Data-driven kitchen – safe refrigeration, less waste and a documented working environment
In commercial kitchens, small deviations can have big consequences. A refrigerator temperature that rises undetected can lead to the scrapping of goods. Equipment that is used inappropriately can drive up energy consumption. And a working environment characterized by high temperatures, noise and particles is difficult to document without data.
With Smart Building from KM Telecom, you get a data-driven kitchen based on the ConneX platform, which provides continuous insight into temperatures, energy consumption and the working environment – automatically and in real time. It is a digital kitchen solution that makes it possible to detect deviations early, prevent losses and create a safer and more efficient kitchen operation.
The result is fewer scraps, lower energy consumption and a working environment that can be documented – not just felt.
One infrastructure – all possibilities
Once the sensors are in place, the infrastructure is ready for much more than the kitchen. The same installation opens up energy overview, indoor climate, canteen insight, space management and much more – without additional hardware. You invest in one infrastructure and get access to the entire Smart Building concept when you are ready.

From manual control to digital kitchen solution with ongoing insight
A data-driven kitchen replaces manual controls with continuous monitoring. The ConneX platform collects data from sensors in the cold and freezer zones, production areas and work environment – giving you a complete picture of the kitchen’s operations.
Temperature monitoring and food safety
Continuous monitoring of refrigerated and frozen zones ensures that deviations are detected immediately. Notifications make it possible to react quickly and prevent loss of goods, operational disruptions and uncertainty in everyday life. Continuous temperature documentation creates a concrete basis for food safety and control – without manual readings.
Energy and usage patterns
A data-driven kitchen provides insight into how equipment and workflows affect energy consumption. When usage patterns become visible, behavior and operations can be adjusted in a targeted manner – reducing energy consumption without affecting production.
Working environment – documented, not just experienced
The working environment in commercial kitchens is often burdened by high temperatures, noise, CO2 and particles from frying and production. With a digital kitchen solution, the conditions are documented continuously, so you have a concrete data basis for dialogue with the occupational health and safety organization, management and authorities.
The solution allows, among other things, to:
- Monitor refrigeration and freezing temperatures continuously
- Prevent waste and ensure food safety through temperature documentation
- Visualize usage patterns that drive energy consumption in a data-driven kitchen
- Document indoor climate and load – temperature, noise, CO2 and air quality
- Work systematically with behavior and energy savings in kitchen operations
Documentation of waste via API
The ConneX platform can integrate waste data via API, so that documentation of food waste and leftovers from the kitchen is collected in the same overview as temperature, energy and working environment. This provides a complete picture of the kitchen's resource consumption and strengthens the basis for ESG reporting and sustainability efforts.
Simple implementation – you're up and running quickly
The implementation is adapted to your kitchen environment and follows a fixed structure: joint start-up, setup in the ConneX platform, installation of sensors and handover with training. You are operational within a short time.
A data-driven kitchen reduces food waste, energy and risk
When kitchen data is collected continuously, value is created across economics, food safety and the work environment.
Fewer scraps – lower losses
Continuous temperature monitoring means that refrigeration and freezing failures are detected in time. This significantly reduces product scrapping and provides more predictable operations. A data-driven kitchen reduces food waste because deviations are handled before they become losses.
Lower energy consumption
When usage patterns are visible, operations and behavior can be adjusted so that equipment is not running unnecessarily. This lowers energy consumption without compromising production – and the effect can be documented directly in the ConneX platform.
Documentation for food safety and compliance
Continuous temperature documentation gives you a traceable data base that can be used directly for supervision, audits and internal control. You get rid of manual logbooks and instead get automatic documentation that is ready when it is needed.
Occupational health and safety documentation for ESG and authorities
Data on temperature, noise, CO2 and air quality in the kitchen can be used in ESG reporting and in the dialogue with occupational health and safety authorities. A digital kitchen solution makes occupational health and safety efforts measurable and documentable.
Connection with the rest of the building
Because the commercial kitchen solution is part of Smart Building from KM Telecom, data does not live in isolation. Kitchen data is directly linked to canteen insight, energy overview, indoor climate and cleaning in the ConneX platform – so you get a single, comprehensive overview. And because the infrastructure is already in place, new functions can be activated on an ongoing basis – without additional installation.
A digital kitchen solution that replaces manual controls with continuous insight
Most commercial kitchens still operate with manual temperature logs, periodic checks and reactive error handling. It works – until a cooler fails over the weekend or an audit requires documentation that doesn’t exist.
Data-driven kitchen reduces food waste – systematically
Instead of discovering problems after the damage has occurred, the ConneX platform gives you ongoing insights that prevent losses. A data-driven kitchen reduces food waste as a natural part of daily operations – not as a stand-alone initiative.
Documentation that is always ready
Temperature documentation, waste data, working environment data and energy consumption are automatically recorded. You always have an updated and traceable data base ready for supervision, audits, management reporting and ESG.
Built for operation – not just for measurement
The ConneX platform is a work tool for daily operations, where kitchen data, canteen insight, indoor climate, energy and cleaning are collected in one system. You get one overview and one platform – instead of fragmented controls and manual logbooks.
The result:
A data-driven kitchen with higher operational reliability, a better working environment and lower energy consumption – where ongoing insight replaces manual checks and creates the foundation for safer, more efficient and documented kitchen operations.
