CAD blocks updated for wok cookers

posted in: Help guides, News |

CAD blocks (DXF AutoCAD 2010) for our CEFT wok range have been updated and now include front and side elevations as well as plan view. These updated drawings have been integrated into our brochures too.

Far East wok cookers are specified by leading consultants, designers, architects and chefs for their blend of reliability, performance and aftersales support; now it’s even easier to insert our specialist Oriental catering equipment into your CAD drawings and kitchen designs.

Nostalgia

posted in: News |

Whilst clearing out an office cupboard we found this gem from 1989! Sometimes we forget just how long Far East has been trading (since 1983!), and also the hair cuts sported by directors at the time! Somehow these got transported from our old Carrwood Road factory (remember there?) to our present Coney Green Farm offices (by which point they were already around 15 years old). The image below is the back cover of the same brochure, with our current Managing Director seen in the top left!

It’s not us!

posted in: News |

We’ve received several phone calls complaining about duct and fan cleaning carried out by the below advert. We are not connected to this advert in any way, we do not know who they are, they are just trying to leverage the good reputation of the Far East name, and we are unable to help you if you have any problems with this firm.

BS4142 acoustic survey and report

posted in: Completed project |

Today we have acoustic engineers in Shropshire undertaking a BS4142 sound survey for existing background noise levels – we finally have a break in the weather so it’s not too wet, cold or windy to get accurate measurements. A full BS4142 report is sometimes required by planning and environmental health officers to satisfy A3/A5 planning conditions for restaurants and takeaways. The completed BS4142 report will include sound data of our proposed extract system and how it will impact nearby dwellings compared to existing sound levels, and is supplemental to our core mechanical vent/extract report.

You can find our more about our planning consultancy services at https://www.fareastwok.com/portfolio/kitchen-layout-and-planning-consent-consultancy/https://www.fareastwok.com/portfolio/kitchen-layout-and-planning-consent-consultancy/
