Beyond Industrial
While primarily known for its Dura® line of industrial products, AFC also operates a Food Products Group. This business segment, DuraChef®, partners with major quick service restaurants such as Subway®, Dunkin®, Burger King®, and Starbucks® to provide consistent consumer meals. DuraChef® also carries a line of cooking and baking products that outlast and outperform traditional kitchen wares.
AFC understands its obligation as a manufacturer to encourage sustainable practices. This can be found in AFC Renewables, which developed the revolutionary process of No Waste Technology ™: the ability to fully recycle paper-based laminate products. Another environmentally friendly product, Chef Pack®, was designed with food safety in mind. This 100% biodegradable packaging remains sealed from factory to consumer, allowing moisture to escape during cooking while preventing air from entering. It is the ultimate oven within an oven, and provides a reliable option for those with food sensitivities.
