With new School Food Standards set to come into effect from September 2027, schools in England will need to move away from deep-fried foods.
So how do you continue serving hot, crispy chips that students actually want to eat – without a deep-fat fryer?
Meet LightFry – the Professional Commercial Air Fryer.
To help education establishments prepare for the changes, WhitCo Catering & Bakery Equipment Ltd is holding a special education nett price on LightFry from 1 September 2026 until 31 August 2027, available to Schools, Further Education and Higher Education establishments.
And we’re including a complete support package:
✅ Special nett price including installation
✅ First year’s cleaning chemicals included
✅ Staff training sessions
✅ Quick Cook Menu Guide
🍟 Cook up to 2.5kg of chips per batch
⚡ Up to 50% lower energy consumption compared with traditional oil frying
🛢️ No additional frying oil required for suitable frozen, par-fried products
🧼 Integrated automatic cleaning
👩🍳 30 programmable cooking programmes for consistent results
⏱️ No recovery time between batches
🙌 Load the basket, select the programme and LightFry cooks automatically – freeing staff for other tasks
💨 Ventless hood option available where traditional extraction isn't practical
We’ve already worked with McCain Foodservice and Lamb Weston to achieve fantastic chip results in LightFry.
If your school, college or university is reviewing its catering equipment ahead of the new standards, now is the perfect time to see what LightFry Sweden can do.
