In today’s foodservice operations, cost control doesn’t end at the purchasing decision.

Ongoing operational efficiency — especially in energy and water use — has become

a critical metric for success. That’s why ENERGY STAR® certified warewashers have

become a preferred choice for many Canadian operators. These units aren’t just

greener — they’re smarter investments, offering better performance, lower utility bills,

and longer-lasting components.

What is ENERGY STAR®?

ENERGY STAR® is a voluntary certification

program backed by Natural Resources

Canada and the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Products that earn the ENERGY STAR®

label meet strict criteria for energy

efficiency, water consumption, and

performance.

For commercial dishwashers, this means:

• Reduced energy consumption per rack

• Lower water usage per cycle

• Verified sanitization performance under

real-world conditions

ENERGY STAR® units are tested with

racks of dishes that mimic real-life soiling

— not just lab conditions — ensuring the

data reflects the realities of a busy kitchen.
