How to make your hotel or casino more sustainable.

Already a leading construction choice in education, sustainable design is now getting the attention of executives in the lodging and casino industry. Sustainability seeks to create buildings that are environmentally responsible, healthy and prosperous. Generally, in a sustainable building, the air is healthier to breathe, resources such as water and energy are conserved, and the cost of operation is considerably lower than a conventional building. In fact, the average energy savings are 30%; water savings are 30% to 50%; and waste savings as much as 90%.

Attractive to millions of travelers concerned about the environment, sustainable design could be an important differentiator in their selection of a hotel or casino.

As a member of the U.S. Green Building Council, Hobart is committed to supporting Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) and to the research and development of products that support sustainability.

Our warewashers are the leaders in water-saving and energy-saving technologies, reducing operating costs as much as 70%.

For your disposables, Hobart has the WastePro™ Pulper, which can reduce foodservice waste as much as 88%. Traulsen Energy Star rated refrigerators and freezers can lead to energy savings as high as 45%. With Hobart, you can make any building more sustainable.

Lowering costs by improving productivity.

The lodging and casinos industry is definitely a people business. Whether it’s the friendly, welcoming smile of the concierge or the chef’s extra little attention to the plate that makes for a great presentation, it’s your people who can make all the difference. The importance of people is why labor accounts for more than 40% of all operating costs. One way to reduce those costs is to increase productivity.

Hobart has a number of ways to help you increase your staff’s productivity, ways that will actually make their work easier, too.

For versatility and productivity, the perfect combination is the Hobart Combi® Oven. It lets your chefs shorten cooking time by combining steam mode and convection mode in any sequence they want. Programmable for up to 100 different recipes, you can use it for baking, grilling, roasting, steaming, proofing, rethermalization and low-temp cooking.

Hobart also ratchets up productivity with our ovens. The oven “Cool” switch on our HEC5 Series electric oven allows rapid cool-down, to cook a product at a lower temperature. The 1/2-H.P., two-speed oven blower motor means there’s more even heat distribution throughout for consistent cooking.

For all your mixing needs, Hobart has the Legacy® Mixer, the only one with a swing-out bowl that makes it simple to add ingredients, take out product, remove and mount bowls. Featuring the classic Hobart mixing speeds so many chefs base their recipes on, the Legacy carries on the tradition of long-lasting, durable performance, lowering the cost of ownership while improving productivity.

The more varied your menu, the greater the food safety challenge.

In the lodging and casinos industry, foodservice operations can be virtually non-stop, putting an added strain on your best practices for food safety.

Food safety at Hobart is closely aligned with the government’s stringent HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) food safety program. Required in several food industries, following HACCP principles greatly enhances a food safety program.

Our Traulsen Blast Chillers take food through the Danger Zone—from 135°F to below 41°F—in approximately 90 minutes. The whole process is fully monitored for HACCP compliance by unique SmartChill™ microprocessor controls and is documented by two built-in printers. One printer creates a HACCP-compliant record, while the other generates an adhesive label that you can put on the product’s container, serving as care instructions for your staff.

Cooking with HACCP

We adhere to HACCP procedures with our cooking also. Our combi oven has an optional Hobart Communication Product Control (HCPC) recording system that monitors your product to ensure HACCP compliance.

Hobart’s Combi Ovens let you practice food safety with almost infinite variety in cooking, including baking, grilling, roasting, steaming, proofing, rethermalization and low-temp cooking.

Of course, the cornerstone of any food safety program is proper storage of perishables. Traulsen refrigerators and freezers use a combination of microprocessors and their exclusive airflow system to precisely control temperatures. Also available in space-saving undercounter designs, they can keep your food fresh and safe.
