OUR STORY

Commercial Kitchen Systems Ltd. is a Vancouver based company that was established in 2002. We are the agents for the Spectank carbon removal system. Over the years we have steadily expanded our operations and now count many of the finest commercial kitchens, restaurants, bakeries and hotels among our clients.

The Spectank system was developed by a chemist who found the best solution to remove the problem of baked on carbon that plagues commercial kitchens everywhere. We use an equipment-friendly formulated detergent called Carbsolve in a special heated soak tank, called the Spectank.

The Spectank carbon removal system is marketed worldwide and is used by busy kitchen staff where a clean kitchen is a priority.

Our customers are always amazed at the results achieved, with the following additional benefits:

• No expensive equipment purchase is needed - the Spectank is rented monthly and includes the detergent and a warranty. If there's an equipment problem we fix it.
• Less labour is required to maintain clean kitchen equipment.
• Cost savings due to having a more efficient kitchen.
• Elimination of hazardous, caustic chemicals.
• No need to replace expensive equipment damaged by scouring or carbon build up.
• The Spectank operates above 80 degrees Centigrade so it sterilizes equipment as it cleans.

The Spectank System - How it works

The Spectank system is comprised of a specially designed heated stainless steel soak tank. The Spectank is filled with water and a specially formulated detergent called Carbsolve. The solution is non-toxic, non-corrosive, environmentally and user friendly biodegradable detergent.

The solution is heated to approximately 85°C and soaked items will have all fat, grease and carbon deposits removed without causing any damage to the parent metal.

A Spectank System will accommodate the vast majority of items suffering from fat, grease and oil build up. One measured application of Carbsolve dissolved in approximately 90 litres of water (Mini-Tank) and heated to the operating temperature of approximately 85°C, will clean continuously for 30 days.

Previous methods for cleaning equipment included acid baths, caustic soda baths (damaging aluminum), sand blasting (damaging to metal) or soaking for hours in boiling water and chipping away manually for days repeating the same operation. These "old fashioned" methods are costly, ineffective and dangerous.

With Spectank and Carbsolve, a simple overnight soak removes everything with the exception of really crusty carbon build-up, which could require a 24 hour soak or a re-soak at a later stage.
