Insulation is perhaps the single biggest
improvement to foodservice cooking
equipment in the last 25 years. Why did
we develop it? Why should you buy it? The
answer to both questions is simple: safety
and savings. In fact, we’re so confident
that our new line of insulated equipment
will make such a drastic difference in your
kitchen, that we’re selling the insulated
products at the same price as our noninsulated
units.
"Foodservice managers and
operators are quick to agree
that their equipment is hot and
potentially dangerous to work
around, causing burns and accidents,"
says Legion President
Chuck Brown. "That is why
we developed insulated cooking
equipment: to protect your
employees and have the added
benefit of being more environmentally
friendly."
Legion began manufacturing insulated foodservice equipment in the
early 1960s. When Chuck Brown purchased
the company in the late 1980s,
he advanced the original insulation design
and first offered it on the insulated
direct steam kettle. Since then, Legion
has incorporated insulation into every
foodservice unit it makes, including the
popular Skittle® Cooker, The Combi-
Pan® Tilting Skillet and the entire line
of insulated, self-contained kettles.
"Legion’s insulated equipment keeps
the inmates and my staff from getting
hurt," says Dick Dansdill of the
Fremont Correctional Facility in Canon
City, Colorado. "I run a steam kitchen
and the non-insulated equipment gets
very hot. One slight bump against it
and I’ve got someone with a serious
burn. Not to mention the fact that an
insulated kettle is more economical and
efficient. I don’t know why someone
would buy anything else."
