New California Health Code- Requires 3 Compartment Sink on Carts
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008By: Jim Juliano
On July 20,2007, a new health code went into effect in the state of California requiring mobile espresso, smoothie, and foodservice carts serving any blended items to have a three compartment sink to sanitize their utensils. Below is an excerpt from the actual code:
114313. (a)Except as specified in subdivision (b), mobile food facilities where non-prepackaged food is cooked, blended, or otherwise prepared shall provide a ware-washing sink with at least three compartments with two integral metal drainboards.
To meet the demand for this new state-mandated cart, Coffee Cart Biz Inc. has developed a turnkey three compartment sink station cart that has been the first of its kind to receive health department approvals in more than ten California counties. Coffee Cart Biz Inc. can build you a three compartment sink station that can work in conjunction with your current coffee cart business configuration, or they can build this unit as part of a new business setup. With this innovation, Coffee Cart Biz Inc can help to make your espresso, smoothie, or foodservice cart business fully health code compliant.
