A commercial cheese grater shreds and grates large amounts of cheese quickly and evenly, saving prep time over hand grating. Babak Food Equipment offers electric cheese graters, including Omcan models, for pizzerias, Italian restaurants, delis, caterers and institutional kitchens across Vancouver and British Columbia; ask our team about options.
What to look for in a commercial cheese grater

Cheese type: hard cheeses like Parmesan need a grating drum; softer cheeses like mozzarella usually need a shredding disc.
Volume: choose a motor sized for how many pounds you grate per day.
Hopper size: a larger hopper takes bigger blocks and reduces pre-cutting.
Safety: look for a pusher, guards and a safety switch.
Cleaning: removable drums and discs make cleaning and sanitizing easier.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between grating and shredding cheese?
Grating produces fine particles, usually from hard cheese. Shredding makes longer strands, typical for softer cheeses like mozzarella and cheddar.
Can an electric cheese grater handle soft cheese?
Many can with the right disc. Chilling soft cheese first helps it shred cleanly.
Is a commercial cheese grater worth it?
For kitchens that grate several pounds a day, an electric grater saves labour and gives a more consistent result.
