Recapping 2025: New Product Unveils
Before we start – let’s go over a quick programming note as we enter the month of December.
Over the next two weeks, we will recap some of the major IMC activities that happened throughout 2025, namely new products & trade shows/events. For the final blog of 2025, we will look at future industry trends as we usually do. It’s been an entertaining year & we’re happy to have an active & attentive audience that is willing to learn more about the IMC & the stainless steel world. We hope to see everyone back in 2026. With that said, let’s start the final month of blogging!
IMC/Teddy released four major products at The NAFEM Show 2025. These products are the result of months of engineering & innovation to bring you items that can be useful in all commercial facilities. Let’s look at the fabulous four:
1. Model #HDCI – HydroCool Insert
This is IMC’s version of a “cool floor trough” used for commercial & institutional buildings or large food prep facilities where hot water discharge must be cooled. Typical uses are under a tilt skillet or kettle or under any pieces of equipment where hot water discharge is present.
The chief reason for integrating HDCI in your facility is to comply with local plumbing codes. Various plumbing codes across the country require hot drain water (above 140°F) to either be cooled or to drain into a pipe that can physically withstand hot water. HDCI is the solution for cooling this hot water before it goes down into the drain pipe. Have a quick look:
2. Model #PFT – Portable Floor Trough
It’s the ultimate drainage solution on the go. Model #PFT is designed first & foremost as a portable, compact item but the trough itself is ready to manage even the heaviest drainage. The trough is 6” deep, making it one of the deepest troughs IMC manufactures.
PFT is best paired with kettles or any equipment where liquid drainage is present. It is especially useful where a kettle’s pour path does not line up correctly with standard troughs. It is ultimately designed for areas where field conditions prohibit the placement of a trough in the kettle pour path. Here’s a visual:
3. Model #CMSC-RF – Combo Mop & Storage Cabinet w/ Fan Assembly
Model #CMSC-RF is one of the most advanced mop sink cabinets on the market. It’s specifically designed to eliminate all odors & stop mold growth in the cabinet interior. This is done by way of an integrated fan assembly & side louvers that keeps your cabinet dry, odor free & completely hygienic.
Aside from these defining features, CMSC-RF brings all the standard features of IMC’s CMSC-R mop sink cabinet such as fixed shelves, mop holders, service sink, compartment for mop bucket storage & so on. Here’s a peek:
4. Model #LSB – Locker & Shoe Bench
Model #LSB comes together as the preferred choice for security & seating in one unit. LSB is provided with (3) lockable compartments with doors. Partitions separate the storage compartments for organization purposes. A fixed open front bottom shelf is also provided with channels.
The bench is a perfect companion to IMC’s Chef’s Closet (Model #CHCB-24) & Chef’s Bench (Model #BNC) creating a total storage system. Here’s a breakdown:
We were delighted to see the warm reception at The NAFEM Show for the above unveils & are proud of what the final products have achieved thus far. It certainly has been a year of industry firsts for IMC/Teddy & we’re only tipping the iceberg of things to come. Stay tuned in 2026 for even more new products to aid in your productivity.
