Available with selected Convotherm, Merrychef and Crem models, the warranty extension provides UK operators with a further 365 days of reassurance.

Steve Hemsil, sales director of Welbilt UK & Ireland, said: “Whether a business is looking to invest in new equipment in order to satisfy increased takeaway demands, or an operator is looking to re-kit their kitchen during this period of lockdown in preparation for re-opening.

“The need for manufacturers to provide further added value and support on-top of top quality equipment is a must in these challenging times.

“It is for this very reason that we decided to extend our two-year parts warranty offer, providing operators with further operational peace of mind which will take them through the course of this pandemic and beyond.”

Welbilt has ‘ramped up’ their digital support methods enabling operators and dealers to ask questions to the Welbilt culinary service and sales teams.
