IMC SP12 Potato Peeler with Low Pedestal

The IMC SP12 is a floor-standing electric potato peeler designed for commercial kitchens that need consistent, reliable vegetable preparation without the footprint or throughput demands of a full-scale production machine. Mounted on a low-height pedestal, it discharges at a practical working height and is built around a stainless steel and cast alloy construction that holds up well in a busy prep environment.

In service, the SP12 handles batches efficiently, making it well suited to kitchens where potato prep runs in stages rather than in continuous bulk cycles. The carborundum liner abrades and peels evenly, and the reversible, rust-proof liners and peeling plate extend the working life of the machine without requiring specialist maintenance. The robust stainless steel lid with secure push-fit keeps the process contained and the working area cleaner during operation.

From an operational standpoint, the practical benefits include:

• Consistent batch peeling that reduces hand-prep time during mise en place
• Reversible liners that extend consumable life and reduce replacement frequency
• Stainless steel and cast alloy construction suited to daily commercial use
• WRAS-approved Class A air-break fitting, meeting current UK water regulations
• Low pedestal discharge height that works well in compact or lower-worktop prep areas

Installation requires a water supply and drain connection alongside an electrical supply. The WRAS-approved air-break means the machine meets UK water regulations without additional modification. The floor-mounted pedestal keeps the unit stable, though the discharge height and overall dimensions should be checked against your prep area layout before ordering.

The SP12 is most suitable for smaller operations — cafés, pub kitchens, school catering facilities, and smaller restaurant kitchens — where potato preparation is a daily task but volumes don't justify a larger continuous-feed machine. For higher-volume sites processing significant quantities in a single shift, a heavier-duty model with greater batch capacity may be worth considering.

If you're unsure whether the SP12 matches your prep volumes or want to talk through installation requirements, our team is happy to help you work it out before you commit.
