Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Garden Patch, a bustling vegetarian café in York, recently overhauled their cookware to better manage their open kitchen and guarantee their strict no-meat promise. They needed pans that were visually distinct and could handle a busy lunch service.
"The Hygiplas green handle pans immediately simplified our line. The chefs can grab the right pan without a second thought, and our customers can see our commitment to their dietary needs. It's about speed, but more importantly, it's about trust."
Michael Davies – Owner, The Garden Patch
By implementing a full set, The Garden Patch eliminated cross-contamination risks and increased kitchen efficiency, allowing them to serve customers around 10% faster during peak hours.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before the first use, give the pan a good wash in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth.
- Rinse and dry it thoroughly.
- For best results, lightly season the non-stick surface with a thin layer of cooking oil before heating.
- Check that the handle's rivets are firm and secure.
Keeping It Going
- Always wash by hand. Dishwashers use harsh detergents that will damage the non-stick coating.
- Use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to avoid scratching the Teflon surface.
- Allow the pan to cool down before washing to prevent warping.
- Store by hanging it from its handle hook to protect the coating from scratches in a drawer.
