This is the ideal solution for those wishing to differentiate their product range.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Container: perforated <\/b><span class=\"s1\"><b>metal sheet <\/b><\/span><b>or <\/b><span class=\"s1\"><b>micro-stretched <\/b><\/span><b>mesh<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The body of the basket can be made from <b>perforated metal<\/b> <b>sheet <\/b>or <span class=\"s1\"><b>micro-stretched <\/b><\/span><b>mesh<\/b>, depending on the desired balance between drainage area, strength and aesthetic appeal. <b>A plastic handle <\/b>can be fitted to the handle, consisting of two parts that can be assembled using a mechanical coupling system: a solution designed to improve ergonomics and thermal insulation during everyday use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: #63a3da;\"><b>False-bottom grids for pasta cookers: protection and durability<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>False-bottom grids<\/b> are designed to be fitted to the base of the cooking tank and to shield the baskets from the heating elements. <b>They are made to measure, either to a drawing or based on a sample<\/b>, so as to fit perfectly into the machine\u2019s internal geometry and optimise the available space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For a manufacturer of equipment for the HoReCa sector, a well-dimensioned false-bottom grid means:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li1\">greater protection for the baskets and the cooking tank over time;<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">more stable and repeatable thermal behaviour;<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">reduction in premature wear.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: #63a3da;\"><b>Materials and certifications: AISI 304\/316 stainless steel and electropolished finish<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The environment inside a pasta cooker \u2014 boiling water, steam, continuous cycles \u2014 is demanding, and components in contact with food must meet precise standards. For this reason, Toffoli\u2019s baskets and false-bottom grids are made from AISI 304 or AISI 316 certified stainless steel, with a pickled, electropolished and passivated finish in accordance with DIN 8590.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: #63a3da;\"><b>Why develop these components with a specialist partner<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Toffoli\u2019s <span class=\"s1\">experience<\/span> stems from the processing and fabrication of steel wire and from its long-standing collaboration with machinery manufacturers as a <b>partner<\/b>, not merely as a supplier.
