Xmas delivery: reusable Chefstein® by Medanta masks
Next-level kitchen safety and hygiene is the new normal in the food service business. Staff in kitchens and front-of-house wear masks daily, sanitize surfaces endlessly and generally do all they can to ensure guests enjoy safe dining. However, such requirements can sometimes feel uncomfortable, both physically and as a sense of responsibility. Fredman delivered some helpful Season’s Greetings this week, the Chefstein® by Medanta masks, aimed to be both practical and comfortable.

Comfortable and stylish safety and hygiene
In true festive season spirit, Fredman team members have been delivering innovative, reusable antimicrobial masks to our business customers in Finland. The Chefstein® by Medanta masks introduce top level safety to the daily work of food professionals, but they also feel pleasant to wear. Style is not compromised either, as the masks definitely look the part!

Partnering with the innovative Finnish antimicrobial textile specialist, Medanta*, Fredman had the professional-level masks produced with the signature wordmark of its newest innovation, a digital kitchen management solution, Chefstein®, printed on the side of the mask.
The Chefstein® by Medanta masks utilize innovative antimicrobial technology, a comfortable microfiber and have a filter with 95% bacterial filtration efficiency. The antimicrobial technology helps prevent droplet transfer, helping both guests and staff feel safer.

Big picture from masks to digital kitchen management
“Fredman designed Chefstein® to enhance the efficiency of commercial kitchens, particularly within the key operational areas of food safety, hygiene and food waste. Digital kitchen management is one dimension of such efficiency, completed by additional, high-quality professional accessories. The reusable, antimicrobial Chefstein® and Medanta mask is an example of such innovative equipment. It allows food service professionals to focus on their professional passion for creating good food while easily managing safety and hygiene without discomfort,” says Ann Plough, Marketing Director at Fredman Perfect Kitchen.
At the start of a commercial kitchen innovation journey
The antimicrobial Chefstein® masks are the first result of the Fredman and Medanta partnership, which in time will extend to cover other innovative professional textile solutions. Both companies share a mutual commitment to top quality standards.
The mask collaboration is a natural extension of the Fredman vision of striving for the perfect kitchen. Living and breathing kitchens for the last 20 years, the Fredman offering covers everything from digital kitchen management solutions and automation devices to intelligent everyday commercial and home kitchen essentials.

The Fredman team is out delivering the Chefstein® and Medanta masks to customers, together with a Seasons Greeting this week — from a safe distance and wearing stylish, reusable antimicrobial masks, of course.
Fredman wishes everyone a delicious, comfortable and safe holiday season!
