Skope Reflex

Two years of hard work and expert input from the SKOPE refrigeration team culminated at Fine Food Australia with the company’s new, innovative ReFlex 10-model series winning the show’s Best New Hospitality Equipment Product 2019 Award.

This is the first time SKOPE has won this prestigious award, but the most important aspect of this win is that it represents the culmination of more than two years of hard work and expert input from almost every quarter of the SKOPE Refrigeration family.

Never before has SKOPE released a 10-model series that contains so much innovation and represents so much value to customers in this kind of timeframe.

“ReFlex has been one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken at SKOPE, and for all the hard work and ingenuity that’s gone into it to be recognized in this way is fantastic,” Managing Director Guy Stewart says.

“ReFlex is a milestone in SKOPE’s history and a marker of what is to come. But we couldn’t achieve any of this without the team we have. The commitment and vision they have displayed in the development and delivery to market of ReFlex has been truly exceptional.

ReFlex was designed to deliver on SKOPE’s promise to the market to never lose sight of what the customer needs and values. Food-grade 304 stainless steel is combined with market-leading digital innovations that help to manage costs and protect food quality. This reflects the pain points and values of cooks and other commercial kitchen professionals managing food storage and quality issues.

“I am thrilled that our new ReFlex range was officially recognised as the best new equipment product at Fine Foods Australia,” says Keri Thomas, GM of Sales and Marketing.

“The product takes its name from our hope that it reflects what our customers have been asking us for - new innovation combined with SKOPE quality – in one incredible value range.”

“To receive the plaudits of respected industry peers, like the Food Service Consultants body (FCSI), is really encouraging. Our 40-strong product development team at SKOPE, who have been working on this project for several years, feel very proud to be recognized in this way.”

Connected Commercial Kitchens

ReFlex is the second product to leverage the power of SKOPE -connect, after the second-generation ActiveCore general display fridge which was launched at last year’s Fine Food Australia (a finalist in 2018’s FCSI Best New Hospitality Equipment Product category).

It is being followed by ProSpec, a premium range of food storage refrigeration that offers chefs all the advantages of ReFlex but with ActiveCore removable cartridges and a host of configuration options that provide unprecedented flexibility in the fit out process.

“All of these product innovations represent a trajectory for SKOPE which is seeing it lead the market towards the digitally-connected commercial kitchen which is not only cost-smart for margin-conscious hospitality operators but also friendly to the environment,” says Keri.

“The market is demanding products that are more efficient and better quality – not only because they help save on their energy bills, but because they are better for our planet. The fact that SKOPE is invested in manufacturing lean and green refrigeration is evident throughout the ReFlex product range.”
