Rhea at Vendex Midlands launched two new solutions redefining the break moment

Rhea extends the coffee break experience beyond traditional vending, further enriching the hospitality industry

Rhea attended Vendex Midlands, one of the UK’s leading events for the vending sector, with the launch of two innovative solutions for a premium break experience, where design and automation converge: the free standing rhFS1for fresh leaf tea, featuring the induction heating technology – and the new rhFS2, with an integrated fresh milk system. 

The first freestanding for fresh leaf tea equipped with induction technology

Levereging the innovative and exclusive use of induction heating technology, the rhFS1 machine for fresh leaf tea ensures a perfect extraction while preserving the properties and taste of the classic British beverage. The optimal infusion temperature, precisely controlled through induction, guarantees not only the highest in cup quality, but also remarkable energy efficiency compared to traditional boiler-based systems.

At Vendex Midlands, Rhea presented another important innovation: the rhFS2.milk, a freestanding  equipped with an integrated fresh milk unit, designed to offer a wide variety of recipes enhanced with the possibility of using fresh milk and plant-based alternatives, meeting the needs of every consumer.

The rhFS2.milk also features Varitherm induction technology for indirect milk heating, ensuring high in-cup quality. The precise temperature control for each type of ingredients allows for a  layered latte macchiato, with every ingredient at the right temperature. Moreover, the absence of a boiler reduces the risk of limescale buildup and enables significant energy savings compared to machines equipped with boiler.

“Our constant commitment to excellence leads us to develop solutions that enhance the quality of the coffee break, offering premium hospitality and a superior consumer experience. By integrating traditional recipes with new technologies, we ensure services that respects consumer habits while improving satisfaction through sustainable and efficient solutions,” said Andrea Pozzolini, CEO, Rhea.

“The UK market is one of the most demanding and dynamic in Europe, with a strong focus on drink quality and technological innovation. The launch of these two machines perfectly meets the expectations of British consumers, who are increasingly oriented towards premium and sustainable consumption experiences. With our presence at Vendex Midlands, we want to emphasize our commitment to providing solutions that combine tradition and technology to enhance every break, from the afternoon tea to the perfect cappuccino,” added Steve Rossington, Managing Director, Rheavendors UK.

Rhea confirms its leadership in the vending sector for the hospitality industry, transforming the coffee break into an exclusive, high-quality experience.
