Underbench Dishwashers – Powerful Cleaning in a Compact Footprint
Underbench dishwashers are built for kitchens where every centimetre counts. Designed to slide neatly beneath benches, they are the go-to solution for cafés, bars and small restaurants working with limited space but demanding reliable hygiene.
Despite their compact form, these machines deliver fast cycles, sparkling sanitation and one-touch operation. With compatibility across standard basket sizes (400×400, 450×450, 500×500), they keep service moving smoothly without bulky hoods or exhaust systems. Underbench dishwashers do not require a hood, making them ideal for tight layouts and low-ceiling kitchens.
