Berkel - Manual domestic flywheel slicer B2 red

The small flywheel slicer that fits anywhere. The manual flywheel meat slicer for those who want to bring a touch of class to their homes and tables. Its elegance brightens up the room, its perfect cut is a celebration of flavours. All this in a compact little jewel.

DETAILS

It is the last born and the more compact slicer in the modern era of Berkel Volano family. Despite a 265mm diameter blade, at the top of the category, the brand new Volano B2 has super compact dimensions that facilitate an easy positioning in your kitchen. The flywheel protrudes below the working table only about 33mm to allow the opening of the lower drawers; the well known attention to details of the Berkel products makes even more difference in this case. Graceful and well-proportioned, it keeps the distinctive elegance of our Volano slicers providing at the same time the perfect cut that our founder Wilhelmus van Berkel researched for a long time.

Berkel

The history of Berkel began with Wilhelmus Adrianus Van Berkel. He was born in Enschot, Holland on 05/02/1869 and died in Montreaux, Switzerland on 11/12/1952.    He was a butcher with a great passion for mechanics. His brains, urged by necessity to improve the old cut tools, induced him to invent the first mechanical slicing machine of his times and called it “Berkel Model A”. In 1899 Van Berkel established its first factory in Rotterdam. The following year, 84 slicing machines were produced and delivered by the Van Berkel’s Patent Company Ltd., and were: 76 Mod. A, 3 Mod. B, 5 Mod. C enriching the offer range. Since then the firm Van Berkel’s Patent grew continuously. It opened factories in Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, U.S.A., Southern America, France, Norway, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Spain, Portugal and Canada. It produced not only slicers but also balances, mincing-machines, coffee-grinders, bread slicers, and during the First World War planes, internal combustion engines, parallel lathes, and mechanical instruments generally speaking. It became one of the most important firm in the world.
