Colander Hendi 535523
Technical data 01 / 02
This Hendi Profi Line colander combines a broad 415 mm opening with a supporting base and two handles. Its perforated body lets kitchen teams rinse and drain ingredients, while the supported position keeps the utensil steady over a receiving bowl during the task.
Where it is used
In a preparation area, the base allows the colander to stand over a bowl as pasta or rinsed vegetables drain, freeing both hands for loading and transferring ingredients. The opposed handles provide grip points at either side when the colander needs to be repositioned between the sink and bench.
The short handles keep their projection beyond the body limited, helping the colander sit close to the sink or bowl without grips extending far into the surrounding work area. Its substantial build gives a planted feel when set down for loading, rather than relying on an operator to hold it throughout draining.
Care
Stainless steel resists corrosion in the damp conditions of washing and food preparation, and its smooth, non-porous surface is straightforward to keep clean. This makes it suitable for repeated wet-use cycles where food residue must be removed before the utensil returns to preparation.
Dishwasher washing provides a routine route for cleaning the colander after use, so it can be processed with the kitchen’s other washable utensils rather than relying on hand-washing alone.
How to choose
The broad diameter gives a wide opening for loading ingredients and draining a larger batch across the perforated body. The overall footprint and depth indicate how much bench or storage space it occupies; reserve a position where it can be set down ready for the next preparation task.
Its overall dimensions also help assess the space needed to move it between the sink, receiving bowl and preparation bench. The weight contributes a solid feel when stationed for loading, while the base supports it during drainage; together these features suit workflows that use the colander as a set-down utensil rather than holding it continuously.
