Foodservice Equipment Marketing (FEM) has introduced the Ugolini range of frozen drink machines in the UK, offering two new models designed to meet the demands of operators seeking to diversify their beverage offerings.
The Ugolini machines come in two formats: the compact Icon 3 and the larger NG Easy models. The new models can be used to make frozen drinks, cold creams, frozen desserts and cocktails.
The Icon 3 is available in single, double and triple dispensing options, with a 2.8-litre capacity in the single-bowl version. Its compact design (180mm wide by 440mm deep and 490mm high) makes it ideal for smaller operations, while its shockproof construction and quiet operation suit busy bars. The Icon 6 model, available on request, provides a 6-litre capacity for larger quantities, ideal for making cold creams, sorbets, smoothies and frozen drinks.
For higher-volume needs, the NG Easy models come in six sizes, with capacities ranging from 6 to 30 litres. These units are designed for easy maintenance, featuring removable panels for cleaning, shockproof polycarbonate containers and a secure bowl fixing system. The smallest model in this range, the NG 6/1 Easy, has a 6-litre capacity and measures 200mm wide by 480mm deep and 620mm high.
Both the Icon and NG Easy models incorporate Ugolini's patented RecoverEnergy system, which features double-walled bowls for energy efficiency and anti-condensation.
