Induction equipment
Induction ranges deliver fast, efficient cooking with precise heat control. Your kitchen heats cookware directly, not the cooking surface, reducing energy waste and kitchen temperature rise—ideal for busy service lines.
Browse tabletop and built-in induction units from 1 to 4 plates, ranging from 3.5 kW to 14 kW. Stock efficient cookware to unlock full performance.
Induction cooktops and ranges deliver precise heat control and rapid boil times via magnetic technology. Suited to high-volume kitchens, cafés, and restaurants needing reliable, efficient cooking. Power ratings from 3.5kW single-plate units to 14kW four-plate ranges; footprints from 600mm to 900mm widths.
Induction cooking suits restaurants, hotels, cafés and catering operations where speed and consistency matter. Units run cooler than gas or traditional electric, improving staff comfort during long shifts.
When comparing models, check plate count, total power draw (kW), and whether your electrical supply supports the load. Tabletop ranges suit temporary or flexible kitchen layouts; built-in frames integrate into permanent stations.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
Common questions
What power supply do these units require?▾

What footprint options are available?▾
Base 600 (single-plate tabletop), Base 700 (two and four-plate models, both tabletop and undercounter), and Base 900 (two-plate units). All suit standard line configurations.
Can I get a wok cooker, or just flat ranges?▾
Yes. Combisteel Base 700 Induction Wok Cookers are available in 5kW output, both tabletop and undercounter formats, alongside standard plate ranges.
What's the price range for a four-plate unit?▾

Are these tabletop or built-in, or both?▾
Both. Most models come in tabletop and undercounter versions. Check product title—'Tabletop' units sit atop existing benches; unlabelled versions are undercounter installations.
What cookware works with induction?▾
Only ferrous-metal cookware (cast iron, stainless steel with magnetic base) functions. Aluminium, copper, or non-magnetic stainless pans will not heat on induction plates.
