Why Your Commercial Kitchen Should Have NSF Approved Equipment

Posted on

Founded in 1944, NSF (short for National Sanitation Foundation)  is a non-for-profit organization that develops standards for food safety. When a product is NSF certified, this ensures that the product has been tested by one of the most important organizations in the food service industry. Through comprehensive testing & regulating, engineers &  health professionals have helped NSF develop more than 90 public health and safety standards, as well as 30 protocols for appliances and food equipment.

Therefore, any item or piece of equipment that has been tested features the NSF mark.

So, what does this mean for you?

  1. Having NSF-approved equipment means trust & satisfaction that you’re using the safest & most sanitary equipment possible. This is essential for any commercial kitchen. Poorly designed or malfunctioning equipment can lead to cross-contamination or even illness outbreak.
  2. Depending on your local health codes, certain equipment will most likely need to be NSF certified. Without the proper equipment, you could face violations & have to replace or remodel your kitchen to meet proper regulations. This means you could potentially lose customers and business! This is why it is important to check your local health regulations before equipping your commercial kitchen. Research is king!
