Delivery Information
Price Match
The Sammic EC-30 is a countertop UV knife steriliser designed to support HACCP food safety requirements in commercial kitchen environments. It uses ultraviolet light to sterilise stored knives without chemicals or heat, providing a practical, repeatable method of maintaining blade hygiene between uses and across shifts.
In a working kitchen, knife hygiene can easily become inconsistent — particularly where multiple chefs share blades across split shifts or service periods. The EC-30 addresses this by combining storage and sterilisation in a single unit. Knives go in clean and dry, the built-in timer manages the cycle without supervision, and the process runs without adding steps to an already pressured workflow. Over time, that consistency matters for both compliance records and day-to-day food safety practice.
Practical advantages for kitchen teams include:
- Chemical-free UV sterilisation that protects blade condition over time
- Non-magnetic knife holder that avoids edge damage during storage
- Built-in timer manages sterilisation cycles without staff supervision
- Stainless steel construction suited to the cleaning demands of a commercial environment
- Low power consumption, keeping running costs modest against regular use
Installation is straightforward — the EC-30 requires only a standard mains socket and modest counter or shelf space, with no water or drainage connections needed. One practical point worth noting: UV sterilisation acts on exposed surfaces only. Knives must be clean and fully dry before loading for the process to be effective. This is not a substitute for washing — it is a hygiene stage that follows it.
The EC-30 is well suited to smaller operations where a single set of knives needs to be kept in hygienic rotation — cafés, pub kitchens, care home catering, hotel restaurants, and similar environments. Larger brigade kitchens managing higher knife counts across multiple sections may find a higher-capacity model better matched to their volume.
If you would like to talk through whether the EC-30 fits your kitchen's hygiene setup, our team is happy to help you work it through.
Frequently asked questions
Does UV sterilisation work on its own, or do knives still need washing first?
UV sterilisation works on exposed surfaces only, so knives must be thoroughly washed and fully dried before loading into the EC-30. The unit is a hygiene stage that follows washing, not a replacement for it — this is an important point for HACCP documentation and staff training.
Is the EC-30 suitable for a kitchen where several chefs share knives across split shifts?
Yes, this is one of the more common use cases. The EC-30 gives teams a consistent, repeatable hygiene step between users without relying on individuals to follow the same process every time. For kitchens running higher knife counts across multiple sections, a higher-capacity model may be worth considering instead.
What are the installation requirements for the EC-30?
The EC-30 is a countertop unit that requires only a standard mains socket — there are no water, drainage, or ventilation connections needed. It needs modest counter or shelf space and can be positioned wherever it best fits the prep workflow.
