Plus: ACIS Floor-Standing Models: Discount Promotion Finishes At End Of April

Apuro is launching its ACIS range of water coolers into Europe and is actively seeking distributors. "We’ve successfully established the ACIS brand in the UK market," says European sales manager Nigel Elwick. "This is a natural progression for the range. Early indications suggest the technology used in developing our latest models, notably the DC (direct chill) units, will help us open up the continental market."

Apuro’s ACIS 800 Series of direct chill units offers a continuous supply of chilled, filtered mains water, using a refrigerated coil to chill incoming water directly instead of chilling water held in a reservoir tank. "The models are stylish and practical," says Elwick. "They are perfect in situations where a traditional tank-model can’t cope, such as in colleges where there are peaks of demand between classes."

Apuro’s new Friul juice extractors make short work of juicing fruit.

Health guidelines suggest five portions of fruit or veg every day to protect against a variety of diseases. An easy way for cafes and snack bars to encourage healthy eating and capture the health market is to offer pure fruit or vegetable juice as a menu option. As well as being a premium product, freshly prepared juice is a particularly good source of vitamins and minerals, and also a great way of replenishing lost fluids in the body.

Apuro’s new Friul juice extractors are excellent at preparing any pure fruit or vegetable juices for drinks or as a base for cocktails or cold soups. There are two models of Friul juice extractors available from Apuro. Both are designed for the continuous production of fresh, tasty juice and are fitted with 13 Amp plugs making it simple to get started juicing.

The UK is apparently the largest fast-food and take-way market in Europe. It’s double the size of the German market and three times that of the French. Pizza sales account for at least 10 per cent of this market sector and are still on the increase. And now perfect pizza is no longer the domain of specialist pizza restaurants with large ovens.

The latest Whirlpool electric SmartCook Pizza Oven from Apuro is small enough to stand on a worktop but makes a generous 34cm diameter pizza that looks and tastes as if it’s been cooked in a wood-fired oven.
