In an era where environmental awareness is increasingly important, Rhea builds coffee machines with technologies that reduce environmental impact while offering high customisation and top-quality coffee.


As one of the largest producers of coffee break machines, Rhea will be present at Vendex North (Booth 53-54-55), a prestigious vending industry event for the UK and Northern European markets. The event will be held at the Centenary Pavilion in Leeds on 6 November, providing Rhea the opportunity to showcase its range of solutions aimed at the HoReCa and vending sectors.


Rhea's tabletop and free-standing machines, known for their innovation, personalisation, sustainability and signature Made in Italy design, are tailored to elevate the hospitality experience. They offer a wide variety of coffee options and milk-based coffee beverages to suit diverse consumers preferences, including those who are lactose intolerant or follow a vegan diet.

  

Designed with sustainability at the forefront, Rhea's machines are equipped with the patented Varitherm induction technology for water heating, which ensures significant energy savings. These machines are the ideal choice for those looking to combine premium coffee quality with a commitment to environmental responsibility.


One of the key innovations Rhea will bring to Vendex North is the integration of fresh milk into its machines, catering to the growing demand for coffee beverages made with natural, high-quality ingredients. Today's consumers are more discerning about the milk in their drinks; whether it's a creamy cappuccino or a smooth latte macchiato, the freshness of the milk is crucial. Rhea ensures this with its Fresh Milk (and plant-based milk) machine.


The Rhea Fresh Milk Machine rhMM2.v+ features an efficient cooling system and uses Varitherm induction technology for indirect milk heating. This process prevents dilution and preserves the highest quality in every cup. This integrated design also optimises energy use, as the steam needed for heating is generated by the same heat source used for preparing the coffee. Moreover, Rhea has developed the rhFS2 free-standing machine, which can offer fresh milk drinks as well and features a high and wide cup station for larger coffee quantities, making it particularly well-suited for the UK market.


Among the solutions Rhea will present at the fair there is the rhTT1, including the version equipped with a 3-kg visible hopper, which represents the perfect blend of design and ergonomics. These machines are designed to seamlessly fit into any environment while delivering a unique coffee experience. The Varitherm technology also allows for precise water temperature adjustments according to the specific recipe. The rhTT1 models boast a 7” or 10" touchscreen, enabling customisable, intuitive interfaces that double as an effective infotainment source.


Steve Rossington from Rhea UK said: "We’re excited to participate in Vendex North and to showcase solutions that meet the expectations of increasingly quality- and sustainability-conscious consumers. Thanks to our design expertise and deep knowledge of Italian coffee culture, we are able to strike a balance between the Italian coffee tradition and the specific demands of the Northern European market, offering bespoke experiences for every customer."


With a focus on innovation, sustainability, and delivering premium coffee experiences, Rhea is set to leave a lasting impression at Vendex North, continuing to push the boundaries of the coffee break industry.
