Product Description
Overview
The Carter-Hoffmann EPD3S9 enclosed plate dispenser is a purpose-built solution for restaurants launching quickly and needing reliable plate handling during service. Designed to accept 9" round plates (compatible with 5"–9" diameters) across three separate silos, this all-stainless-steel mobile dispenser keeps plates protected, organized, and ready at the pass. For new restaurant owners focused on speed to open and consistent foodservice performance, the EPD3S9 reduces the friction of service setup and improves throughput during peak periods.
Key Features
- Three-silo configuration: Separate compartments let you stage multiple plate sizes or service lines for faster plating and reduced cross-traffic.
- All stainless steel construction: Durable, corrosion-resistant exterior and interior for foodservice sanitation and long service life.
- Enclosed design: Keeps plates protected from airborne contaminants and guest view, supporting hygiene and presentation standards.
- Mobile with 5" casters and brakes: Move the unit easily during setup or service, then lock it in place for stable operation.
- Fits 5"–9" round plates: Flexible plate diameter compatibility reduces the need for multiple dispensers and supports menu changes.
- Unheated, low-power footprint: No heating element simplifies installation and utility coordination in tight kitchen buildouts.
- UL EPH certified: Built to recognized safety standards for peace of mind in commercial kitchen environments.
- Compact footprint: Efficient use of space near the pass or plating station—essential for busy kitchen layouts.
