Commercial energy-saving jikos (stoves)

The Kimtech commercial energy-saving jikos are heavy-duty, locally-fabricated institutional stoves engineered to dramatically reduce fuel consumption while delivering faster, more consistent cooking performance for Kenya’s schools, hospitals, hotels, churches, mosques, children’s homes, and large-scale catering operations. Designed specifically for the high-volume cooking demands of Kenyan institutions, these commercial energy-saving jikos can reduce firewood and charcoal consumption by up to 70% compared to traditional open-fire cooking methods — delivering significant cost savings every single day of operation.

At the core of every Kimtech commercial energy-saving jiko is a high-efficiency combustion chamber lined with refractory cement insulation that retains heat intensely, directs it precisely to the cooking vessel, and minimises heat loss to the surrounding environment. This advanced insulation design means less fuel is needed to reach and maintain cooking temperatures, whether you are preparing ugali, githeri, rice, porridge, or beans for hundreds of people at a time. The jikos are fully compatible with firewood, charcoal, and briquettes, giving your institution the flexibility to use whichever fuel source is most readily available and cost-effective in your area.

Available in capacities ranging from 50 litres to 500 litres, Kimtech commercial energy-saving jikos are custom fabricated to match the exact cooking volume requirements of your institution. A 100-litre jiko comfortably serves up to 150 people per meal, while larger units are ideal for secondary schools, hospitals, and county government feeding programmes across Kenya. Each unit features a dedicated smoke outlet and fire chamber design that channels combustion gases away from the kitchen, significantly reducing smoke exposure for kitchen staff and improving overall working conditions.

Built from heavy-gauge steel with optional stainless steel finishing, every Kimtech commercial energy-saving jiko is designed for years of daily institutional use with minimal maintenance. Custom sizes, single and double-pot configurations, and nationwide delivery are all available.
