In a place in contact with the public, which is a café, a restaurant or a hotel, is very important to be able to obtain a reduction in the acoustic impact. 
As operators know well, the sensation of well-being that people feel when they are in a restaurant, hotel or café is strictly related to the sound comfort which that place is able to offer.

Alessandro Lonardelli is perfectly aware of this; he’s the owner and manager of two spaces: YACHT BAR and Hotel Kriss International, both located in Bardolino (Verona), a wonderful touristic location on the side of Lake Garda.

Alessandro, how did you think to reduce the noise pollution of the bar counter in your spaces?

“I immediately provide them with automatic coffee grounds cleaner Pro-Fondi, an efficient and silent solution to cleaning the portafilter”. 

Alessandro’s choice to equip both places with Pro-Fondi® EVO comes from recognizing the importance of the acoustic impact and from the desire to minimize it in order to improve customer’s comfort. 
“The fundamental aspect that brings me to choose Pro-Fondi® is its silence”, explain Alessandro, who bought his first Pro-Fondi in the same year in which it was launched on the market for the first time, in 2016. That first electric beater Pro-Fondi® was placed immediately on the counter of his YACHT BAR, while the second, purchased in 2018, has modernly equipped his 4-star Hotel Kriss International. 

“It’s a professional, silent and handy tool”, explain Alessandro, “it’s very simple to use, also for a neophyte bartender. Moreover, the silence e and the elegance of Pro-Fondi® EVO are well suited to the mood of my spaces”. 

Would you recommend also to other people the purchase of electric coffee grounds cleaner Pro-Fondi?

“Of course, I’ve already suggested it to several colleagues who manage bar, restaurants and hotels who care a lot about the sound comfort of their places and the practicality of using work tools”. 

Is there any other reason why you and your staff appreciate Pro-Fondi®?

“We also care a lot about environmental sustainability, in fact in our Hotel we manage to separate 92% of waste: Pro-Fondi® EVO allows us to collect the coffee grounds separately using a bag that we choose in the compostable material version. 
In this way, in the bag where other waste generally ends up, in our case only the coffee grounds are collected, that we like reusing in different ways (for example to fertilize plants)”. 

What’s your experience regarding maintenance of Pro-Fondi® devices?

“Since I’ve bought them, we’ve never had any problems, nor have I ever had to change the impeller or other components. Personally, sometimes I like coming to you, at the Ambrodesign office, to let you check the Pro-Fondi I bought: it’s like an “inspection” that I reserve for both devices and that reassures me about their good conditions”. 

From this testimony by Alessandro Lonardelli, owner of a bar and a hotel, it’s clear how much the acoustic correction of a space is an aspect that is more and more considered in the world of Ho.Re.Ca. 
In fact, an increasing number of customers expect, not only excellent service and food, but also a comfort location in which to stop to have a coffee, eat or spend time with friends without struggling to talk due to excessive noise coming from the bar. 

For a place, the acoustic comfort perceived by its customers is an advantage, also in terms of reputation: in how many reviews of a bar, restaurant or hotel, the noise of it is noticed as an insurmountable inconvenience, which can nullify also the best coffee or menu in the world?

Batten down the hatches to reduce the acoustic impact of a bar, restaurant or hotel is easy and quick, with Pro-Fondi® EVO!
