Winterhalter
extends finance options on leasing, rental and pay per wash
In recent weeks Winterhalter
has seen a surge in interest in its finance options, including leasing, rental
and its Pay Per Wash scheme. So much so
that now, along with standard glasswashers, dishwashers and utensil washers,
the company is offering finance on bespoke packages and specialist
systems. It means that operators wanting
to spread the cost of their warewashing system, however unusual, can access the
Winterhalter finance options.
Operators can finance all
types of dishwasher plus a huge variety of accessories and options, such as
tabling. Two of the most popular
optional extras currently enquired about are Winterhalter’s dedicated racks for
washing reusable plastic cups and for washing bottles and carafes. “The interest in these two options underlines
the focus on sustainability,” says Glenn Roberts, head of sales at
Winterhalter. “We all know the environmental
problems with disposable cups, and now reusable plastic cups are a real sustainable
option for coffee shops. The problem is,
they are hard to wash because they flip over in a standard rack, plus they take
ages to dry. Our system and chemicals sort
that out. Similarly, more and more sites
are offering filtered water as an environmentally-friendly alternative to
bottled mineral water, but the reusable bottles need a special rack to clean
them.”
A standard UC undercounter
dishwasher, including two racks for washing reusable plastic cups, would cost from
an average of £5.40 per day over a 5 year period. At the end the operator can choose to buy the
machine, hand it back or extend the lease.
“This flexibility is a
key benefit of our finance schemes,” says Roberts.
There’s also considerable
interest in finance for Winterhalter Energy models, which radically reduce
running costs. “The Energy passthrough
and undercounter machines are a little more expensive compared to the standard
models, but the savings can be hugely significant,” says Roberts. “For example, our PT EnergyPlus passthrough
has multiple features that
deliver savings of up to 25% on energy, whilst reducing water consumption. It gives payback over a very short period of
time, especially given the rise in energy costs.”
Winterhalter
has seen an increase in customers asking about acquiring Energy models under Pay
Per Wash (PPW). This innovative finance
scheme means there’s no upfront cost to the operator, the machine is installed
for free and then they simply pay as they wash, buying credits via the
internet. PPW covers not just the
machine itself, but also the chemicals and service. “It’s a stress-free option with no strings
attached,” says Roberts. “If the
operator decides to buy the machine after a period of time, we’ll take into
account the amount they’ve already spent on credits. If they don’t want the machine anymore, we’ll
take it back. If they just want to carry
on using it under the PPW scheme, that’s fine too.”
As
an example, assuming 25 washes per day, a standard UC undercounter dishwasher
will typically cost around £0.47 per wash, while the Energy version would cost £0.51.
