                 The images of the flood disaster, which left behind severe devastation in south-western Germany just a few weeks ago, are still present. They have left us dismayed and concerned. Many gastronomic and medical facilities were extremely damaged or even destroyed. We would like to make our contribution to the reconstruction: specialized trade partners and customers in the regions affected by the floods can still notify us of their need for Hupfer products until the end of the year, and we will then work out individual offers at special conditions. 
 In addition, we would also like to support the local social food services with our products wherever damage has occurred. In this way, we hope to be able to provide fast and pragmatic help for those affected.

                 Is the cart full or empty? Are the goods inside clean or non-clean? Is the cart intended for outward or return transport? 
 The new status indicator for medical carts puts an end to the guesswork. The high-quality stainless steel panel has two coloured areas (green and red) that clearly indicate the status of the cart. 
 What the colours mean is up to you: green/red could stand for clean/non-clean, empty/full, outward/return or other statuses.    In addition to the two coloured areas, the display also has laser-engraved symbols, for example so that it can be easily used by people who have trouble telling red from green. 
 The status indicator is resistant to disinfectants and suitable for use in washing devices. It measures 120 x 55 mm in the familiar high-quality, hygienic design and is now available as an option for all Hupfer medical transport carts.

                  Simply order your meal online, take your personalised tray, and enjoy perfectly cooked, hot food: Hupfer’s company catering system, which has been used at our headquarters in Coesfeld for years, has proved particularly effective during the Covid-19 pandemic. The system relies on the flexible preparation of individually trayed dishes using induction technology. This means that it can also be used in buildings without their own production kitchen, around the clock. You can find all information about Hupfer company catering  here .   
  Since the system works in an entirely contact-free manner and meets the highest hygienic standards, our company catering model has now also been recognised by the initiative  Einfach machen  under the motto  Innovationsschub Krise  as a ground-breaking example of work organisation during the pandemic.  
   Einfach machen    is an association of decision-makers from politics, administration and business, as well as local associations and clubs, whose aim is to strengthen and further develop Westmünsterland as a business location. You can find out more about the initiative  here .

                 Hygiene is a central issue when serving food, and not just in the time of Corona. In Germany, strict regulations control how food is served in order to protect the food from droplets, for example. Not only when coughing and sneezing, but also when speaking, the smallest particles are distributed in the room and, if there is no appropriate protection, they also settle on the food. 
 Hupfer’s new  sneeze and spit guard made of Perspex  is a useful addition to the selection of sneeze guards according to ISO 18865-4: The guard does not have to be laboriously assembled or permanently mounted at the food serving point , but can be simply set up directly at the serving point. 
 The dimensions of the guard can also cleverly be changed in no time at all as it can be used either horizontally or vertically, depending on what suits the respective serving situation better. 
 The guard is made entirely of Perspex, which not only ensures a simple, sleek design, but is also very easy to clean. Click  here  to go directly to the new product.

