Product Description
The IMC SP25 is a floor-standing electric potato peeler built for commercial use. Mounted on a low pedestal, it peels in batch loads and is designed to handle the consistent daily volume that smaller restaurants, pub kitchens, care homes, and school catering operations typically produce. The low pedestal positions the discharge point at a practical working height, which suits operations where produce is emptied directly into prep containers or sinks at bench level.
In a working kitchen environment, the SP25 holds up well under repeated daily use. The carborundum liner and reversible rust-proof peeling plate are built to withstand the rough handling that commercial veg prep involves, and the stainless steel lid with secure push-fit keeps mess contained during the peeling cycle. Construction is a combination of stainless steel and cast alloy — materials that clean down quickly and resist the wear that comes with high-frequency kitchen use.
From an operational standpoint, the SP25 offers a number of practical advantages:
- Carborundum liner doubles as a fill guide, supporting consistent batch loading
- Reversible rust-proof peeling plates extend service life and keep consumable costs down
- WRAS-approved Class A air-break ensures compliance with UK water regulations without additional fittings
- Stainless steel and cast alloy construction is straightforward to clean after service
- Low pedestal discharge height aligns well with bench-height prep containers
Installation requires a suitable electrical supply and a cold water connection. The floor-standing base needs a stable, level floor position with adequate drainage nearby, as water is used throughout the peeling cycle. It is worth factoring in clear access around the unit for cleaning and for reversing the liner plates when planning placement.
The SP25 is well suited to smaller and medium-volume operations where daily peeling loads are steady but do not justify a larger machine. For higher-volume sites — hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, or central production units peeling in significantly greater quantities — a heavier-duty machine with greater batch capacity is likely a better fit. If you are weighing up capacity options, we are happy to talk through the right choice for your operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the SP25 is well suited to pub kitchens and similar smaller to medium-volume operations with consistent daily peeling requirements. It is designed for regular commercial use rather than occasional light-duty work, so it holds up well in that kind of environment. If your volumes are significantly higher — for example, a large hotel kitchen or a contract catering operation — it would be worth discussing whether a higher-capacity machine is a better match.
- The SP25 requires a suitable electrical supply and a cold water connection. It includes a WRAS-approved Class A air-break, which means it meets UK water regulations without needing additional backflow prevention fittings. The unit also needs to be positioned on a stable, level floor with drainage nearby, as water is used during the peeling cycle.
- The low pedestal brings the discharge door to a lower working height, which suits kitchens where produce is emptied directly into containers or prep areas at bench height. If your workflow involves collecting peeled product at a different height — for example, into a raised sink or a tall bin — a different pedestal height may work better. It is worth thinking through how the discharge point fits your actual prep layout before ordering.
