Apuro CU488-A Freestanding 4 Zone Induction Hob

The Apuro CU488-A brings the energy-saving efficiency of induction cooking to professional kitchens, featuring four powerful 3.5 kW cooking zones on a heavy-duty stainless steel freestanding unit. Induction technology transfers energy directly into compatible cookware rather than radiating heat into the surrounding environment, making it up to 70% more efficient than gas alternatives while delivering faster, more responsive cooking across a wide variety of dishes.

Mounted on an open base fitted with castors, the unit is straightforward to reposition as your kitchen layout demands, while the storage space beneath adds practical utility. The toughened ceramic glass surface, pan detection with automatic shut-off, and 11 adjustable power levels per zone give kitchen teams precise control and a safer cooking environment. Please note that a qualified technician is required to set up this unit.
