HO.RE.CA + LAB
At Steelform Lab, we develop highly optimised solutions by continuously upgrading our technical expertise and integrating dedicated research and development activities. We offer a turnkey design and validation service for manufacturers without in-house laboratories, delivering components tested with all major gases in compliance with international standards.
Every Steelform product originates from a process of advanced engineering research: from the selection of innovative materials and development of cutting-edge technologies, to detailed analyses aimed at solving specific design challenges. We simulate extreme conditions to test components during approval phases, ensuring mechanical integrity and full regulatory compliance.
Our lab is equipped with 2D and 3D inspection systems, with real-time data acquisition and integrated processing. This guarantees precision, reliability, and functional design to meet both the technical and aesthetic requirements of our clients.

We produce custom cooking plates and frytops for professional kitchen equipment based on client specifications, offering a wide range of configurations and surface treatments. All manufacturing is carried out in-house at our Steelform facilities, ensuring full control over production quality and standards.
Key features:
Manufactured from technical drawings supplied by the client
Carbon steel plates with polished or chrome-plated finish
Compound, duplex, or triplex plates based on thermal and structural needs
Optional machining: multiple cavity surfaces (policasse), custom perforations, drain channels
Optional surface treatments: shot blasting with steel beads, sandblasting with glass microspheres
Integrated drainage pipes available
Underside studs for temperature probe or bulb holders
Upstand assembly with robotic TIG welding
Aesthetic finishing of splashbacks
Final non-destructive testing (NDT) on all welds
Every stage of production undergoes strict quality control to guarantee safety, reliability, and long-term performance.
Bratt Pans and Cookers
We design and manufacture professional bratt pans and kettles in stainless steel, developed in co-design with the client to meet precise functional and hygiene requirements.
Technical features:
Deep-drawn tanks from 80 to 120 litres (other sizes available on request: 60, 100, 140, 200 litres)
Internal geometries with rounded corners for ease of cleaning and maximum hygiene
MIG welding for high mechanical strength and fine surface finish
Integrated central drain outlet for efficient emptying
Customisable central connection to suit application needs
All products are manufactured in food-grade stainless steel, ensuring full compliance with MOCA regulations(Materials and Objects in Contact with Food) and absolute resistance to contamination.
Components for Ovens
We specialise in the design, production, and patented development of stainless steel components for professional ovens. Our product range includes heat exchangers, finned tubes, and custom-engineered parts designed in collaboration with the client to deliver optimal thermal performance, structural integrity, and energy efficiency.
Tubular Structures
We design and manufacture tubular stainless steel frames, with particular expertise in producing components for equipment used in winemaking and food liquid processing. We work primarily with AISI 316L stainless steel, ensuring superior corrosion resistance, hygiene, and compliance with food safety regulations. Each solution is custom-developed to meet specific professional equipment needs.
Modular Shelving
We design and manufacture modular tubular shelving systems, engineered for high mechanical resistance and maximum functional flexibility. Structures are designed for fast and intuitive assembly, with modular units that can be added or removed to suit logistical or environmental requirements.
Components for Dishwashers
We engineer and produce custom stainless steel components for professional dishwashers, with a focus on optimising wash cycle efficiency and reducing water consumption. Our product range includes spray arms, heat exchangers, and water supply ducts, all developed with a strong focus on sustainability and functional innovation.
Our “Saving Water” components contribute to enhanced environmental performance of the equipment.
Components for Coffee Machines
We manufacture stainless steel components for professional coffee machines, with deep expertise in producing boilers and functional parts. Compared to traditional materials, stainless steel ensures better mechanical performance, excellent corrosion and limescale resistance, and full MOCA compliance for contact with liquids and beverages.
We use a variety of stainless steel grades based on the technical specifications provided by the client. Each product is entirely Made in Italy, with certified quality standards and full in-house process control.
Components for Gelato Machines
We develop stainless steel components for professional gelato machines, working in close cooperation with clients through a co-design process aimed at achieving optimal functionality and seamless production integration.
Thanks to our complete in-house machining capability, we manufacture a wide range of parts for automatic extraction batch freezers, including:
Ingredient feed and gelato outlet hatches
Internal agitator paddles in various configurations
Custom-made stainless steel gelato containers (carapine)
Every component is engineered to ensure hygiene, durability, and full compliance with food industry standards, backed by over 50 years of sector expertise.
