Frymaster wins 2011 Product of the Year Award from the Gas Foodservice Equipment Network (GFEN)
SHREVEPORT, LA. - March 3, 2011 - Members of the Gas Foodservice Equipment Network (GFEN) recently presented Frymaster with its prestigious 2011 Product of the Year Award in a ceremony held during the recent NAFEM (North American Association of Food Equipment Manufacturers) tradeshow. The award recognized Frymaster's industry-leading efforts in research, development, and commitment to excellence in developing its new Triple Play High Production Gas Fryer.
"The Product of the Year Award is presented annually to a manufacturer who brings to market a natural gas appliance that demonstrates outstanding innovation and superior performance in foodservice equipment," says Melisa Marks, Southern California Gas Company - Energy Resource Center and Co-chair of GFEN. "The Frymaster Triple Play Fryer can produce more perfectly cooked food in less space, using less energy and less oil, which will ultimately save foodservice operators money and reduce their impact on the environment."
Frymaster's Triple Play Fryer offers high energy efficiency and a flexible platform for high-volume frying without compromising on quality or features while providing a lower cost of operation. In addition, the 6" deep high-efficiency burner tubes expand the heat transfer area reducing the heat load on the oil, which in turn, contributes to an extended oil life. A 52.4% ASTM rating saves energy dollars and contributes to green and sustainability initiatives.
"We are greatly honored to receive the Blue Flame Award from GFEN. Our Triple Play Fryers contribute to Frymaster's sustainability mindset with oil and energy conservation initiatives in smaller footprints. We have woven our values of sustainability, footprint reduction, oil conservation, and reliability into the fabric of this fryer, says Kathy Veder, vice president of marketing for Frymaster.
