BETTAquip has recently completed the installation of a new kitchen and servery for St Michael’s College in Llandaff, Cardiff whose primary aim is to train ordained and public ministers.
The college not only provides the resident students with breakfast, lunch and dinner, but also offers an excellent residential conference facility outside of the college term time. Their catering offers a wide range of options from working breakfasts and finger buffets to formal dinning.

Refurbishing the kitchen was necessary in order to continue to meet the high standards set for providing quality locally produced fresh food. The kitchen also needed to be able cope with the production of a wide range of ethnic and medically approved products, including Halal meat and Kosher meals.
The contract that BETTAquip won was to supply of a completely new suite of cooking equipment including an Electrolux “Air-O-Steam” Gas Combination Oven.
In order to comply with current Health and Safety regulations a new gas interlocked Extraction / Air Input system was installed to provide a safe and well ventilated work area. The contract also specified the inclusion of new refrigeration, a dishwasher, fabricated tabling, a mixer and new servery counters.
Commenting on the project, Andy Bettany Director of BETTAquip said: “The key to meeting the customer’s expectations was in providing effective project management and liaising with other local building service trades in order to meet the agreed completion date within budget”.
Judith Lewis, St Michael’s College’s Business Manager commented: “BETTAquip has helped to provide a well thought out and practical solution for our catering needs, which wasn’t straight forward as our needs are wide ranging and diverse”.
Louise Morris, St Michael’s College’s Catering Manager said: “I am delighted with how the refurbishment turned out and I am confident that the new kitchen will assist my department in producing high quality meals”.
