UNOX brings cutting-edge technology-equipped Speed-X to India

Commercial combi-oven brand UNOX has brought to India cutting-edge technology equipped Speed-X which aims to usher in a brand new class of commercial grade ovens. With this, the company has added another feather to its glorious cap for the food service sector. The evening began with Vikram Goel, Managing Director, UNOX India, inaugurating the event in the presence of Matt Roberts, Director of Customer Experience, UNOX.

UNOX implemented familiar technologies from its existing cooking equipment range, such as Steam.Maxi and Adaptive.Cooking, but many of these are also optimised for the new Speed-X. For example, Multi.Time programming, the technology that allows users to cook different products at different times in the same oven, will allow up to 10 dishes to be prepared at once.

This innovation removes the need for compromise and enhances the efficiency and standard of cooking operations. It cooks food 60 per cent faster than its predecessors owing to its two fans and because of the revolutionary HYPER.Speed technology, which combines steam, air and microwave. Food can be heated, cooked and browned in a matter of seconds. For instance, a sea bass fillet is completely cooked in just 90 seconds, and a toasted chicken tikka kebab is ready in just 180 seconds.

The event was graced by eminent personalities from culinary and hospitality experts and veterans, chef consultants, business domain and influential corporate circles. 

Dealer partners from around India, and the world were present to hear UNOX’s management team discuss the company’s goals for international expansion before taking a tour of the work-space, watching the product demonstrations and the launch of the first-ever self-washing, combi-speed oven, Speed-X. 

UNOX has also equipped Speed-X with cutting edge technology, such as the advanced Digital.ID operating system which utilises artificial intelligence along with Hyper.Connection, and an intuitive interface that would allow users to control and navigate through the oven easily. “The Speed-X is the first oven to combine the capabilities of a combi oven and those of a speed oven, with an additional self-cleaning capability,” said Goel, adding, “This not only increases the oven's functionality beyond what was previously conceivable but also enables a remarkable rise in commercial kitchen efficiency.”

Revealing ambitious plans for growth in 2022 to 2023, UNOX has seen consistent gains in market share across the commercial cooking equipment sector. According to Nicola Michelon, the CEO of UNOX, the company is on the path to increase its global revenues from €182 million last year to €230 million in 2022 with the goal of reaching €336 million by 2025. 

UNOX India has experienced monumental growth over the year, with over 80 per cent increase in staff, and regional coverage spanning the entirety of India. Driven by product innovation and the company’s ability to offer ongoing support to customers and partners alike, UNOX India continues to grow and reach wider markets.
