Glass Washers

What are the advantages of a professional glass washer?

How do you clean a catering glass washer?

Every catering business and professional kitchen is different. The choice of professional dishwashers depend largely on the type of kitchen you have. The specialists of Maxima can advise you on how to choose the one that suits your situation best.
