From Concept to Execution Plan: Precise, Safe, and Efficient

At Belta Tose’e, design and engineering serve as the connection between the client’s ideas and successful execution with sustainable operation. Relying on engineering expertise, deep knowledge of food industry requirements, and state-of-the-art specialized software, we create spaces that not only fully comply with technical and safety standards but also deliver the highest levels of efficiency, ergonomics, and operational quality. All designs are developed with a practical mindset, ensuring precise implementation and full coordination with procurement, installation, and operational phases.

Specialized Space Layout and Planning Design

The layout and planning of an industrial kitchen are designed based on workflow engineering principles and the work triangle concept. In this process, fully separated zones—including receiving, storage, preparation, cooking, service, and cleaning—are defined to optimize the movement of materials, equipment, and personnel while preventing cross-contamination. Adherence to ergonomic principles, standard spacing between equipment, and safety requirements ensures maximum operational efficiency and staff comfort.

Interior Decoration, Architectural Design, and Service Lines

Architectural and interior decoration design is carried out with an integrated approach, aligned with the brand identity. Selecting suitable materials for industrial environments, structural calculations, and attention to durability, hygiene, and safety are essential requirements in this phase. Additionally, specialized service, portioning, and delivery lines are designed considering ergonomics and environmental psychology to not only enhance speed and accuracy but also create a pleasant experience for customers and users.

Design of Mechanical and Utility Execution Plans

All mechanical installation execution plans—including water supply, sewage, gas, and HVAC systems—are designed precisely and engineered for accuracy. In the electrical section, the design includes main and subpanels, general and emergency lighting, and communication systems in accordance with the latest national building codes and engineering regulations. These plans serve as the foundation for safe and error-free project implementation.

Design of HVAC and Air Distribution Systems

The design of HVAC systems is carried out based on precise cooling and heating load calculations, along with analysis of climatic conditions and the functional use of the space. Industrial exhaust systems are designed through engineering-based determination of the required airflow rates for hoods and accurate estimation of makeup air. The selection of equipment with high energy efficiency and optimized life-cycle cost is a key priority in this process.

Design of Fire Detection and Firefighting Systems

Considering the specific risks associated with industrial kitchens, the design of fire detection and firefighting systems is carried out in a comprehensive and specialized manner. This design includes water-based (sprinkler), gaseous, and foam fire suppression systems, selected according to the type of space and the level of risk. All designs are performed in compliance with the latest editions of Fire Department regulations and internationally recognized NFPA standards.

How do we design a precise, safe, and efficient space—from concept to construction drawings?

At Balta Tose’e, design and engineering go beyond drawing plans; we integrate the client’s ideas with technical, safety, and operational requirements to deliver fully executable and sustainable solutions.
Needs Analysis and Precise Definition of Project Requirements
Reviewing the type of use, production capacity, operational processes, and regulatory requirements in order to establish a sound technical basis for design.
Integrated Design of Space, Process, and Equipment
The design of layouts, floor plans, workflow lines, and equipment placement is carried out based on workflow engineering principles, ergonomics, and the reduction of operational interferences.
Full Compliance with Technical and Safety Standards
All drawings are designed in compliance with National Building Regulations, health, safety, and fire protection requirements, as well as internationally recognized standards.
Full Readiness for Execution and Operation
Providing detailed execution drawings coordinated with procurement, installation, and commissioning phases in order to prevent errors, rework, and project delays.

Why do design and engineering play a key role in the success of execution and operation?

Poor or non-engineered design, even when using the best equipment, leads to reduced efficiency, increased costs, and higher safety risks. Proper engineering design is the backbone of a successful industrial kitchen and paves the way for efficient execution and sustainable operation.
Improving Productivity and Process Flow Efficiency
Design based on proper workflow minimizes unnecessary time, operational interferences, and energy waste.
Reduction of Safety and Health Risks
Proper planning of spaces, ventilation, utilities, and safety systems helps prevent accidents, cross-contamination, and unplanned shutdowns.
Control of Construction and Maintenance Costs
Accurate and well-engineered design prevents costly changes during execution and reduces maintenance and operational costs.
Facilitating Permit Approval and Sustainable Operation
Aligning the design with regulatory requirements and applicable standards facilitates the permitting process and enables long-term, trouble-free operation.