                 Exceptional situations require exceptional measures. For us here at Hupfer the top priority is now to prevent further spread of the corona virus as far as possible and to maintain our production. This is why we have already taken a large number of preventive measures, which you can find out more about here. 
  We are regularly updating this news article.  
      *  *******************************Update 2 February 2021********************************        
 100 Percent Hupfer Power We are still here to serve you, just as we always are 
 Still strong: Even in these difficult times we are keeping to our promise – “We make work flow” – 100 percent and with no compromises. Specifically this means that we continue to be available for you without restrictions during the familiar opening times and with the same quick response times. As you can see the unmatched power comes about because every single “Hupferan” makes a vital contribution – naturally while observing social distancing guidelines. 
 Stay strong: We continue to be at your service and do everything to overcome this enormous challenge together with you. 
      *  *******************************Update 27.01.2021********************************        
 Trade association confirms adherence to occupational safety and health protection rules at Hupfer 
 The BG ETEM trade association assessed adherence to the Corona-protection measures during an inspection on 26 January accompanied by Hupfer employees Egbert Flück, Dirk Offer and Peter Burlage. The result of the inspection report was: 
 “At the time of the inspection, the company was able to present itself in a good light in terms of occupational safety and health protection. No defects were determined.” 
      *  *******************************Update 15th June********************************        
 The rules of conduct listed below continue to apply at least until 31st August. 
     *  *******************************Update 4th May********************************       
 Until 14th June inclusive, our rules of conduct continue to apply. This includes... 
 ...hand hygiene and spacing as a top priority  ...the spatial equalization of employees and working in divided zones  ...the temporal equalization of breaks, so that colleagues from different departments do not meet each other personally  ...the use of handover containers to transfer mail and other documents  ...the reduction of personal meetings or visits from outside the company to a minimum  This is to ensure that operations at Hupfer can continue despite the current situation.   
   ********************************Update 23th March*****************************   
 The rules of conduct for all employees at Hupfer have been extended with effect from 23 March. This includes that... 
 ......individual zones have been set up throughout the building, which are only entered by the employees working there. From now on members of a department actively step out of their personal zone in order to communicate with other employees. 
 ... the break times have been equalized so that employees from production and administration now spend their breaks at different times. The break rooms are additionally cleaned and disinfected between the respective groups. 
 ...external persons can now only enter the building up to the goods sluice. 
 In addition, the disinfectant dispensers in the transition areas (corridors / floors) will be extended throughout the entire building. All other measures (see below) will of course continue to apply. 
 ******************************************************************************** 
  Health and desocialisation:  
 
 Employees with health problems and critical functions in the company do their work in the home office 
 
 
 Social contact is kept to a minimum. Rules of conduct apply which stipulate a self-determined minimum distance of two metres to other people. This eliminates the need for internal meetings and visits where these requirements cannot be met. 
 
 
 Direct contact with suppliers at the incoming goods department is subject to increase hygiene regulations restricted (e.g. separate toilet for external third parties, required hand disinfection). 
 
  Procedures and guidelines:  
 
 A hygiene guide was given to all employees, which was also sent to the employees&#039; private addresses in order to ensure the necessary care in hygiene in the private environment as well. These include an increasing frequency of hand washing and disinfecting before/after meals and before/after meetings. 
 
 
 Employees returning from crisis areas must report before starting work and are placed in a 14-day quarantine 
 
 
 The serving of food was time-equalized, seats were arranged according to the above described distance rules, the supply of open cold meals was stopped. 
 
 Taking into account the current requirements of the government and the World Health Organization, together we are doing everything we can to remain able to deliver. 
 In case of any remaining concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be happy to answer your questions personally.  Here  you can find the right contact person for your request.

                 At this year’s Intergastra in Stuttgart, Germany’s trade association for catering and commercial kitchen equipment (GGKA) presented its Best Partner awards for the 17th time in recognition of the performance of its suppliers. The 80 members of the association were asked to select their best partners according to aspects such as technical design and quality, reliability, complaints handling, goodwill and sales policy. 15 prizes were awarded in each category. The evaluation takes place using an automated procedure; in order to avoid unrealistic awards, all the nominated suppliers had to have received a minimum number of ratings from trade dealers. 
 The stringent award procedure means Hupfer can be all the more pleased about first place in this year’s  logistics  category. 
 &amp;nbsp;“We have a good level overall among the suppliers,” said Rudolf Lacher, Chairman of the GGKA, as he praised the prize winners. He was pleased about the high level of participation from specialist dealers, which he said, “also underlines the importance of the Best Partner award in our industry”.

                 For the 39th time, 24 apprentices from the cook, restaurant and hotel business training occupations competed for the coveted Münsterlandgabel (Münsterland fork) on Monday 27 January 2020. The competition for apprentices is run by the training organisation  Köcheclub Münster e.V.  and is sponsored by Hupfer. This year it was held in the  Restaurant Ackermann  in Münster Roxel. 
 The competition is held annually and helps gastronomy professionals come together to discuss their experiences. In addition, the competition gives interested members of the public a chance to see the highly developed skills of the apprentices in the Münsterland area. 
 This year Pascal Brinckwirth proved to be the cream of the crop of young chefs. His four-course menu impressed the jury and won him first place. The trainee chef is an apprentice at the  Gasthof Driland  in Gronau. Jan Klossek from the  Hotel Kaiserhof Münster  took first place in the category for hotel business specialists and Greta Traumann from  Großen Kiepenkerl Münster  was the winner among the restaurant specialists. 
 The participants were particularly pleased with the very special trophies. The high-quality trophies were created especially by Hupfer and are genuinely unique. 
  &amp;nbsp;

