Cleaning robots to save restaurants from creating more waste
Dishcraft Robotics has a simple pitch to corporate kitchens and restaurants that could potentially save tons of single use plastic, noncompostable takeout containers, dishware and cutlery from ending up in landfills.
Use its cleaning service that will drop off all the clean, reusable dishware and cutlery a restaurant or corporate kitchen could possibly need in the morning and pick up all the dirty dishes, cups and silverware that the foodservice location uses throughout the day.
“In this model we take care of the collection and cleaning of dishes,” said Linda Pouliot, the company’s founder and chief executive officer.
That’s the offer. Behind the scenes the company will use its complement of robots that can clean up to 10,000 pieces of dishware or cutlery to quickly and efficiently clean up the mess.
The restaurants, Pouliot says, have more inventory than they could possibly need — even as Dishcraft only runs one drop-off and pickup service throughout the day at corporate offices.
