Eagle announces expansion of its Director’s Choice line of caeteria equipment

Nov. 26, 2008 – Eagle Foodservice Equipment announces a major expansion of its Director’s Choice® line of cafeteria equipment.  New products in several key categories are being introduced, including cold and hot food serving units, a variety of dispenser units, and serving shelves.

Newly introduced solid top cold food storage units incorporate a refrigerated base with thermostatic temperature controls.  These versatile units are designed for durable, long-life performance, and feature type 304 stainless steel tubular construction fully insulated with decorative laminate or optional stainless steel panels.  Units are offered in standard lengths of 64” with one door and 78” with two doors. Stainless steel interiors feature angle-slides for 12”x20” hotel pans. Options include a rack for 18”x26” pans or 2-20”x20”x5” pans.

New heated surface units feature rugged type 304 stainless steel tubular construction with decorative laminate panels.  The heated surface features a recessed top of hard coated aluminum with blanket-type foil heater for uniform heating.  Fiberglass insulation plus a built-in adjustable thermostat precisely control the temperature of the heated surface.  The surface is easy to clean using a soft damp cloth or non-abrasive cleanser.  The heated shelf units are available in 36”, 50”, 64”, 78”, and 96” lengths and can be used with the entire line of Director’s Choice® options and accessories.

Among the new dispenser units being introduced are tray, silverware and napkin dispensers, and dish/cup dispensers.  Each of these units features welded type 304 stainless steel tubular construction with decorative laminate panels on all four sides.  The dispensers utilize an adjustable self-leveling carrier mechanism to release items at the serving line or beverage serving point.  The dish and cup dispensers are available in heated and non-heated models as well.  All units include non-marking poly casters for easy, go-anywhere portability.

Also being introduced are new decorative serving shelves.  These shelves are offered for cafeteria and buffet-style service, in serve-over and serve-under configurations.  The sleek styling features a choice of satin-finish type 304 stainless steel tubing or powder-coated, nickel-plated steel.  The units feature polycarbonate shelves and sneeze guards, with stainless steel shelf inserts and tempered glass also available.  Shelves and guards are easily removable for quick cleaning without the use of tools.  Additional factory-installed options include end guards, display lighting, and overhead food warmers.

All Director’s Choice® equipment from Eagle is custom-built to exacting customer specifications, and meets NSF and UL standards and is M.E.A. listed.
