A stainless steel table with two sinks and a lower shelf is a comprehensive washing solution for professional kitchens with high volumes of dish and utensil washing. Two washing basins allow different washing procedures to be carried out simultaneously, while the shelf provides convenient storage space right next to the work area in restaurants and canteens.
Advantages of double sinks
A table with two sinks allows simultaneous scrubbing and disinfecting — one basin can hold the washing solution, the other rinsing with clean water. This double washing procedure is a mandatory requirement in many HoReCa hygiene standards. The lower shelf provides additional storage space right next to the washing area, optimising staff movement. Restaurants and canteens with high washing volumes appreciate the logical functionality of such a table.
Advantages of stainless steel
Stainless steel is resistant to corrosion, does not absorb microorganisms and can be fully disinfected with standard food industry cleaning agents. The smooth metal surface allows for a high hygiene standard, which is a mandatory requirement in HoReCa kitchens. The equipment maintains its appearance and functionality even under conditions of prolonged intensive use. Stainless steel equipment is a long-term investment for a professional kitchen.
Shelf or doors
The open shelf provides quick and visual access to stored items without the difficulty of cleaning closed panels. If closed storage is needed for moisture protection, BHS also offers Metal Tables with Two Sinks and Doors. The choice between a shelf and doors is based on the specifics of kitchen work and cleaning convenience requirements.
Table with two or one sink
A double sink table is a justified choice if the kitchen has a high washing volume or requires simultaneous washing procedures. For smaller kitchens, BHS offers Stainless Steel Tables with Sink and Shelf — a more compact and economical solution. The choice between one and two sinks is based on washing volume and procedure complexity.
Hygiene requirements and regulations
Food industry and HoReCa businesses operate in accordance with sanitary regulations that require specific washing areas and procedures. Stainless steel washing equipment with two sinks meets these requirements. Regular cleaning and disinfection with certified food industry agents ensure a continuous hygiene standard.
Size and configuration selection
Tables with two sinks are available in various widths to fit different kitchen layouts. A larger model is suitable for restaurants with a high volume of dishwashing, a smaller one for cafés with moderate workload. The depth of the sinks affects the size of dishes that can be washed. BHS helps businesses choose the right size for their specific application.
Installation and maintenance
The table with two sinks is installed by connecting the water supply to both sinks and the drainage system. Regular cleaning and disinfection maintain the required hygiene standard. Daily maintenance of metal surfaces and the shelf is simple. BHS provides stainless steel equipment maintenance for HoReCa businesses.
Double washing in a professional kitchen
A table with two sinks is a standard in restaurant kitchens where multiple washing procedures are required. One basin can hold the washing solution, the other rinsing with clean water, which is the most effective dishwashing procedure in manual washing. This procedure ensures both cleaning and rinsing, meeting the hygiene requirements of the food industry. Restaurants and canteens that do not use an automatic dishwasher or need additional washing capacity use the double sink configuration as a key element.
Restaurants and canteens with high workloads
A large restaurant or canteen with multiple shifts and a high turnover of dishes appreciates the advantages of a double sink table. The double capacity ensures greater throughput, allowing simultaneous washing and rinsing. The lower shelf allows immediate placement of washed utensils, freeing up the sink for the next dish. Both large canteens and cafés with busy lunchtime periods use this configuration as an optimal solution for efficient washing area organisation.
Size selection and kitchen layout
Double sink tables with a shelf are available in various widths. Larger models provide wider sinks and greater shelf capacity, smaller ones fit into limited spaces. The depth of the sinks determines the size of dishes that can be washed. Choosing the right table size according to kitchen space and washing volume is an important planning element. BHS helps businesses choose the right size and configuration.
Regulatory requirements and washing standards
Sanitary regulations for food businesses set washing area requirements according to the type and capacity of the business. A double sink table with one sink for rinsing and the other for cleaning is a compliant solution for traditional manual washing. Regular disinfection with certified food industry agents maintains the required hygiene standard. BHS advises on suitable equipment for specific business requirements.
