- Rational AG Rational AG manufactures and sells commercial kitchen equipment specializing in thermal food preparation systems for professional kitchens worldwide. The company offers core products including the iCombi Pro and iCombi Classic intelligent combi-steamers, which combine steaming, convection, baking, roasting, grilling, and other cooking methods; the iVario Pro multifunctional cooking system, which replaces traditional appliances such as deep-fat fryers, boiling pans, kettles, and tilting frying pans through contact heat and liquid cooking; and the iHexagon, a 2024-launched innovation integrating steam, hot air, and microwave technologies across six cooking levels for rapid, precise results. These appliances, along with the ConnectedCooking cloud-based platform for remote management, recipe sharing, software updates, and digital kitchen optimization; accessories; care products; service parts; and comprehensive support services, serve a diverse customer base ranging from restaurants, hotels, and quick-service outlets to large-scale caterers, hospitals, schools, military facilities, and ghost kitchens preparing at least 20 warm dishes per meal. Rational AG produces its iCombi series at its headquarters in Landsberg am Lech, Germany, and iVario units in Wittenheim, France, while operating through seven German branches and 25 international subsidiaries across Europe, Asia, North and South America in over 120 countries, with an export share of approximately 89%. Founded in 1973 by Siegfried Meister, the company, listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange since 2000, recently accelerated sales growth to €312 million in Q3 2025 (up 6% year-over-year) through expanded customer-oriented sales and service functions, including increased CookingLive seminars; launched the iHexagon in selected markets with full rollout planned; developed a combi-steamer tailored for price-conscious Chinese customers starting in 2025; reported nine-month 2025 sales of €918.2 million (up 5%, or 6-7% currency-adjusted); anticipates mid-single-digit full-year growth and 25-26% EBIT margin; and continues investments in production capacity and sustainability at its Wittenheim site.
