In the restaurant business, ambiance is everything, but the kitchen is the engine. A successful dining experience depends on a perfect balance: a comfortable, inviting atmosphere for guests and a safe, efficient, and functional workspace for staff.
Addressing the core challenges you face every day.
An overpowering smell of cooking or excessive heat in the dining area is the fastest way to ruin guest ambiance. Proper kitchen ventilation is a complex engineering challenge.
High-powered cooking equipment, constant ventilation, and refrigeration make restaurants huge energy consumers. Unoptimized systems lead to razor-thin profit margins.
Commercial kitchens are high-risk environments. Compliance with fire safety codes, especially for cooking hoods and gas lines (NFPA 96), is mandatory and non-negotiable for safety and licensing.
The dining area must be a sanctuary. This requires draft-free, quiet air conditioning, appropriate lighting, and clean, functional restrooms to ensure a premium guest experience.
Solutions Tailored for MEP Engineering for Restaurants, Cafes & Food Chains
Design and installation of NFPA 96 compliant exhaust hoods, ductwork, makeup air systems, and exhaust fans to ensure a safe and clean kitchen environment.
Installation of silent and efficient air conditioning and heating systems (Split, Cassette, VRF) for dining areas, cafes, and patios to ensure guest comfort.
Installation and integration of automated wet chemical fire fighting systems for cooking lines, protecting against grease fires and ensuring safety compliance.
Complete plumbing for kitchens and restrooms, including hot water systems, high-traffic fixtures, and correctly sized grease traps to prevent blockages.
Safe and compliant design and installation of natural gas lines for all cooking equipment, ensuring adequate pressure and adherence to local utility codes.
Power distribution for all kitchen equipment and design of ambient and functional lighting for both front-of-house and back-of-house areas.
Implementing centralized controls for multi-location chains to monitor and manage HVAC and lighting, ensuring brand consistency and optimizing energy use.
In-house fabrication of custom GI and stainless steel (SS) ducting for kitchen exhaust and HVAC, ensuring a perfect fit and clean installation.
A new upscale restaurant needed an MEP system that was acoustically silent, completely invisible within the high-end interior design, and could effectively manage the exhaust from a large, open-plan kitchen without affecting the dining area.
A rapidly expanding fast-food chain required a standardized, cost-effective, and easy-to-maintain MEP design for their new outlets across Pakistan. Key needs were high-efficiency kitchen ventilation, robust plumbing for high traffic, and energy efficiency to control operational costs.
We specialize in NFPA 96 compliant kitchen ventilation. We design systems with high-capture efficiency hoods and balanced makeup air to ensure a clean, comfortable environment in both the kitchen and dining areas.
We understand the economics of the F&B industry. Our solutions, from energy-efficient HVAC to correctly sized gas lines, are designed to lower your monthly utility bills and reduce operational costs.
We ensure your restaurant is safe and up to code. Our expertise in gas piping, kitchen fire suppression systems, and emergency lighting helps you pass all safety inspections and protect your staff, customers, and investment.
We work closely with your architects and interior designers to seamlessly integrate our MEP systems. We deliver silent HVAC and sophisticated lighting controls that enhance your design and create the perfect dining mood.
"They are the only team I trust with my restaurants. They truly understand kitchen ventilation. Our dining room is always comfortable, our kitchen is safe, and they helped us design a system that keeps our utility bills manageable. They are essential partners for anyone in the F&B business."

The key is creating a 'negative pressure' in the kitchen. We design the exhaust system to pull out slightly more air than the makeup air system supplies. This ensures all air, along with odors, flows into the kitchen and out the exhaust, never into the dining room.
Yes, absolutely. Standard building sprinklers are not sufficient for grease fires. A dedicated wet chemical fire suppression system for your cooking line is mandatory by law in most areas and essential for safety and insurance purposes.
Yes. We handle the complete gas piping installation, from the main meter to each piece of cooking equipment. We design the system with correct pipe sizing to ensure adequate pressure and perform all necessary safety tests to meet local gas company standards.
