A similar trend can be observed all over the world, the mobile gastronomy sector in the United States in 2019 alone increased by nearly 20%.

Accuride guides lead WARK Group to success!
In today's world where time is always short, people are looking for ways to simplify and speed up daily activities such as meals and shopping. In the years 2012-2017, the number of catering establishments increased by over 5%, among all types of establishments, the largest increase, i.e. over 32%, was recorded in mobile catering establishments. A similar trend can be observed all over the world, the mobile gastronomy sector in the United States in 2019 alone increased by nearly 20%. The reason for this is not only more effective customer service, but also flexibility and low operating costs.

WARK Group, operating in Jelonek near Poznań, specializing in the production of special catering, commercial and advertising trailers, knows everything about the popularity of mobile services. Based on many years of experience in the industry, the WARK Group designs and constructs professional catering trailers. Their characteristic feature is not only functionality, but also a great, eye-catching, attractive appearance. One of the company's recent projects was a trailer for a French pastry shop equipped with a cooled drawer for sandwiches, cookies and desserts, and a container for storing products at ambient temperature. The challenge when designing the trailer was to guarantee sufficient load capacity and smooth movement while maintaining the aesthetic appearance.

This required the use of a low-profile guide, so that it remained invisible to customers while providing adequate load capacity. In order to find the right guide, WARK asked us to propose the best solution for linear travel. We have been providing maintenance products for over 30 years, and for 13 years we have been working closely with Accuride - a world-renowned manufacturer of telescopic guides. Albeco specialists carried out the necessary calculations of the required load capacity and provided WARK Group with high-quality Accuride products ensuring reliable operation.

For this application, our DA0116RC linear guide was selected, and the DS0116-CASSRC carriage equipped with stainless steel ball bearings and end stops. This slide has a load capacity of up to 360 kg, making it perfect for a refrigerator weighing 300 kg. The DA0116RC can be cut to the desired length using the number of cassettes needed. So it fits perfectly with individual projects like this one. If you are inspired by the solutions used in the catering trailer and would like to find out how Accuride can help you in your next project, contact us today to talk to one of our team of experts. You can check the availability of the Accuride DA0116RC slide and the Accuride DS0116-CASSRC trolley in our e-shop at any time.
