Banqueting Trolleys

The Chillogen Banquet Trolley takes the hassle out of preparing for banquets and functions

Make the day go smoothly

The Versigen Chillogen Banquet Trolley is the efficient, safe and stress-free solution to the problems of catering for banquets or special functions, big or small. This versatile unit is available in two models, the '60' and the '90', making it possible for a single unit to cater for events with up to 60 or 90 covers using 10'' plates from a modest kitchen and provide food that tastes like it's been freshly cooked on the day.

It takes all the hassle out of the planning and organisation. There will be no more last minute rush, no more delays and no worries about irate guests. Even if the guests are late the food will still be at the correct serving temperature.

Advance preparation, freshly-cooked feel

The look and taste of regenerated food from the Chillogen Banquet Trolley has passed the test of discerning chefs in premium hotels and banqueting venues.

The secret is to carry out preparation well in advance during quieter periods when the pressure is off, you're bound to get a better quality meal. Preparation can be carried out days in advance.

After that, everything is automated, thanks to our innovative Chillogen technology. Just pre-chill the trolley, cook, prepare and plate the food. Then immediately place the plates, with covers, into the Chillogen Banquet Trolley. The trolley chills the food and holds at a constant temperature of +2ºC to +4ºC for the required storage period. At the preset time, the refrigerator converts to an oven and regenerates the chilled food to the recommended temperature of 80/85ºC in around an hour.

Regeneration in under an hour

Versigen’s Turbo Heat Generator and Multi-FanTechnology make the Chillogen Banquet Trolley one of the fastest regeneration units on the market. This technology ensures even temperatures throughout the compartment. The oven generates the minimum of steam and evaporates it automatically. The doors can be opened for a short period without significant loss of heat or any risk of the operator being hit with a blast of hot air and steam. This powerful unit can regenerate a full load of plated meals in less than an hour with an electric loading of 6Kw using 2 x 15 amp single phase plugs or with a 3 phase supply.

If there is any delay for speeches or late arrivals, the trolley can automatically hold the correct core temperature until it is convenient to serve the food. After service, a cool down and clean, the unit reverts back to a chiller for the next serving.

Cost-effective solution

The Chillogen Banquet Trolley will pay for itself in a very short time. A highly competitive capital cost, reduction and better organisation of staff, plus savings in overtime hours combine to make this a very sound investment. There are other staff cost savings resulting from automation and elimination of additional handling. You load the plated meals once and don’t touch them again until it’s time to serve. Maintenance and running costs are also low, making the Chillogen Banquet Trolley an attractive proposition for large and small businesses.
