CHAPTER NEWS

Integrate 2015 featured Hotels and Hospitality. Another successful major event of the Chapter. Following the dynamic "PechaKucha" Style conference on May 7, momentum continued, local and overseas delegates visited the Green Kitchen at Towngas on May 8.

Ir Chris Kum from Towngas had presented to us the customized household accessories and gadgets for domestic users and the advanced low carbon product for commercial kitchen. Technology has brought the traditional Chinese kitchen in a new era. In addition to Automatic Stir Fry Machine that can cook fry rice and Gas Jet Oven that can effectively handle large volume of food at the same time, there are also equipment that applies the latest heat exchange technology, e.g. steam cooking cabinet, BBQ roster and dishwashing machines, etc., attributes to energy saving (carbon reduction) and provides a ‘cool kitchen’ for chefs. We tasted the dishes after the demo and they were delicious!

Collocating with the Towngas center is a small museum that showcase history of Hong Kong and China Gas Co.. It was the first time for some of us to see the early years products such as gas operated iron. There are also pictures recalling our recollection of Year 1890 gas cooker, Year 1920 gas lamp at Nathan Road and gas production plant at West Point, Year 1930 window display of showroom on Nathan Road, Year 1924 Townhas showroom, supply gas to Choi Hung Estate in 1982…

Towngas is a ‘clean fuel’. It is a reformed gas combining natural gas and other components. Stay tuned with us for more Industrial Spotlight sessions and guided tours on ‘energy’ in 2015.
