What is the correct washing up temperature to avoid the spread of coronavirus disease COVID-19 on plates, cutlery, glassware, and how do we do it ?
Hygiene has always been a priority in our group activities. For nearly two decades we have spent more time and budget than the vast majority of our competitors.
Our investments in commercial washing equipment has been at the forefront of our Company’s business plan to stand out from our competitors who provide a cheaper risky process.
Our catering division has always held the highest 5 star food hygiene rating. Our food supplies to over half a million clients have never been queried, challenged or complained about in two decades.
Our Company boasts 20 walk in refrigeration units, 25 Winterhalter commercial washers across our group. We supply over 100 Rational, Convotherm and Blue Seal ovens which are also professionally deep cleaned after each hire, rental or event use.
Over the years I have heard of our competitors hand washing, hand polishing plates, cups, glasses, and cutlery. These providers are spreading other peoples germs using contaminated cloths resulting in low temperature amateur washing facilities from their cottage businesses.
Rest assured our washing equipment consistently washes at 82 degrees centigrade, which exceeds the temperature to kill the coronavirus disease COVID-19. Computerised detergent dosing adds to your protection on all our washing processes.
In addition to the above wash up proceedures we also protect you hired tableware from post wash-up contamination by delivering hire glassware, hire cutlery and hired china packed and sealed in thier own easy to open bags.

What is Diesel Bug ?
There is a UK Diesel Bug Epidemic
Since the introduction of bio diesel into the off road diesel fuel market, the chance of catching diesel bug has increased over recent years. There have been several ways to avoid the diesel bug which causes a diesel engine to stop working. Our generator department www.eventgenerator4hire.co.uk have always been vigilant testing our fuel, checking for any water contamination and blending high grade road fuel with a high quality off road commercial diesel fuel.
Blending fuels with additives give protection to the engines, reduces smoking, reduces wet stacking, makes the engine more efficient which in turn uses less fuel. Win win for us and our customers. During our end of season maintenance programme which includes 45 generators, 14 SMC TL90 Tower Lights and 7 fuel bowsers, our Chef Engineer was alerted to a phenomenon which hasn't ever been seen before.
One of our 950L fuel bowsers had been cleaned out, the high output 5 micro fuel filter had been changed, the fuel was being pumped through a polishing machine and a scum appeared which when touched had a waxy feel to it - Diesel Bug !
The whole 950 delivery was pumped out and will be treated before using in our steam cleaner. We wouldn't risk re-filling a generator or Tower light with a pre-contaminated load.
Why did we catch the diesel bug and where did the fuel come from ?
The fuel load had been delivered 3 weeks previous, we have used the fuel company for a number of years without any problems. I enquired last year as to the percentage of bio fuel in their diesel, they became defensive suggesting that we thought they were selling contaminate fuel. They did say they would supply us an additive to stave off any bugs, but they didn't.
Rather that call the fuel company again this week, I contacted a laboratory who advertised treatments for diesel bug to cure and to protect. They said, "the country is rife with diesel bug contamination since the percentage of bio diesel had be almost doubled by recent legislation".
Fortunately we have escaped a full blown epidemic within our fleet in the run up to the Christmas period as the country runs out of diesel fuel filters.
What does the future hold ? Ongoing our policy of not allowing "canning" in of customers own fuel will continue and extend to not allowing fresh fuel from the pumps in new supplied jerry cans which may well be void of rust, water and any other contaminates. Strickly no "canning" and no re-fuelling by customers unless via a hired bowser from us with a protected fuel on board.
We have run a few tests on this bug, these are the results - New high volume 10 micro fuel filter from new, blocked solid after 140 litres ! Just imagine what would happen if our fleet went out to important events and the equipment brokedown.
Think about this - you want to hire a small aeroplane with a diesel engine, they won't allow you to bring your own fuel. There is a very good reason why.

Bonfire Night - Tower Lights TL90 Hire
With Guy Fawkes night around the corner we brought our TL90 Tower lights into our workshop for an early makeover and spruce up. As the TL90 Tower lights stay outside 24/7 365 days a week we must treat them with the care and attention required for them to return back a good and reliable service. £3,500 Raised for Childrens Charity
We were contacted by Ben Burston a local entrepreneur who operates several high end pubs and restaurants in the South of England. Ben was seeking information regarding pizza ovens that were capable of producing a high quality home made pizza in the field.
The venue was indeed in a field at Night Pastures, Fernhurst a popular glamping venue situated near the South Downs. Ben and his colleague Guido were organising the event to raise money for Child Rescue Nepal a charity Ben explained was involved in trying to end all child trafficking in Nepal. I immediately told Ben we would get involved.
Ben was organising the catering and refreshments. Keeping costs to a minimum was paramount in producing a high yield.
We delivered two of our single deck electric pizza ovens which was powered up by a SDMO 10Kva portable generator with AVR. We calculated that under an 80% load the generator would provide 6Kw over the event on a full tank of fuel.
Fortunately the weather was perfect all through the event which raised 3,500.
Our thanks to Ben and his staff at the Rising Sun Milland for looking after our equipment during the event.
As an International Event Catering Equipment supplier we are always keen to support our clients needs, and also work with them on Charity Events.
