CONNECT - The ideal buffet solution when space is limited

The CONNECT buffet system from FRILICH helps arrange cereals, milk, juices, jam and more – Elegant, space-saving and with a lot of verve for breakfast buffets.

The key to CONNECT is the practical, heavy base, which gives strength and stability to the buffet and enables you to offer a variety of options. Thanks to a clever indentation in the sides, bases can easily be fitted together and set up in attractive rows or semi-circles to save space.

Cereal is dispensed from the attractive CONNECT Hopper, designed like the pipes of an organ and available in three sizes, (2.5 litre, 3.5 litre and 4.5 litre), using a stylish rotating handle. The chute helps ensure cereal ends up in the guest’s bowl, rather than on the table.

The CONNECT base can also be used for the CONNECT Goblet for particularly voluminous or sugar-coated cereals. Guests then serves themselves using a serving spoon. Alternatively, Muesli flutes, particularly useful for pouring very finely ground cereals such as oat flakes, will also fit in the CONNECT base.

In addition to the various cereal applications, FRILICH also offers 3 and 4 litre juice dispensers, as part of the CONNECT buffet system, since they fit the CONNECT bases as well. For a larger range of juices, the dispensers can be supplemented with glass or plastic carafes, which also fit in the CONNECT bases. Porcelain carafes for milk and jam jars in plastic or porcelain complete the CONNECT range of applications.