                  Hupfer has successfully introduced a quality management system according to ISO 13485. This has now been confirmed in an audit by an independent institute. The Coesfeld-based company is one of the world’s first manufacturers in its sector to be certified according to the ISO standard for medical devices.  
 Hupfer intentionally chose to use this standard. This is because the focus and product safety objective of ISO 13485 are specifically orientated to medical devices. This is in contrast to ISO 9001, which is based on customer satisfaction. “We work with clinics in over 60 countries around the world, especially in Europe and the United States, and we naturally want to be able to provide the highest standards of safety,” says Robert Otzmann of Hupfer. “With the successful audit according to the internationally valid ISO 13485 we can now make that guarantee to our customers.” 
 The auditors were impressed by Hupfer’s new safety concept, which was implemented in just six months. Even more transparency in the production process and logistics, and therefore a new level of risk management, are ensured by several measures in the now improved system. As part of the certification, Hupfer classified its instrument baskets, mesh bowls and all instrument fixtures in accordance with the medical devices directive. 
 “Patients and users can continue to rely on the safety of medical devices from Hupfer,” says Marc Gäbel, Head of Quality Management at Hupfer. “That’s because the certification proves that we meet the highest standards on all process levels, from the delivery of raw materials through production to the user at the operating table.”

                 A Hupfer product has won a Gold Innovation Award in England for the second time in a row. The innovation competition was held on the second day of the Commercial Kitchen Show in Birmingham and the recently developed Therma Dry was in the running for a prize. Last year Hupfer won gold in this competition with the cold-warm plate.&amp;nbsp; 
 The competition involves trade fair visitors and customers voting for their favourite product on the first day of the exhibition. On the second day of the trade fair, the exhibitors who have received the most votes from the public present their product to a jury. The jury then decides on the winners.&amp;nbsp; 
 “We see the award as proof that our products are meeting current demand. Undoubtedly, in future we will be required to come up with more products that are easy to use, versatile and economic,” explained Hupfer UK Director Philipp Schumacher.

                 By positioning itself as a provider of  “Efficient Food Performance” , at this year’s Internorga Hupfer’s main focus will be consistently directed at foodstuffs. Whether mobile bain maries, plate dispensers or buffet carts – gentle regeneration processes, appealing presentation of dishes, economic efficiency and compliance with foodstuffs directives are some of the key quality features that Hupfer solutions can provide.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; 
    
 Appropriately, Hupfer is showcasing  the latest generation of Therma Dry . The ergonomic system used for the energy-efficient, dry-heated hot food servery is based on infrared technology, requires no pre-heating, and ensures a constant temperature without carryover cooking.&amp;nbsp; 
 There’s another new product that Hupfer is also presenting for the first time at the Internorga: the gantry heat lamp with innovative light reflectors, which won prizes in England. It bundles the light in a way that ensures the heat is transferred to the food without scatter losses. The reflector ensures that surfaces that are safe to touch, in particular the stainless steel components of the gantry heat lamp, reach a maximum temperature of just 40° Celsius. This makes cold dishes and hot surfaces a thing of the past. 
  Hupfer trade fair highlights  
 
 Therma Dry: makes it possible to keep dry foods warm at a constant temperature without pre-heating while saving energy. 
 New gantry heat lamp: with an innovative light reflector, dishes remain warm without scatter losses. 
 NORM 20 secured shelving: the shelving module can be locked and is suitable for a variety of functions, and guarantees secure storage of valuable foodstuffs. 
 Mobis buffer cart: an innovative solution for realising individual patient requests in the distribution and serving of breakfast and the evening meal, for example. 
 Devices with designer film: the devices are available with hard-wearing films in a range of colours, and allow customers to configure their own individual look.
