Sterling Pro SPU303-6D 368Ltr Refrigerated Counter 6 Drawers

The Sterling Pro SPU303-6D is a six-drawer undermounted refrigerated counter designed to keep fresh and chilled ingredients at safe working temperatures directly below your prep surface. With 368 litres of internal chilled capacity distributed across six drawers, it gives kitchen teams direct access to ingredients without the need to open large cabinet doors or move away from the prep line. The generous counter surface above — running to over 1,350mm — means the unit earns its floor space twice over.

In a working kitchen environment, drawer-style refrigeration earns its keep during busy service periods. Drawers allow staff to locate and retrieve ingredients quickly, with each pull limiting the amount of cold air lost compared with a full door opening. This supports more consistent temperature retention across the shift and reduces the recovery demand on the refrigeration system. The stainless steel construction throughout is practical for a prep environment — robust under daily use and straightforward to keep clean to food hygiene standards.

From an operational standpoint, this type of unit is well suited to kitchens where prep workflow and speed of service are closely linked:

• Six individual drawers allow ingredient segregation by section or menu category
• Undermounted design keeps the refrigeration below worktop height, freeing vertical space
• Stainless steel construction supports thorough cleaning and meets commercial hygiene requirements
• Environmentally considerate refrigerant choice helps manage running costs over the unit's working life
• Large prep surface above suits mise en place, assembly, or portioning workflows

Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type, though it is worth confirming your available floor space and electrical supply before ordering. The unit requires a standard single-phase connection and adequate clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation — insufficient airflow will affect refrigeration efficiency and the working life of the compressor. Positioning should also allow reasonable access for routine condenser cleaning, which is easy to overlook in a busy kitchen but important for long-term performance.

This counter is well suited to small to medium commercial kitchens — cafés, bistros, hotel prep kitchens, and similar operations where prep volume is steady and worktop space is at a premium. For higher-volume sites handling significant daily throughput across multiple sections, a larger or more heavily specified model may be a better long-term fit. Equally, operations with lighter refrigeration demands may find a two- or three-drawer configuration more appropriate.
