Pastry Chefs and kitchen staff are constantly racing against the clock, juggling multiple tasks while striving to maintain food quality and safety standards. But what if there was a way to streamline operations, boost productivity, and enhance worker well-being, all with one piece of equipment? Enter the Varimixer ERGO Mixer – a game-changing innovation stirring up excitement in the foodservice industry.

Mixing Innovation with Ergonomics

Imagine a mixer that doesn't just blend ingredients but also blends seamlessly into your kitchen workflow. The ERGO Mixer does just that, with its ergonomic design that stands tall in stature and functionality.

Gone are the days of kitchen staff leaning over mixers, risking back strain and fatigue. The ERGO's elevated working height promotes a comfortable posture, allowing your team to work smarter, not harder. It's like having an extra pair of hands in the kitchen.

But the innovation continues beyond there. Unlike other mixers, staff can lower the ERGO's bowl past the tip of the mixing tool. This might seem insignificant, but it makes a big difference. It allows staff to remove the bowl with the tool still in place, speeding up batch rotations and keeping your kitchen's rhythm flowing smoothly.

Hygiene Meets High-Tech

The ERGO Automated Mixer shines bright in a world where hygiene is more critical than ever. Its stainless steel construction isn't just about durability; it's a testament to how easy it is to keep clean. With an IP53 rating for durability, this mixer can withstand dust and water spray, which protects the ERGO and adds to its longevity. The ERGO also has no gaps between the panels, adding another level of hygiene to food preparation. 

The ERGO also has touchscreen controls that offer manual operations for those who like to be hands-on and programmable recipe automation for consistency across batches. This helps with speed and chains that need recipes to stay consistent no matter who operates the mixer. Error logs are visible on the screen and exportable to USB, so diagnostics are easy for serviceability.

Don't just take our word for it – industry experts agree. The ERGO Automated Mixer has been honored with the prestigious 2024 Kitchen Innovations (KI) Award. Awarded by the National Restaurant Show, the KI Award celebrates back-of-house innovation in the foodservice equipment industry that improves operations and helps businesses grow. 

Efficiency That Pays Off

For restaurant operators, catering companies, commissaries, and commercial kitchens of all sizes, the ERGO Automated Mixer represents more than just an investment in equipment. It's also an investment in staff and the financial health of a business. Reducing physical strain on staff, accelerating food preparation processes, and guaranteeing consistent quality in every batch allows operators to boost productivity without compromising on the quality of food.

Moreover, the ERGO helps to reduce workplace injuries that often arise from repetitive tasks, creating a safer environment for your employees. It ensures consistency across all batches, enhancing the food's overall quality. The mixer also minimizes downtime, thanks to its easy cleaning and maintenance features, allowing your kitchen to operate smoothly. Its self-aligning bowl reduces the need for heavy lifting by automatically adjusting the bowl position, further promoting ergonomic safety. Additionally, its ability to program recipes enables quick adaptation to changing menu needs, making it a versatile tool in any kitchen.
