In the modern food business, there’s a big need to stand out. This could mean offering trendy menus, designing stunning dining areas, or creating efficient, professional kitchens to improve workflow, and maximise air quality. When it comes to designing your commercial kitchens, there are several pieces of equipment that can give your business a competitive edge, including fast-cooking ovens, food-preserving chillers, and bespoke extraction canopies.
A bespoke extraction canopy system can be a critical investment, improving performance, enhancing customer experiences, heightening productivity, and even uplifting your brand’s reputation, all of which can give your company a serious leg-up over its competitors. This is one upgrade you really shouldn’t overlook, and below, we’ll explain why.
How Bespoke Extraction Canopies Can Outperform Standard Units
Tailored Fit for Unique Kitchens
A generic canopy may work in theory, but no two kitchens are the same. Bespoke systems are measured, cut, and configured precisely for your layout, equipment, and workflow, meaning that they can work with low ceilings, tight corners, or split-kitchen layouts rather than against them.
Enhanced Energy Efficiency
Bespoke extraction canopies can also help enhance your kitchen’s energy efficiency. This is because they can be designed with variable speed controls, smart sensors, and optimised duct equipment. These additions mean your system only works as hard as it needs to, leading to huge potential cost savings in the long run.
Quiet Operation for Open Kitchens and Dining Areas
Loud, rattling canopies can be off-putting for diners, especially for places that have open kitchens. With custom models however, you have them engineered with soundproofing and smoother airflow paths, helping reduce unnecessary noise.
How Bespoke Extraction Canopies Can Improve the Customer Experience
Eliminating Unwanted Odours in Dining Areas
A bespoke canopy system can include advanced filtration and extraction that more effectively removes grease, smoke, and odours before they drift into the dining areas.
Keeping Front-of-House Cooler
Overheating isn’t exclusive to kitchens and can also spread to dining spaces. With properly designed extraction, your business can have a better time maintaining a consistent and comfortable ambient temperature.
How Bespoke Extraction Canopies Can Improve Staff Productivity
More Comfortable Staff
Extraction canopies can maintain better airflow, which results in a reduction in humidity. In addition to this, your staff can avoid issues related to heat-related fatigue. Both of these benefits allow your team to stay more comfortable during long shifts.
Smoother Workflow
Bespoke canopies can also be designed with task-specific zones, allowing your extraction system to remove smoke or vapour exactly where it’s generated. This can mean better visibility, better safety, and fewer interruptions.
How Bespoke Extraction Canopies Can Enhance Your Reputation
Customers will likely notice clean, modern-looking equipment, and a well-fitted extraction system can send a message to them that you care about presentation and professionalism. This can especially be the case if your kitchen is open.
