuing.
The beauty of Eco Serve is the benefit of flexibility. No power cables, no hot water & Eco Burner that can run for up to 7 hours without refilling. Keeping guests separated and serving food in unlimited locations (such as outside or on the beach) is done with ease with Eco Serve
Eco Serve Trolley
Does the buffet come to you?
Similar to the Yum Cha concept, with effective heating & cooling technology food can be delivered to the table. Eco Serve can easily be adapted to work in custom trolleys.
Obviously these are all concepts that under investigation, but we have to explore. Buffets will most likely return to some semblance of normal. But until then, will buffets be a fusion of the buffet we knew pre-pandemic with mixed with other food service styles from various cultures such as Yum Cha and Bento?
Eco Serve is the most effective, flexible and cost effective product on the market. It is a budget conscious solution with the versatility to adapt to each stage or easing or change. Please feel free to contact us or join us for a personal video chat if you would like to discuss further.

Congratulations to Ahmad Ghaddar and the team at @pullmanbrisbane for making substantial sustainability savings since switching to @ecoburner last year.
Ahmad and the Pullman Brisbane team have saved 2.9 tons of carbon emissions & 520kg of waste going into landfill.
We are please to announce that Eco Serve has developed and launched the latest product in the range GN1/1. A gastronorm sized version of the already successful round Eco serve.
Why EcoServe GN1/1
GN1/1 has the same benefits as EcoServe round.
No need to dangerously carry hot water to the buffet or waste valuable time and fuel costs by waiting for water to heat up. This saves up to 5 litres per unit compared to a regular chafing dish
Food presentation is much better with the ability to use a variety of gastronorm dishes as well as other pots, such as the AluChef range. Food quality is also exceptional, as it stays in exactly the same condition in started as for hours.
Easier to to transfer food as the vessels sit safely on top of EcoServe. Changing pans in a regular chafing dish can be cumbersome and unsafe with hot water dripping everywhere.
EcoServe is extremely environmentally friendly as it is powered by Eco Burner. Eco Burner is a refillable, stainless steel burner that is adjustable in temperature and wind resistant. It is filled by an exact mix of butane and propane to ensure a clean burning vessel and an extremely safe environment. Gel and wicks, used in chafing dishes are dangerous and extremely bad for the environment, with the toxic, tainted remains going into landfill. Empty Eco Burner fuel cans are full recyclable.

There are added benefits to using EcoServe GN1/1. Gastronorm EcoServe comes with folding legs which provides an excellent storage solution. You can store three units in place of one chafing where the lid is fully folded under or five EcoServe GN1/1 where the lid of the chafing dish is fully up. Contact us for GN1/1 storage solutions such as a purpose built flight case or service trolley insert.
