What our customers are saying
Richard Burt, Executive Chef and Partner - Fellini Restaurant, Gold Coast
"In today's kitchen the HUMITECH Filter is not a luxury. It's a necessity if you care about food and want to save on energy. The filters pay for themselves many fold over. I recommend the filters to anyone dealing with food."
Eric Chiam, Chef of Rosette Restaurant,
Manager of Food Preparation (Operations), College of Culinary Arts @ Shatec - Singapore
"All my fridges and walk-in chillers are colder and more consistent in temperature. The odours have been reduced. Most importantly, the perishable products have prolonged their shelf-life longer than expected. As a Chef I strongly recommend these products to any food establishment."
Neil Meyers, Operations Director - Arden Group
"Gelson's Markets installed the HUMITECH filters in their walk-in refrigerator and our study showed that the compressors work an average of 1000 minutes less per week. The temperatures of the refrigerators were reduced by 2-4 degrees, resulting in energy cost savings of 1.5-2 percent degree."
Ron Bartow - Safeway Food Stores
"There is a 50 percent longer life on my salad bar ingredients, no ice buildup on the seafood cooler, the fish looks better, and there is a 50 percent longer life on fresh cut flowers..."
Herbert Tossmann, Pastry Chef - Sea World, Gold Coast
"Since the system has been installed, the water drops have disappeared, chocolate coated items have dry surfaces and there is no moisture on our pastries, therefore the pastries are staying crisper. Our cold-rooms feel colder, improving on the quality and shelf-life of all other products."
Chris Hansen, Executive Chef - Blue Train Restaurant, Southbank - Melbourne
"There is no question that the restaurant is better off with having the Humitech filters in our cool rooms, than not having them there."
Danny Loone, Chief Engineer - Palazzo Versace, Gold Coast, World's first 6 star Hotel
"I am pleased to report that our tests proved that the Humitech Systems tested in our pastry and seafood walk-in cold rooms: reduced odours and hence air-borne bacteria; reduced moisture; added quality by reducing sweating on pastries, berries and chocolate; lowered the ambient temperature of the cold rooms. Indications are that it will increase the life of our compressors. It is logical that energy use will decrease. The Filters reduce fridge maintenance and have the potential of increasing the food life in the event of a power failure."
Tony Fletcher, 5th Generation Butcher, Nerang Village Meats
"The results are amazing, the meat lasts longer, there is no cracking or discolouring, less trim loss and the compressor runs less. I am very impressed with the results and so is my refrigeration mechanic. I recommend these filters to anyone dealing with food."
Carol Streeter, Manager, FoodWorks Sussex, NSW
"Sceptical at first, we have now been using the HUMITECH Filters for almost a year and I must say that it really does work!. We are using the filters in our Meat/Deli cold room and we have noticed the following benefits:
- - elimination of condensation and free moisture build-up inside the cold room
- - there is no ice build-up on the evaporator unit
- - significant drop in temperature
- - total elimination of food odours
- - improved refrigeration efficiency and reduction of defrost cycles
- - Increased shelf-life of cold stored products
We are very satisfied with the overall service provided by HUMITECH and have no hesitation recommending the filters to other grocers"
Greg Peckowski, Executive Chef, Spotless Catering Services - Christchurch, New Zealand
"Before I came to New Zealand I spent five years as executive chef at the Sheraton Hotel in Tel Aviv and there I worked with these filters for three and a half years and have had really good experiences with them. I have seen just how much they can improve my kitchen and my menus. Using the HUMITECH filters extends the shelf- life of all our perishable produce. Vegetables used to last two or three days when they are nice and fresh, now they last more than a week and that down to the huge difference in production. An executive chef is supposed to ultimately look after the kitchen but the proper job is cooking and improving the dishes and menus. With the filters you have more time to spend in the kitchen and do that. In my kitchen HUMITECH is a must."
Daniel May, Owner Cafe Le Net - Brisbane
"We have been using the 'FoodSoFresh' Filters from HUMITECH in our cafe for 3 months now and are amazed with the results. The Filters considerably increase the shelf-life and keeps food fresher, longer. We have noted a total elimination of odours and the temperatures are lower and don't fluctuate. There is a significant reduction in moisture in our fridges, which makes a huge difference to the food quality and makes it easier on fridge motors. We could not be happier with the product and would recommend to anyone to have a go and see the results yourself."
Gunaselan Raju, Food Service Manager, Country Foods, catering division of Singapore Airlines
"With the use of the filters in one of our vegetable chillers, the odour has been removed and the floor is kept dry at all times. The HUMITECH filters also contribute to energy savings. This product stands out as an exceptional solution and we will strongly recommend it for the chillers."
Paul Riley, Head Chef, Indooroopilly Golf Club - Brisbane
"I have found the HUMITECH filters an invaluable resource in my cool rooms. Food is staying fresher longer, condensation has minimized and odours reduced. My cool rooms are working more efficiently and at more constant temperatures. I have noticed a decrease in sweating of chocolate and can store different food types without having to worry about the odours spoiling the flavours and nature of the foods. I have no hesitation recommending HUMITECH to any business."
