The rush is loud, the tickets are nonstop, and the last thing your team needs is an ice setup that can’t keep pace. Because service moves fast, your team shouldn’t have to wrestle with slow ice runs, melted bins, or equipment that can’t keep up. Together, the Follett Ice Bagging and Dispending System and SlidingLid Ice Caddy create a smoother, cleaner, and more reliable ice flow from the second the shift heats up. Follett begins the solution with hands-free dispensing which speeds up prep, reduces touchpoints, and helps keep cross-contamination in check. It delivers ice fast and clean, so your team can stay focused on the work that truly matters. Cambro takes it from there with a SlidingLid design that keeps ice above melt water, protects it from contamination, and gives your staff easier access during the rush. Thick insulation slows down melting, and the durable, impact-resistant build with stands busy kitchens and long catering days without wearing down.

Together, they remove the everyday frustrations:
Slow ice runs? Solved.
Cross-contamination risk? Solved.
Ice melting too fast? Solved.
Bins breaking down on you? Solved.

Ready to upgrade your ice flow? Your Chrane Rep can help you get started.
