Colander Hendi 535509
Technical data 01 / 02
The Hendi Profi Line colander combines a supporting base and two handles with stainless-steel construction. Its broad opening is useful for draining larger batches of washed produce or cooked food at a preparation station. The supported design also lets it rest in position while the operator turns to another task.
Where it is used
Use the colander to drain rinsed vegetables or separate liquid from food over a bowl. The base supports it when set down, leaving hands free for another preparation task; the handles provide a grip on either side when it is time to move the colander. This makes it practical to separate stationary draining from carrying between work areas.
The short handles project only a limited distance beyond the body, which can help when positioning the colander in a compact sink or beside other equipment. Its substantial weight contributes to a planted feel when set down, useful when liquid needs time to drain while the operator attends to another preparation task.
Care
Stainless steel resists corrosion in damp kitchen conditions and is easy to keep clean, making it suitable for repeated wet preparation work. The colander can be washed in a dishwasher, so it can join the kitchen’s normal wash-up load after use.
That combination supports a routine in which the colander moves from rinsing or draining into wash-up and back to preparation. Its suitability for dishwasher cleaning is useful when several utensils need to pass through the same cleaning cycle during service.
How to choose
The overall footprint and height determine how much room the colander occupies. Compare its dimensions with the sink or prep area where it will be positioned, and with the storage space available between tasks. The broad opening is useful when a station regularly handles larger batches rather than draining food in smaller portions.
The colander’s substantial weight contributes to a planted feel when set down, while the base supports that resting position. The two handles offer a separate grip for lifting and moving it, helping distinguish draining from transfer between preparation steps. Consider those working and storage demands together when assigning it to a station.
