Commercial refrigerators are an essential component of any food service business, as they keep perishable items fresh and safe for consumption.

Whether you own a restaurant, cafe, bakery, bar, supermarket, or commercial kitchen, it’s imperative that you choose the ideal refrigerator to suit your business needs.

Upright Solid Door Refrigerators

Upright solid door refrigerators are a popular choice for businesses that need to store a large volume of food.

The main benefit of these refrigerators is their efficiency. Thick solid doors are designed to keep food at a consistent temperature, making food and stock much less likely to spoil, and keeping operating costs low.

Solid door freezers and fridges range from 1 door to 3 door units, and are perfect for keeping ingredients fresh in restaurants and commercial kitchens.

Upright Glass Display Refrigerators

Upright glass display refrigerators are similar to solid door refrigerators, but they have a glass door that allows users to see the contents of the fridge.

These refrigerators are often used in supermarkets, convenience stores, and other retail outlets, displaying a range of perishable items such as drinks, meat and dairy, fresh produce, sandwiches, frozen goods, prepared foods, and more.

Glass display refrigerators allow customers to see the items on offer, which can help to increase sales.

They are also energy efficient and can maintain a consistent temperature, which helps to keep food fresh and safe for consumption.

Cake Display Fridge

Cake display cabinets, also known as refrigerated displays or sandwich displays, are used to store and display perishable items such as cakes, sandwiches, and other foods. Cabinets such as these are most often used in cafes, bakeries, cafeterias, and more.

Featuring glass sliding or swinging doors that allow staff members to easily see and access food items, and glass faces that allow customers to easily see products on display.

Cake display fridges are normally placed by the checkout area, which increases sales and makes it easy to entice customers to purchase a tasty treat.

Workbench Refrigerators

Workbench refrigerators are ideal for busy commercial kitchens as they feature a flat surface on top which can increase work bench space.

This is especially handy for kitchens that are short on space and need to make most of the room available to them.

A workbench refrigerator can both store ingredients and act as a work space. Items are easily accessible by staff while they work which improves efficiency and productivity of the kitchen.

Underbench Refrigerators

Similarly to a workbench refrigerator, an underbench fridge can squeeze into a tight spot in your commercial kitchen and increase storage capacity of ingredients and perishable items. This is ideal for kitchens where space may be limited, such as a small cafe or food truck for example.

Unlike a workbench fridge however, an underbench fridge, as the name implies, slots under an existing work bench.

These compact cabinets can be fitted with either a solid door or glass door, depending on the user’s needs.

Blast Chillers

Blast chillers are a popular addition to any commercial kitchen as they are specially designed to rapidly cool down hot food to a safe temperature for storage. Their rapid cooling systems blow cooled air over the hot food, which prevents the growth of bacteria and other contaminants.

This is especially useful for restaurants and other food service providers that need to keep food fresh and safe for consumption.

Bar Fridges

Bar fridges are small, compact refrigerators that are designed for use in bars, pubs, and other similar environments. These fridges are typically used to store drinks and other perishable items, and are available in a range of sizes to suit different needs.

One of the main benefits of bar fridges is their compact size, which makes them easy to fit into small spaces. They are also energy efficient and can maintain a consistent temperature, which helps to keep drinks and other items fresh and cool.

Bakery Refrigerators

Bakery refrigerators are used in bakeries, cafeterias, restaurants, fast food outlets, and other food service establishments that serve fresh baked goods.

These fridges are used to store dough, cakes, and other perishable items, and are available in a range of sizes and configurations to suit different needs.

Chest Freezers

Commercial chest freezers are large horizontal cabinets that are commonly used in commercial kitchens, cafes, cafeterias, and fast food outlets. Their main benefit is that they are perfect for storing a large volume of frozen goods.

They are also energy efficient and can maintain a consistent temperature, which helps to keep frozen items fresh and safe for consumption for long periods of time.

Combination Fridge Freezer

Combination fridge freezers are commercial refrigerators that feature both a refrigeration compartment and a freezer compartment, which allows users to store both chilled and frozen goods in the same unit.

These refrigerators are often used in commercial kitchens and other food service environments, and are available in a range of sizes to suit different needs.

One of the main benefits of combination fridge freezers is their versatility, as they allow users to store both chilled and frozen goods in the same unit, which saves a business owner from having to buy two separate units and deal with the handling, positioning, and maintenance of both cabinets.

Dry Aging Cabinets

Ideal for butchers, delicatessens, and other food establishments that offer high quality meat, dry aging cabinets are specifically designed to store meat and allow it to dry out and age. These cabinets maintain a controlled environment, temperature, and humidity level to allow meat to age properly.

Ice Storage Boxes

Ice storage boxes are large commercial refrigerators specifically designed for storing ice. These are an essential component for businesses that rely on ice for drinks and other purposes. These boxes are typically used in bars, restaurants, and other food service environments, and are available in a range of sizes to suit different needs.
