Product description

Traditional food warmers can waste a lot of energy as they heat an element, rather than the food. Not so with the Buffalo induction hot plate. Instead, this highly energy efficient buffet display unit uses induction technology to heat the pan itself, so almost all the energy goes straight into the food warming.

Not only does this significantly reduce the amount of energy (and cost) needed to keep food warm – it also makes the station safer, as there’s no flames or and fewer hot surfaces in comparison to traditional chafing dishes or hotplates. Plus, if the food pan is removed, the warmer will automatically switch off, saving even more energy and preventing wear and tear on the internal components.

Designed for everyday reliability, the Buffalo food warmer can fit a full-size (1/2) gastronorm tray on top, so there’s plenty of capacity for self-service breakfast items or lunchtime assisted services. And thanks to the simple design and flat ceramic glass cooking surface, the whole unit is easy to clean too. Partners perfectly with FT038 1/2GN induction chafer.

THE WORKING VIEW

Why this product earns its place

The Buffalo induction hot plate is a compact food warmer that uses induction technology to heat the pan itself, rather than heating an element first. That keeps the energy working where it matters and makes it an efficient choice for hot holding.

It is designed for everyday reliability and can take a half-size 1/2 GN tray on top, making it a practical fit for self-service breakfast items or lunchtime assisted service where a smaller footprint is useful. The flat ceramic glass surface and simple design also help when it comes to cleaning down after use.

The warmer automatically switches off when the pan is removed, which helps save energy and reduce wear on the internal components. Buffalo also notes fewer hot surfaces than traditional chafing dishes or hotplates, which makes it a more controlled buffet station.
