Commercial catering equipment that keeps up with your kitchen

  • Catering
  • September 6, 2025

With long hours, high heat and intense demands already putting lots of pressure on your catering staff, choosing the right equipment to fit out and support your kitchen operations is essential. Here’s why choosing commercial-grade systems will help you keep up with service – then clean up quickly afterwards.

Commercial kitchen

Equipment built to last

Whether you’re running a canteen or a popular café, durability is a non-negotiable for any high-volume kitchen. That’s because, in busy cooking environments, only heavy-duty catering equipment can handle the pressure without hiccups, allowing staff to produce consistent results with speed as well as efficiency.

Service at speed

Whether it’s rapid-heating induction hobs or versatile, multi-function combi ovens, using commercial appliances will help to cut down your kitchen’s prep time and keep lines moving, so no one – from front-of-house to your customers – is left waiting on food.

Induction hobs in particular can optimise how you cook, using up to 70% less energy to heat pans directly, with no flame or element required. This means pans and food not only get up to temperature faster, but cool down faster, too – making life easier, and safer, for your cooks.

Meanwhile, the latest generation of equipment comes with smart features like pre-programmed settings and auto-clean cycles that save you even more time and hassle.

Consistency for quality control

Serving up nutritious, quality meals also means taking care to maintain strict hygiene standards, even during your kitchen’s peak hours. This is when commercial equipment’s precise temperature controls and accurate sensors come into their own – these innovations deliver peace of mind that you’re plating up perfectly cooked food, every time.

Commercial refrigeration systems can also protect and preserve your valuable stock, ensuring food safety can be taken care of from storage through to serving.

Efficiency and return on investment

Upgrading your kitchen with low-maintenance, high-efficiency commercial catering equipment can actively reduce your energy consumption as well as the impact of downtime, leading to lower bills and longer-term savings.

Appliances like JLA’s Energy Star-rated commercial combi-ovens can not only replace standalone steamers or convection ovens, but come with features like triple glazing and smart racking designed to reduce your emissions, speed up cooking times, and increase capacity.

The right equipment is also likely to boost your staff’s productivity by improving processes.

Preventative care to keep you running

Preventative maintenance is key to keeping your kitchen running smoothly, and reduce the need for reactive repairs or potential disruption. A trusted supplier can also make investing in essential equipment simpler.

JLA offers Total Care, an all-inclusive equipment and support package, which ensures you have the latest equipment with service and breakdown cover on hand, all for a simple monthly fee.