Claire Dignan, Manager, Short Black Cafe - Stafford
"In the past my cake fridge sat at a temperature of approximately 7 degrees Celsius. Since the implementation HUMITECH I am delighted to inform that my cake fridge now sits as low as 3.8 degrees. I no longer have problems with my cakes sweating & my sponges are staying moist even after a few days in the fridge. It is no longer necessary for us to wrap our dense cake products of a night time, thus reducing plastic usage and the chance of spoiling cake appearances."
John Davis, Manager, Byrnes Wholesale Meats, Cairns
"Our meat is fresher, longer and we have halved the weight-loss. HUMITECH is so simple, yet so effective."
Anthony Ealy, Head Chef - "The Clarence", one of Dublin's finest Hotels
"There is no doubt the filters are a great job and are making a big difference in our fridges."
Rick Berry, Manager, FoodWorks Paradise Point, QLD
"One of the most visual and immediately noticeable effects in the fact that our dairy products have no condensation on the packaging, the milk cartons/bottles are dry and much "cleaner" and presentable to our customers. We are using the filters in our fresh produce/dairy cool room and I have noticed a very significant reduction of condensation and free moisture build-up inside the cold room; the temperature has dropped and does not fluctuate any more; there is no food odours; the produce is fresher, has a prolonged shelf-life and we are able to display and provide top quality produce to our customers; we have definitely less trim-loss and F&V wastage. We are very satisfied with the service provided by HUMITECH and would highly recommend it to any other grocers."
Derek Creagh, Head Chef - Dean's Restaurant Belfast
"The fall in temperature together with the produce remaining at its best longer, makes Humitech filters a very cool addition to my walk-in fridge."
Executive Chef Ed Clooney - "Merrion Hotel", the Luxury Five Star Hotel in Dublin
"The first thing I noticed was a drop in temperature together with a shorter defrost period. Our fridges are now a much better environment for food storage. The facilities manager is also very happy with the immediate and long-term energy savings."
Head Chef Fred - Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud, one of Ireland's leading restaurants
"We have noticed a huge difference since the Humitech filters were installed especially in the raw meat fridge where humidity was a problem. It is now Perfect."
Jack Smith, Executive Chef - M Crowd Restaurant Group
"I am the Executive Chef for the M Crowd Restaurant Group and recently we signed a national account agreement with Humitech to install their filters in all 23 locations. I wanted to thank Humitech for providing my restaurant with a fantastic product and service. The installation of the refrigeration filtration system has saved us money and provided us with fresher, longer lasting foods."
Martin Hughes, Head Chef - McGeowns Restaurant of Glenavy
"I have to say I was very sceptical at first but I took the filters on a trial period anyway. I cannot believe how well they work. The fridge is cooler, there are no noticeable smells now and the perishables are definitely lasting longer."
Sean Mc Cann, Head Chef - Shanks Restaurant, Bangor
"Within 48Hrs the difference the filters made in our walk-in fridge was remarkable! The Humitech Filters, will now be an essential piece of kitchen equipment."

Dean Butler, Head Chef - Malone Lodge Hotel Belfast
"There is no doubt that my walk-in is definitely a lot cooler. I have noticed all the produce especially my vegetables and herbs are lasting so much longer."
Lawrence Johnson, Owner - Outback Steakhouse, Dallas
"The cooler became more efficient. The initial temperature on the prime rib was 3 to 4 degrees lower than before. Overall, I feel this system has been a great advantage in maintaining freshness, temperature of products, cost savings on utility invoices, and prolonging the life of the walk-in compressors."
Pascal Gould, Executive Chef - Caesar's Palace, Las Vegas
"I was very surprised with the result after the HUMITECH filters were put in. Everything was much better; the cooler was much cooler and dryer. Everything would last much longer in my refrigerator."
Tom Bernstein, Executive Chef - TGI Friday's
"Humitech has established an odour free, fresh smell throughout my entire cooler system. I would recommend this service to everyone in the food industry. I truly believe in the product and will continue to use it regularly."
Neil Meyers, Operations Director - Arden Group
"Gelson's Markets installed the Humitech filters in their walk-in refrigerator and our study showed that the compressors work an average of 1000 minutes less per week. The temperatures of the refrigerators were reduced by 2-4 degrees, resulting in energy cost savings of 1.5-2 percent degree."
Pascal Lallemand, Executive Chef - Intercontinental Hotels & Resorts
"My kitchen staff told me that my cooler has no smell and I have noticed my lettuce and fruit are crisper down the middle. I am actually saving money in my kitchen because I am not throwing away as much food as before."
Newland Food Company Executives comment HUMITECH:
Roy Mato, QA Manager
"Odours and bacteria have been substantially reduced. Free moisture does not form on the chiller's ceiling, eliminating mould and bacterial growth risks."
Cameron Johnston, Production Manger
"We have been able to increase our production output and have minimized product weight-loss - and we are saving 20% of our refrigeration's energy consumption. The equipment functions better, with less stress and tests have shown that we are now maintaining optimal meat storage conditions."
Mark Dale, General Manager
"We have invested in HUMITECH to ensure that we always provide our customers with the highest quality products. Our entire team is impressed with the results so much, that we have included the filters into the design of our new post-cook chiller. The benefits of HUMITECH by far supersede the monthly service costs, which are less than 1 cent per kilogram of goods produced. HUMITECH have proven that their refrigeration expertise and filters can reduce costs and increase profits."
