A combi oven is one of the most versatile pieces of commercial cooking equipment you can add to a professional kitchen. Combining convection heat and steam in a single appliance, a commercial combi oven lets you roast, bake, steam, grill, regenerate and hold with precise control over temperature and humidity. The result is faster cooking, improved yield, better texture and consistent, repeatable results across every service.
Caterware’s range of commercial combi ovens includes leading brands such as Fagor, Giorik, Smeg and Tecnodom, with models to suit everything from compact production kitchens to high-volume hotels, clubs and large catering facilities. Choose from 5, 6, 10 or 20 tray combi ovens with electric or gas configurations, boiler and boilerless options, and intuitive digital controls that support pre-set programs and multi-stage cooking. Whether you are batch cooking, finishing à la carte dishes or regenerating banqueting trays, a quality combination oven helps streamline workflow and reduce labour.
Investing in the right combi oven can significantly cut cooking times, reduce product shrinkage and improve food quality. Steam modes preserve moisture and nutrients in vegetables and proteins, while dry convection provides colour and crispness for roasts and baked items. Combination modes use both, delivering high-end results with less manual intervention. With robust stainless steel construction, integrated cleaning functions and options such as reverse osmosis or standard filtration, these commercial combination ovens are designed to handle demanding Australian hospitality environments every day.
Backed by Caterware’s industry experience and support, you can select a combi oven for sale that aligns with your menu, space and production requirements, knowing you are choosing proven commercial equipment for your kitchen.
Combi Oven FAQs
What is a combi oven and how does it work?
A combi oven is a combination oven that uses dry heat (convection), steam or a mix of both in the same cooking chamber. This allows you to bake, roast, steam, grill and regenerate food with precise control over temperature and humidity.
What are the benefits of a commercial combi oven in a restaurant kitchen?
Commercial combi ovens offer faster cook times, improved consistency, reduced product shrinkage and better moisture retention. They also allow you to batch cook, hold and regenerate food, which helps streamline service and reduce labour in busy kitchens.
Should I choose a gas combi oven or an electric combi oven?
Both options are common in commercial kitchens.
-
Gas combi ovens can offer lower running costs where gas pricing is favourable.
-
Electric combi ovens are often easier to install in sites with strong electrical supply and may be preferred in some commercial buildings.
Your choice will depend on existing services, energy costs and site requirements.
What size combi oven do I need for my business?
This depends on your volume and menu.
-
5–6 tray combi ovens suit cafés, small restaurants and satellite kitchens.
-
10 tray combi ovens are ideal for busy restaurants and mid-size venues.
-
20 tray combi ovens are suited to hotels, clubs, hospitals and high-volume catering.
Consider how many portions you need to cook per service and the size of your trays (e.g. GN 1/1).
Can a combi oven replace other equipment in my kitchen?
In many cases, yes. A commercial combi oven can replace or reduce the need for separate steamers, convection ovens and holding cabinets. However, most kitchens still pair combi ovens with other equipment such as ranges, grills or fryers depending on their menu.
Do combi ovens need filtered or treated water?
Most combi ovens require water treatment (standard filtration or reverse osmosis) to protect the boiler or generator from scale and mineral build-up. Using the recommended water treatment helps maintain performance, reduce breakdowns and extend the life of the oven.
