Eloma

Eloma has functioned as a premier specialist in high-performance combi steamers and baking ovens since its founding in 1975. Based in Maisach, Germany, the company operates as a key member of the Ali Group, having joined the conglomerate in 2007. The brand is defined by its "100% Made in Germany" philosophy, focusing on combining traditional craftsmanship with digital automation for the professional gastronomy and bakery sectors.

The brand's technical identity is defined by its mastery of live steam generation and thermal recovery. A primary engineering hallmark is the Multi-Eco System, which utilizes a high-efficiency heat exchanger to recycle steam and heat from the cooking chamber to pre-heat incoming water. This significantly reduces energy and water consumption while accelerating the steam generation process. Unlike traditional boiler systems, Eloma’s fresh steam system generates moisture directly in the cooking chamber, allowing for milliliter-precise saturation and rapid transitions between cooking modes.

Innovation at Eloma is concentrated on the "Simplicity at its best" principle, centered on its proprietary MT Technology. Key technical pillars include:

• MultiTouch Interface: A high-resolution capacitive glass display that allows for "scroll, swipe, and select" functionality, mirroring smartphone ergonomics for complex cooking and baking programs.
• Airflowlogic: A patented air distribution system that optimizes fan geometry and chamber aerodynamics to ensure identical heat saturation across all tray levels, regardless of load.
• Autoclean Pro: A fully automatic, hybrid cleaning system that allows operators to use either liquid detergents or solid tabs, featuring a 365-day scheduling tool and resource-optimized cycles.
• ProConnect: A centralized software platform for managing multiple units across different locations, facilitating remote recipe distribution, software updates, and HACCP data logging.

The product portfolio is categorized by its footprint and specialized culinary application:

• Joker Series: Recognized as the industry's first fully configurable compact combi. It allows operators to select the position of the control module (top, left, or right), the door hinge side, and the specific steam system to fit tight urban kitchen layouts.
• Genius MT: The flagship high-capacity combi steamer for high-volume gastronomy, featuring 9-inch displays and advanced climate control for precise roasting and steaming.
• Backmaster: A specialized line for the bakery and retail sectors, engineered with specific airflow and moisture parameters to produce artisanal-quality crust and crumb in a commercial bake-off environment.
• Multimax: A simplified, essentialist line designed for chefs who prefer manual control and straightforward operation without extensive automation.

The strategic value of Eloma lies in its "specialist" engineering and its integration into the Ali Group’s global service network. By focusing exclusively on the thermal processing of food, the brand achieves a level of precision in steam management that is highly valued in fine dining and high-end pastry production. Supported by a robust domestic manufacturing base and a focus on modularity, Eloma provides a high-yield foundation for operations seeking durable, energy-efficient cooking platforms that bridge the gap between artisanal results and industrial efficiency.
