Rational wins IFSA Award for environmental sustainability
Abstract
Rational, the manufacturer of thermal cooking systems, has received the IFSA Environmental Sustainability / Energy Efficiency Innovation in Heavy Catering Equipment accolade for its iHexagon cooking system at this year’s CATEX show in Dublin.

Organised by the Irish Foodservice Suppliers Alliance (IFSA), the awards recognise products and services that demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and innovation. Categories include carbon emissions reduction, food waste minimisation, elimination of single-use plastics and water conservation.

Rational says that by integrating and intelligently adapting microwave technology alongside steam and hot air, the iHexagon ensures efficient energy use across all rack levels in a 6-1/1 cooking system—an industry first.

Theo Bostock, iHexagon business development manager of Rational UK, said: “We are delighted to receive this prestigious award, which highlights our ongoing commitment to sustainability and innovation. The iHexagon represents a significant step forward in commercial kitchen efficiency, while maintaining exceptional cooking performance.”
