The VITO FT CONNECT frying oil tester has been awarded the prestigious Cooking Award 2026 by the German trade magazine Cooking + Catering Inside. This recognition adds to our success story, following the Catering Star Silver Award, which the FT CONNECT received from the same publication in December 2025.
Award-winning innovation for modern kitchens
The VITO FT CONNECT sets new standards in frying oil monitoring. This intelligent tester precisely measures the content of polar compounds (TPM) and displays the results immediately via a traffic-light system: Green indicates safe and unrestricted use, yellow signals an imminent need for oil replacement, and red demands an immediate oil change. This intuitive solution not only minimizes the risk of overused or prematurely discarded oil but also reduces costs and resources, making it a significant step forward for sustainability and efficiency.
Digitalization and compliance at the touch of a button
With the VITOconnect Bridge, the FT CONNECT automatically records all measurement data and stores it in HACCP-compliant documentation. Kitchen operators benefit from seamless digital quality monitoring, which significantly simplifies daily operations. Integration into existing quality management systems is effortless - a clear advantage for professional kitchens, restaurants, and catering businesses of all sizes.
Double recognition highlights innovation leadership
The FT CONNECT’s second industry award in such a short time underscores its impact and innovation. "This recognition is not only a confirmation of our work but also a strong incentive to continue developing technologies that make kitchens around the world more efficient, safer, and sustainable," says Alexander Schauf, Head of Sales for Germany at VITO AG.
