How BSI Can Help Improve Operational Sustainability

Transparency is a huge operational benefit in today's foodservice trends. Consumers want to know how the businesses they're spending money on is helping the environment, as well as how it showcases what's being produced. They want to know what steps restaurants and cafeterias are taking to be more sustainable, and how spending money there is, in turn, 'giving back' to the community. This form of transparency makes them feel as if they're helping out with going green.

INSTALL AND INTRODUCE BSI

With transparency and going green, you need the right appliances. BSI is embracing the green movement by creating their products to be more sustainable. Using 80-90% stainless steel and 15-50% aluminum in its melting practices, the company prides itself on utilizing primarily recyclable materials. Even their packaging is designed to be reusable and eliminate the need for disposable materials.

You might be wondering how this relates to your foodservice operation and helps out. By lowering your carbon footprint with BSI installations, you're showcasing the transparency consumers love. You can turn that university or college dining facility into a more sustainable environment by transitioning to BSI equipment. 

BSI AND SUSTAINABLE EQUIPMENT

BSI creates practical countertop designs that offer more visibility and plenty of advantages. Students and faculty, even visitors, will dine in solely because they can see the products you're offering. 

Many dealers get their counters built with one vendor, purchase guards and lights from BSI, purchase drop in hot and cold food wells from yet another manufacturer, and either assemble on the job site or ship into the millwork company they hired to build the counters.  With the ground to guard possibilities, BSI can build the cases, provide the solid surface, cost the solid surface, install their own wells (or someone else’s if necessary) and wire and install guards, lights, and heat.  The unit will leave the factory fully assembled and UL rated as a complete device.  The amount of time, labor, and money saved is well worth it, and you have one point of contact for the warranty of the unit.  This also reduces your your carbon footprint, as working with BSI solely has minimized shipping and handling to many places. Some additional benefits are highlighted below;

  • Using serving counters that are designed to maximize functionality can create the opportunity to serve a mixture of cuisines while providing under the counter storage and refrigeration. Additionally, with removable inserts, you're free to change up the design as needed. 
  • Food guards allow airflow while maintaining visibility and protecting your products from things like a potential sneeze. With raised bars and glass to shield, the appearance is sleek and appealing to hungry consumers. It's essentially the perfect way to showcase those delicious foods.
  • High performance LED lights are designed to be discreet and securely mounted. The light is designed to illuminate food without heating it or appearing unnatural. 
  • Digital menus allow you to discontinue wasting paper or cardboard and provides immediate details for the curious customer. Pack in nutritional information, ingredients and more all in one spot. 

With plenty of other incredible products from BSI, they are continuously expanding on equipment that reduces your carbon footprint, lowers energy consumption, and still provides your consumers with access to your products like never before. This not only helps you become more profitable with on-campus dining facilities, but it pushes your services to be more sustainable. Installing BSI equipment is a benefit to you and your consumers.
