Firex
Firex began with a team of innovators designing cooking equipment that could scale up the bistro and high-level cuisine to larger catering services and even to the industrial kitchen. Based in Italy, and inspired by Italian chefs, the company managed to enhance their country's cooking traditions with technology. By incorporating the automation of key elements in the cooking process, Firex was able to increase cooking capacity while giving commercial chef's more control over the results. Over time, Firex continued to innovate and uses the latest advancements in technology to increase cooking speed, control temperature, reduce labor, and enhance kitchen safety. Now, as part of the Middleby Corporation, Firex is able to reach new commercial food service markets. The company's product catalog includes appliances that can be used in a wide variety of applications, from sous-vide and pressure-cooking to roasting and braising equipment.
