Inox Equip Ltd fought off the competition with blistering 3D walkthroughs and dynamic CAD modelling when providing original designs for a top class dining room experience to school children across Lincolnshire.

Faced with the prospect of 14 School Serverys, part funded by Lincolnshire County Council and part funded by the schools themselves, getting backing from the schools was critical. This is where Inox Equip’s unique CAD service was able to model each school servery individually and produce high quality 3D presentation material to win over the governors and head teachers with each design.

The solution to providing a cost effective, yet high quality dining room experience was born through a strong relationship with counter manufacturer Alan Nuttall Ltd.

In order to design, manufacture and install a large quantity of school serverys in a short space of time, Inox and Nuttalls developed a modular servery counter system. The focus behind this system meant the manufacturing process was kept as simple as possible, whilst creating a flexible and high quality servery for each school.

The installation of these serverys was delivered with ultimate precision and coordination between the builders - Robert Woodhead, Inox Equip and Nuttalls to get the first 3 counters installed during the short Easter holiday.

Key Achievements

Waiting times have been hugely reduced from over 15 minutes to an almost instant service; this has allowed 300 extra meals to be served per week.

All the schools have reported a rise in uptake and therefore profit; more children are staying on site during lunchtime, not searching for lunch alternatives away from the school premises.

Overall an increased uptake has turned the deficit kitchens into a profitable business.
