The team at GN Espace are thrilled to have received a DAME Design Award Nomination for our innovative ECO Door in the Comfort & Entertainment Afloat Category.
The ECO Door fits to the inside of the glass oven door from the GN Espace electric range to keep heat in so that food cooked on the hob will keep on slow cooking without the oven even being turned on, working on the principles of a traditional hay oven.
“Our product development is founded on energy efficiency so it’s very rewarding that our energy-saving oven door has been recognised by this prestigious METSTRADE Award scheme,” comments Ralph Olingschlaeger of GN Espace. “We are really proud of our development of the ECO Door.”
The METSTRADE exhibition will show case the GN Espace ECO Door along with the other nominated products in a dedicated display at RAI Amsterdam,. Winners will be announced as the show opens on 19 November so we have our fingers firmly crossed.
Specialist galley equipment manufacturer GN Espace developed the ECO Door to be compatible with all GN Espace’s marine electric oven models, including the GN Espace OceanChef and GN Espace Levante electric ovens along with the brand new Gourmet and Explorer ranges.
Glass oven doors can’t be as well insulated as the other surfaces inside an oven but are popular as they enable the cooking in progress to be viewed. By sealing off this one source of heat loss with the ECO Door the ‘hot box’ is created and the latent heat generated by the hot pot or casserole is sealed in, so it can simmer away for three hours or more without consuming any additional energy. The ECO Door can be swopped in and out of the oven as required. Made of stainless steel with an insulated chamber filled with rockwool insulation, it weights just 1.2kg, is fully recyclable and will last the life of the oven.
Meals can be prepared before setting out on the water for the day – then can just be left to slow-cook and enjoyed piping hot later in the day.
The price of the ECO Door starts at £150 inc VAT. See further information about the accessory here.
