Can Openers

Imagine how frustrating it would be to prepare all of the elements of your lunch for work, only to find that you can’t complete the meal you were planning on because there aren't any available can openers in the breakroom. Make sure employees aren't left empty-handed by keeping a can opener in the company kitchen, amidst the other breakroom appliances.

Handheld Versus Electric

When dealing with a company breakroom that has limited counter space, you may want to consider a manual can opener, since it can easily fit in a utensil drawer or be stashed away in any other compact space. However, if the breakroom is a bit roomier, swap the handheld can opener for an electric can opener one and save employees the hassle of hand-turning knobs. Simply line up a can and the electric can opener does the rest. Consider adding a blender or food processor to the breakroom as well, so employees can empty the contents of cans directly into the appliance to dice up ingredients or make smooth concoctions.

Basic Operation

Ranging from compact to extra-tall electric can opener models, there's an option to accommodate any type of can. Electric can openers generally feature push-lever or push-button operation, so all it takes is just 1 touch to begin the can-opening process. Most can openers automatically shut off once the entire can's lid has been removed, and a magnetic lid holder is ideal to free up hands, holding the can all by itself.

Extra Convenience Features

Cans often contain liquids that have a habit of spilling easily once the lid is removed. Make cleanup simple with a can opener that has a wipe-clean exterior. A built-in cord wrap makes it easy to tuck the can opener away when it's not in use, and units that feature an integrated knife sharpener offer dual-purpose operation.
