Chafing Dishes
If you're looking for a buffet food warmer that can keep contents hot without the need for mains electricity, a chafing dish is the perfect solution. Chafing dishes act as an indirect heat stove which can keep food hot for hours in any location with a solid level surface. Unlike electric bains marie, these dishes eliminate the need for electric cables and remove potential trip hazards.
An ideal buffet warmer, a chafing dish can be used with chafing fuel to provide a reliable heat supply for up to six hours where there is no plug socket. You can even use them on plastic tables and table cloths without worrying about heat or fire going anywhere near them.
