Winterhalter PT Series Passthrough Dishwasher — Dishwashing commercial kitchen equipment
Dishwashing

Winterhalter PT Series Passthrough Dishwasher

The Winterhalter PT Series passthrough (hood-type) dishwasher is a true workhorse for high-volume kitchens. Dirty racks are loaded onto the inlet table, the hood lowers, and the wash cycle runs — clean ware emerges on the other side in a smooth, linear flow at a comfortable working height. Designed for the highest demands and streamlined for maximum economy, it handles dishes, cutlery, trays, utensils and glasses with first-class, certified cleanliness. Available in two machine sizes — the compact PT-M (500x500 mm rack) and the extra-wide PT-L (500x600 mm rack). Pricing on request.

It's not just holding — it's a revolution in food sustainability that transforms how kitchens manage prep, service, and waste.

Why We're Different

Equipment is the tool.
Food is the purpose.

We help food businesses choose equipment that makes sense for what they actually produce, how they operate, and where they want to go.

Application

It's not what you buy. It's what you can do.

Ingredients
01

Ingredients

Fresh, prepped and ready — the start of every service.

Preparation
02

Preparation

The right tools make prep faster, safer and more consistent.

The Result
03

The Result

Equipment exists to put food on the plate — beautifully.

Refrigeration

Cold storage that never sleeps.

Commercial refrigeration runs 24/7 — a failure can mean thousands of rands of spoiled stock. We work with a number of leading, reputable suppliers to provide upright fridges, undercounter units, prep counters, bottle coolers and freezers, all backed by local service support.
