Chefs prepping food in a commercial kitchen

prep, rotation & day dot

every prepped item, labeled right

prep dates, use-by dates, day-dot rotation, color coding — printed straight from your system to your Brother hardware. no marker pens, no guesswork, nothing missed.

the whole prep lifecycle, labeled

from the moment food is prepped to the moment it's pulled, Dill prints the label that goes with it — prepped date, use-by, batch, allergens if needed. consistent every time, across every site, without anyone writing by hand.

color-coded day dots, automated

a color for every day of the week means staff read rotation at a glance — no squinting at handwritten dates. Dill prints the right color for the right day automatically, so first-in-first-out actually happens and expired stock gets caught before it's served.

  • a distinct color per day — rotation visible across the whole kitchen
  • the right color printed automatically, never the wrong one by mistake
  • first-in-first-out enforced by what's on the shelf, not memory
  • works on Brother label stock you already use

every site labels the same way, so standards hold everywhere

food safety as the default, not the effort

when labeling is automatic, food safety stops being something staff have to remember and starts being how the kitchen runs. fewer errors, less waste, and an audit trail that holds up to a health inspection.

  • prep, use-by and day-dot on every label automatically
  • color-coded rotation printed without thinking about it
  • less food waste — nothing forgotten at the back of the fridge
  • prints to Brother hardware — no new kit
  • consistent across every site, every shift
