10 YEARS OF THE M-IQ FLIGHT-TYPE DISHWASHER
This year , MEIKO celebrates a decade of its bestselling flighttype dishwasher , the M-iQ . The dishwashers use an intelligent air management system to retain heated air , redirecting it within the machine to lower energy costs . Self-cleaning active filters wash the water and remove soils at various stages to purify wash water , reducing detergent consumption , while wash arms and dynamics designed for exacting coverage of wares reduce water use . The machines also have user-friendly glass multilingual touchscreen displays . An independent medical device-testing laboratory certified that the dishwashers inactivate COVID-19 in a single wash cycle .
“ The results we ’ ve seen since installing the M-iQ have been simply incredible ,” said Larry Green of PEAK Event Services , which purchased the first M-iQ sold in the United States . “ In our first year , we saved over US $ 30,000 on the cost of supplies and almost US $ 75,0000 in payroll costs .”
MEIKO says it has saved its customers millions over the past decade .
