World first: canned cheeseburger
17.07.2007:
Katadyn will present a world first at Europe’s largest outdoor trade show: the canned cheeseburger. It is extremely easy to prepare. Simply heat the can in a water bath, open the lid, and enjoy your cheeseburger. Never before has it been so easy to prepare a burger so quickly in the wilderness. The OutDoor exhibition will take place in Friedrichshafen, Germany, from July 19 to 22.
Under the Trekking-Mahlzeiten label, Katadyn has rolled out the world’s first Canned Cheeseburger. It ensures enjoyable meals in the mountains and other extreme situations. People who take advantage of the vast experience of an expedition food specialist such as Trekking-Mahlzeiten for cooking their outdoor meals will get more out of life: more pleasure, less weight to carry, and more time for other things. The canned cheeseburger has a shelf life of twelve months without requiring refrigeration.
Other innovations that the Swiss Group will present in Friedrichshafen include Peronin from Trekking-Mahlzeiten, the complete food in a liquid form for marathon runners, long mountain hikes, and expeditions. Peronin enters the bloodstream directly, offering the body energy that is immediately available.
The Vario filter from Katadyn supplies fresh drinking water in record time. This newest-generation hydropower plant is distinguished especially by its high filtering capacity, which can be individually adjusted to suit the specific water turbidity. The advantage: In treating clear lake and river water, the filter will supply up to two liters of pure drinking water within one minute.
The smartly organized First-aid Travel Kit from PharmaVoyage prevents a chaos of drugs in first-aid kits and offers additional space for accommodating personal allergy medication and contact lens cleansers. The following versions are now available, just in time for the vacation season: Basic Kit, Family Kit, Universal Kit.
Katadyn has been developing water filters, chlorine and silver-based water disinfectants and mobile desalinators for travel, camping, outdoor, and marine use for over 50 years. Numerous disaster relief organizations and militaries apply Katadyn products for survival and rescue purposes. With the PremiumVoyage product line of innovative travel accessories and the Trekking-Mahlzeiten line of freeze-dried nutrition, Katadyn is a very diverse player in the travel market.
