As custom stainless steel fabrication specialists designing and building commercial kitchens suitable for small spaces, it was right up Target Catering's street when they were commisioned to build and install a catering facility within an American Airstream 1962 Trade Wind trailer.
With trailer conversions and specialist vehicles needing a road worthiness certificate, from 28th October 2014, it was essential that the first task was to get the iconic Airstream IVA tested. Modifing the trailer to comply with European and British specifications, the Airstream was then examined at the Avonmouth DVA test station where the modifications passed with flying colours.

Next came the fit out incorporating custom built stainless steel catering equipment and a complete mechanical and electrical installation.
LPG modular kitchen equipment from the Lincat 600 series range was chosen by Target and installed on a customised on a roll in roll out system making cleaning easy and allowing the cookline to be easily changed if needed.
To enable more working space within the trailer, the front servery counter was also fitted onto a roll in and out system. This enabled the servery counter to slide out under the gull wing side doors and awning. Lincat hot and cold table top servery display units were fitted over a hot cupboard and an Adande fridge freezer drawer unit.
