Expert Review and  Insights

The Bourgeat P167 is a prime example of function-first design. It's not flashy, but it’s incredibly well-made. The fully welded frame is the standout feature, offering the kind of sturdiness you just don't get from bolt-together models. It’s a solid, dependable piece of kit built for the realities of a high-turnover environment where equipment simply has to work.

  • Top-Tier Stability: The welded frame is rock-solid, making it far safer and  more durable than alternatives.
  • Fixed Shelf Height: The 108mm gap is standard but doesn't offer flexibility for unusually deep trays.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Nottingham Arena needed to improve the speed of its catering clean-up operation in its corporate hospitality suites between event intervals. Their existing trolleys were inefficient and  couldn't handle the volume, causing delays and  frustration for staff.

"We can now clear an entire 150-person suite in two trips. The Bourgeat trolley is incredibly sturdy and  glides through the corridors, even when fully loaded. It has genuinely improved our operational flow during high-pressure events."

Robert Green – Hospitality Manager

The upgrade resulted in a 35% reduction in suite turnaround time, allowing staff to reset for the next service more effectively and  improving the overall guest experience.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • The trolley arrives fully assembled thanks to its welded construction – no tools needed!
  • Before first use, give all surfaces a thorough wipe-down with a food-safe sanitiser.
  • Check that all four castors swivel freely and  are clear of any packaging debris.
  • Plan your clearing routes to ensure doorways and  corridors are wide enough for easy passage.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean the stainless steel frame and  polypropylene supports daily with a soft cloth and  mild detergent.
  • Regularly inspect the wheels and  axles, removing any hair, dirt, or debris that could hinder movement.
  • Wipe up spills immediately to maintain hygiene and  prevent slip hazards.
  • Periodically check the tray supports to ensure they are secure and  free from damage.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Clearing Trolley

Need help choosing the best clearing trolley for your business? Here are the key things to consider.

Capacity & Size

Estimate your peak number of covers and  choose a trolley that can handle the volume without constant trips. Always measure your doorways and  storage areas first!

Construction Quality

A fully welded frame offers superior strength and  longevity compared to a bolt-together model, which can loosen over time. It's a crucial feature for heavy-duty use.

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the industry standard for hygiene, durability, and  ease of cleaning. Look for extras like plastic supports to reduce noise and  wear.

Tray Compatibility

Check the trolley's maximum supported tray size (e.g., 530x370mm for this model) and  the gap between shelves to ensure your existing trays will fit perfectly.

Manoeuvrability

Good quality, smooth-swivelling castors are non-negotiable. They make navigating a busy floor with a heavy load safer and  much less effort for your staff.

Why Polypropylene Supports Make a Real Difference

Ever wondered why some trolleys rattle and  clatter loudly while others glide by quietly? The secret is often in the small details, like the polypropylene tray supports on this Bourgeat P167. While most trolleys use all-metal guides, Bourgeat has opted for this durable polymer for two key reasons.

First, it acts as a natural sound dampener. Think of it like putting felt pads on a chair leg; the polypropylene absorbs the vibration and  impact of trays being loaded, drastically reducing noise in your dining hall or corridors. Second, it's kinder to your equipment. The slightly softer material prevents the metal-on-metal scraping that can scratch and  damage your expensive food trays over time, extending their lifespan. It's a small feature that delivers big benefits in creating a more pleasant atmosphere and  protecting your investment.

Who Should Buy This?

  • School & University Canteens: Effortlessly handles the intense lunchtime rush, keeping dining halls clear and  ready for the next wave of students.
  • Large Hotels & Conference Venues: Ideal for clearing breakfast service, event rooms, or banquet halls quickly and  professionally.
  • Hospitals & Care Homes: Provides a robust and  hygienic solution for meal service and  clearing across multiple wards and  dining areas.
  • High-Volume Restaurants & Buffets: Keeps front-of-house tidy and  supports kitchen staff by enabling fast, large-scale clearing of tables.
