How Commercial Condiment Dispensers Work
Commercial condiment dispensers operate on a beautifully simple principle that's all about controlled delivery. Pump dispensers use a spring-loaded mechanism—press down on the pump and it draws a measured portion of sauce upward through a tube, delivering consistent serving sizes every time. Gravity-fed models let thicker sauces like ketchup flow downward, while squeeze bottles give staff precise control for garnishing. Most feature airtight seals to preserve freshness, with capacities ranging from compact 1-litre bottles to hefty 5-litre containers for busy venues. The magic is in the measured portions—reducing waste and ensuring every customer gets just the right amount of sauce!

Top Tips for Using Commercial Condiment Dispensers
For optimal performance, clean dispensers thoroughly at the end of each day—don't just top them up. With thicker sauces like ketchup, slightly diluting with a splash of vinegar improves flow without affecting taste. Label each dispenser clearly to avoid mix-ups, and rotate stock properly using first-in-first-out. Consider keeping pump dispensers in cooler areas during summer months, and pair with condiment holders for a complete service solution that keeps everything organised and accessible.
