SPEC 316 STAINLESS · BA FINISH

Bespoke RATIONAL Oven stands

Bespoke RATIONAL oven designed around two things service engineers and operators actually need: full access underneath the oven, and the ability to move the unit without dismantling the cook line around it.

SPEC 316 STAINLESS · BA FINISH

Stainless Steel Tundishes

Stainless steel tundishes built for commercial kitchens. Wall and Floor solutions, bespoke outlets and dimensions suited to your exact needs.

From Brief to Install.

Every fabrication job follows the same five stages. Same team, same floor, same signed-off drawings from first quote to final install.

VERIFIED · R-TEC WALSOKEN

Why Fabrication Under One Roof.

The advantages you can't get anywhere else. Not positioning. Not marketing. The things only possible when design, fabrication, installation, and service all live on one floor.

01 AUTHORISATION

The only RATIONAL-authorised provider with in-house fabrication.

Every other RATIONAL service partner subcontracts fabrication. We don't. Your service engineer and your fabricator work in the same building, for the same company.

UK EXCLUSIVE · RATIONAL CERTIFIED
02 COORDINATION

The fab team talks directly to the engineers who'll maintain it.

Design decisions factor in how a unit will be serviced in five years. Access panels, weld lines, clearances — specified by people who'll be the ones reaching in.

ONE COMPANY · END-TO-END
03 FLEXIBILITY

Spec changes mid-project? Handled in-house, not subcontracted.

When a site survey turns up a surprise — a column in the wrong place, a ceiling lower than the drawing — we redraw, re-fabricate, and re-install. No third-party workshop to chase.

NO HANDOFFS · NO DELAYS
