For over 100 years, Barmelweid has been a small community world – a clinic and employer, a recreation area, a healthcare facility, a nature reserve and an educational center. In 2014, due to a lack of space, it became necessary to start a comprehensive renovation and expansion project, which includes a new public restaurant and a hotel.
Thanks to the four Franke A1000, sixteen A800 and four A600 coffee machines located throughout the premises, all patients, staff and visitors can enjoy a barista-quality coffee creation with a magnificent view of the neighboring valley from anywhere in the facility.
Franke as a partner

For over 100 years, Barmelweid has been a small community world – clinic and employer, recreation area, healthcare facility care, nature reserve and educational center. In 2014, due to lack of space, it became necessary to start a comprehensive renovation and expansion project, which includes a new public restaurant and a hotel.

Thanks to the four Franke A1000, sixteen A800 and four A600 coffee machines located throughout the premises, all patients, staff and visitors can enjoy a barista-quality coffee creation with a magnificent view of the neighboring valley from anywhere in the facility.

“Our goal is the top quality in all areas – including the technical catering services and kitchen infrastructure. It was particularly important for us to be able to offer high-quality coffee to the Barmelweid Clinic,” says Jürg Rebholz, Head of Hospitality at Barmelweid.
A number of features and functions were decisive for Rebholz in switching to Franke, including the innovative, integrated technologies of the A800 and A1000 coffee machines.
iQFlow™ provides first-class aroma extraction and consistent coffee quality, cup after cup, while FoamMaster™ ensures the consistency of hot and cold milk foam, individually adapted to the selected coffee product or milk type.
The A1000 is also equipped with two grinders and a three-boiler system for hot water, coffee preparation and steam. Barmelweid also opted for a Taste Station. Other impressive features include the large digital user interface and the integrated payment system, which allows employees to select and purchase what they want simply by scanning their personal card.
