The Palatable Partnership

In our experience, manufacturing environments are generally very functional, especially in the food and drink world, where there are strict health and safety procedures in place. However, the Border’s team understood the importance of also creating an inspiring working environment and was keen to deliver the same refreshment experience that other modern workplaces enjoy.

We were delighted to be invited on site to explore the new canteen and office set up. It’s not uncommon that kitchen wall cabinets are often too low to fit most commercial coffee machines underneath. Whilst we have smaller machines in our range that fit neatly under wall cabinets, on this occasion Border required something with a higher drinks capacity and therefore we needed to look at a freestanding tea/coffee point for this project.

As such we delivered two bespoke, custom-built, Border-branded refreshment stations that were both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Each station comprises of a cabinet unit with integrated bin for low mess, a Liquidline Q3 coffee machine, plus storage space for ancillaries.

The Liquidline Q3 bean to cup machine is a low maintenance coffee solution for high footfall environments. Freshly ground coffee is precisely brewed to extract the very best of the bean, whilst the powdered milk system provides fluffy milk foam but without the added cleaning required of a fresh milk machine. The Liquidline Q3 serves up to 200 cups per day, thanks to its dual boiler, and offers 10 different drinks options including hot chocolate and water for tea.

We continue to support Border by supplying everything they need to serve great quality refreshments, including our bestselling Café Bonté Platino beans, rich hot chocolate, milk topping, sustainable Clipper Tea and more.

With their refreshments provision all taken care of, and their team fuelled with delicious coffee, Borders can concentrate on the important job at hand – creating fantastic biscuits for the rest of us to enjoy!
