If you've ever stepped into a cafeteria or buffet-style dining environment, you’ve probably noticed those handy tray dispensers. These units are indispensable in high-volume service areas like cafeterias, hotels, or large restaurants. Why? Because they simplify the management of unwieldy trays and allow customers to easily access their food trays. Plus, they keep your trays organized and safe from damage! IMC tray dispensers are designed to handle various tray sizes commonly used in commercial kitchens. Whether you need a tray dispenser for standard 14” x 18” trays or larger ones, there’s likely an option that fits perfectly. Let's break down the main types of tray dispensers and offer some advice to help you choose the right one for your needs. **Types** There are three primary types of tray dispensers: 1. **Freestanding Tray Dispensers** IMC currently offers this versatile model, which resembles a traditional plate dispenser. These dispensers come with wheels for easy mobility, making them ideal for large-scale environments. Some models even include a built-in silverware dispenser, allowing you to store utensils in perforated cylinders—either made of stainless steel or nylon—for a clean and organized setup. One standout feature of these dispensers is their self-leveling design. This ensures trays are distributed evenly, maintaining balance during storage and dispensing for a polished look. Springs play a crucial role by gently lifting the trays upward, ensuring they’re always within reach. You can adjust the spring tension for precise height customization. 2. **Tray Dollies** If you're looking to store trays without dispensing them, tray dollies are a great solution. These dollies have high capacity and are specifically designed to ease the transport of large quantities of trays. 3. **Drop-In Tray Dispensers** Similar to drop-in plate dispensers, these units mount directly into your existing countertop. They’re ideal if you have ample cabinet and counter space to install your dispensing system. **Buying Tips** Now that you know the main types of tray dispensers, here are some key considerations to guide your purchase decision: - **Tray Size Compatibility**: The first thing to check is whether the dispenser can accommodate your specific tray sizes. Common tray dimensions in foodservice include 14” x 18”, 15” x 20”, and 20” x 20”. Make sure the dispenser holds your trays securely and neatly. - **Additional Features**: Some tray dispensers can be equipped with a silverware dispenser, which is beneficial in high-volume settings to keep utensils centralized. Always remember that IMC tray dispensers can be customized to meet your unique requirements. At IMC/Teddy, we take pride in manufacturing reliable and efficient tray dispensers.
