Polar G-Series Double Door Upright Fridge White 1152Ltr

The Polar G-Series double door upright fridge is a large-format reach-in refrigeration cabinet designed for commercial kitchens that need to hold substantial volumes of chilled produce, dairy, and prepared food at consistent, safe temperatures. With a usable capacity of 1152 litres across a 2/1 GN double configuration, it is built to serve kitchens where fridge space is a genuine operational constraint rather than an afterthought.

Forced-air circulation is the key to reliable performance in a busy environment. Rather than relying on passive cold air settlement, the system actively moves chilled air around every shelf level, which matters when doors are being opened repeatedly during a service period. The cabinet is rated for ambient environments up to climate class 5, making it a practical choice for kitchens that run hot — a common consideration in busy cooking environments that is often overlooked when selecting refrigeration.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the G-Series is straightforward to work with:

• Adjustable shelving supports flexible storage layouts for different produce types and container sizes
• Self-closing lockable doors help maintain temperature and support basic security requirements
• Front-mounted digital controller allows quick temperature checks without interrupting workflow
• Automatic defrost reduces the maintenance burden on kitchen staff
• Heavy-duty castors allow repositioning for cleaning without requiring additional equipment

Installation requires adequate clearance on all sides for ventilation — this is a unit of considerable size and weight, and placement should be planned carefully before delivery. The painted steel exterior is durable under normal commercial use, though it warrants the same routine care as any painted surface in a kitchen environment. The R600a refrigerant used is low global-warming-potential, which contributes to the cabinet's B energy rating and lower ongoing running costs relative to older refrigerant types.

This cabinet is well suited to mid-to-large kitchens — hotels, contract catering operations, busy restaurants, and pub kitchens with high daily throughput. It offers more holding capacity than a single-door upright whilst stopping short of a full walk-in solution. For smaller operations, a single-door model may be more appropriate; for very high-volume sites with significant storage demands, a larger or multi-unit configuration is worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this cabinet fits your kitchen layout or service volume, our team is happy to work through the details with you before you commit.
