Furnish your kitchen with a counter fridge from Maxima. Stainless steel work surfaces can be put to use in any kitchen. They’re even nicer to work on when all your frozen ingredients are right at hand. After all, a good recipe starts with two things: fresh ingredients and an ergonomic workstation. Why not combine them in a professional counter fridge?

What is a counter fridge and what do you use it for?

Delicious meals taste best when made with fresh ingredients. In a professional kitchen, you want to keep everything fresh for as long as possible. A counter fridge is the best all-in-one workstation in to help you achieve that. 

Because a counter fridge combines a work surface with a refrigerated section, your products will stay fresh until the very last moment. Sandwiches, salads, fish and even ice creams are just a few examples of foods you can prepare perfectly at this flexible workstation. Kitchens are often warm environments and not always the best place to prepare sandwiches, salads, fish or ice cream. These are also dishes that can often be made in front of customers at many catering establishments. This gives you the flexibility to arrange your workspace more efficiently, and save yourself from having to walk back and forth to the kitchen.

Is a counter fridge suitable for my catering business?

Everyone can use a hygienic workstation for preparing meals. And of course a good refrigeration system is helpful as well. Thanks to the various practical formats, you should always be able to find a good place. In additional, you can also order drawer sets and, in this way, adapt the counter fridge to your specific need.

Are there several places in your restaurant where you can make use of a countertop or table? Then we advise you to choose one of the counter fridges on wheels. The wheels make it extremely flexible and versatile. You can quickly move it if the layout of your kitchen needs to change. It’s also handy when cleaning the floor.

If you work with many different chilled ingredients, you could also consider a saladette . This provides you with an area on your worktop for GN trays to store your individual ingredients. For pizzerias, we even have a specially designed pizza prep fridge . These are even available with special drawers for rising dough. The granite worktop can be combined with a saladette or top-mounted refrigerated display.

A counter fridge is also a useful addition to the kitchen for dishes that have a refrigerated preparation, but are then reheated, baked or heated. They are often found in the following catering establishments, among others:

  • cafes
  • pizzerias
  • salad bars
  • dessert bars
  • sandwich shops
  • ice cream parlours
  • shawarma restaurants

What are the features of a Maxima counter fridge?

Maxima's counter fridges are made from stainless steel. The advantages of stainless steel are its sturdiness and that dirt and bacteria are kept to a minimum because the smooth surface makes it easy to clean. Each Maxima counter fridge also has the following features:

  • Zanussi compressor
  • cooling from 0-10⁰C
  • protective insulation layer
  • fan cooling keeps every area equally cool
  • temperature can be set and read digitally
  • cooling compartments with adjustable shelves
  • stainless steel construction with stainless steel worktop
  • reduced ice formation, thanks to the special cooling cycle

What different counter fridges are there and what should I look out for?

The main differences are, of course, the dimensions and the capacity – either two or three refrigerated sections. For example, the largest three-door fridge has a volume of 465 litres. The smallest two-door model offers 257 litres of storage space. One shelf is supplied per refrigeration section as standard. Of course, you can order more shelves from us. For extra accessories, there are also drawer sets available. These can be easily ordered by selecting them on the product page before placing the counter fridge in the shopping cart.

It's good to know in what ambient temperature the refrigerator will be placed. Some counter fridges may not exceed 32⁰C, while the maximum for others is 43⁰C. Cooling in a warm environment naturally requires more energy. Since these units are on for most of the day, this is something you also need to consider. Finally, some refrigerators can cool the contents between 0-10°C and others between -2-10°C.
