Electro Calorique Group Meal Service Trolleys – Trusted Solutions for UK & Irish Healthcare Catering

At Stephens Catering Equipment, we are proud to supply and recommend Electro Calorique and ISECO meal service trolleys to healthcare and medical-social establishments across the UK and Ireland. With over 100 years of innovation, the Electro Calorique Groupe has become a global leader in designing reliable, ergonomic, and technologically advanced meal distribution solutions.

These trolleys are purpose-built to support Cook & Freeze, Cook & Chill, and Cook & Serve meal service organisations, ensuring that every meal is delivered safely, efficiently, and at the right temperature.

Why Choose Electro Calorique & ISECO Trolleys?

Electro Calorique and ISECO trolleys are designed with a clear mission: to protect food quality, improve user comfort, and ensure operational efficiency.

Thermocontact Technology – The Gold Standard

Unlike convection systems, thermocontact heating plates deliver gentle, precise heat directly to trays without blowing hot air. This prevents food from drying out, preserves its nutritional and organoleptic qualities, and operates in silence — all while maintaining temperature for service.

Key benefits of thermocontact heating:

• Individual electronic control per tray with a safety thermostat at 120°C

• No overheating, no noise, no air diffusion in the service area

• Maintains food quality, texture, and flavour

• Ensures reliability with minimal breakdowns

• Stainless steel construction with a service life of 20 years or more

Cooling Technologies for Every Need

Electro Calorique also leads in cold chain solutions with fast, reliable refrigeration technologies that adapt to different service models:

• CO₂ Cooling – Immediate cold production using dry ice injection for perfect cold chain control

• Ventilated Cooling – Mechanical refrigeration for quick, even temperature distribution

• Glycol Cooling – Centralised glycol water cooling system with long autonomy, low noise, and low operating costs

• Cooling Box Technology – A patented system that cools a full trolley in just 4 minutes with a combination of glycol and ventilated refrigeration

These versatile systems guarantee safe, efficient, and cost-effective cold food storage and distribution.
