£58.83(£70.60 inc VAT)
The Bonzer 12574-03 is an in-counter elevator-style cup dispenser with a 600mm plastic tube, designed to sit flush within a counter top and present cups at working height as each one is taken. The spring-loaded elevator mechanism rises automatically, keeping the next cup consistently accessible without staff intervention. A single tube covers rim diameters from 62mm to 98mm, accommodating a wide range of standard disposable cup sizes through an adjustable spring and silicone gasket arrangement.
In busy beverage service environments — coffee shops, café counters, self-service stations, and front-of-house drink points — this type of dispenser removes the need to handle cup stacks manually during service. The longer 600mm tube holds a greater quantity of cups than the shorter 450mm alternative, which reduces the frequency of top-ups during a peak period. The plastic construction keeps the unit lightweight and the overall cost modest, making it a practical choice where multiple dispenser positions are needed across a counter run.
- Single tube adjusts to fit cups with rim diameters from 62mm to 98mm
- 600mm tube length provides higher cup capacity between refills
- Spring-loaded elevator keeps cups presented consistently at counter height
- Silicone gasket supports a secure, rattle-free fit for varying cup profiles
- NSF approved and designed and manufactured in the UK
Installation requires a 120mm circular cut-out in the counter top. The unit drops in and is retained by the top ring, so no tools are needed once the hole is cut. It is worth confirming counter depth before ordering — the 600mm tube needs sufficient clearance below the worktop surface, and the shorter 450mm version is available where undercounter space is restricted.
This dispenser suits cafés, canteens, beverage bars, and any counter where a tidy, accessible cup presentation is needed. It is well suited to operations running a single cup size or a narrow range of compatible sizes. For high-volume sites considering multiple dispensers or integrated counter builds, it is worth having a conversation first to confirm tube length and cut-out positioning works within the planned layout.
£58.80(£70.56 inc VAT)
The Bonzer 12574-01 is an in-counter elevator cup dispenser with a 450mm plastic tube, designed to keep disposable cups within easy reach at the point of service. The elevator mechanism uses an adjustable spring-loaded pusher and silicone gasket, which allows the dispenser to accommodate a range of cup rim diameters from 62mm to 98mm — a single unit covering five common cup sizes. This makes it a practical choice where cup specifications vary or are likely to change over time.
In busy beverage service environments, having cups dispensed cleanly and at counter height reduces fumbling during peak periods and helps maintain a tidy service point. The elevator design presents the top cup at a consistent level as the stack depletes, which keeps service smooth without staff needing to reach into the unit. The plastic construction keeps costs down without meaningfully compromising durability in typical counter use.
Practical advantages in day-to-day service include:
- Single-unit coverage across five cup sizes, reducing the need for multiple dispensers
- Spring-loaded elevator maintains consistent cup presentation throughout the stack
- Silicone gasket helps protect cup rims and reduces contamination risk
- In-counter installation keeps the worktop clear and supports a tidy service layout
- NSF approved, supporting compliance in food service environments
Installation requires a 120mm cut-out in the counter surface, with the top ring sitting at 153mm diameter. This is a straightforward counter-drop-in unit with no electrical or plumbing requirements. It is worth confirming your counter depth and material before cutting, as the 450mm tube length determines how many cups can be stored in a single load. For sites with higher throughput or deeper counters, a 600mm version is available in the range.
This dispenser is well suited to cafés, staff canteens, quick-service restaurants, and self-service beverage stations where counter space is limited and a clean, hygienic cup presentation matters. It is a cost-effective choice for operators who want reliable everyday performance without unnecessary complexity. If you are unsure which tube length or cup size range best suits your setup, the team is happy to help you work it out before you order.
£106.00(£127.20 inc VAT)
The Bonzer 12577-02 is a stainless steel in-counter elevator cup dispenser designed to sit flush within a counter cutout. A spring-loaded mechanism rises as each cup is taken, presenting the next cup at counter height automatically. The adjustable spring tension and silicone gasket allow the unit to accommodate cup rim diameters across a broad range within a single tube — a practical advantage wherever more than one cup format is used or where formats change between service periods.
In continuous beverage service — coffee shops, hotel breakfast stations, self-service counters, staff canteens — a correctly set elevator dispenser keeps things moving without staff having to reach into a container or lift a cabinet door. The 600mm tube holds a useful quantity of cups beneath the counter, reducing how often the dispenser needs reloading during a busy service. Stainless steel holds up well in the humid conditions typical of counter environments, where plastic alternatives tend to discolour and degrade over time. The tube removes cleanly for washing, which matters in any operation where hygiene standards are audited.
- Adjustable spring tension accommodates a wide cup rim diameter range in one unit
- Silicone gasket protects cup rims and maintains a stable, secure fit throughout the stack
- Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and cleans down quickly between services
- Flush in-counter installation keeps the countertop surface unobstructed
- NSF approved for commercial food service use
Installation requires a counter cutout of the correct diameter, and this unit is designed exclusively for in-counter fitting — it is not suitable for surface mounting. Counter material and below-counter clearance should both be confirmed before ordering, as the 600mm tube length needs adequate depth beneath the worktop. Where under-counter space is more limited, a shorter tube length is available within the Bonzer range.
This dispenser is well suited to cafés, quick-service restaurants, hotel beverage counters, and similar operations where cup access speed and counter hygiene both matter. It works best on moderate to high throughput counters running continuous or near-continuous service. If you are planning a multi-position installation or want to confirm which tube length suits your counter configuration, we are happy to talk it through before you place an order.
£106.00(£127.20 inc VAT)
The Bonzer 12577-01 is a stainless steel in-counter elevator cup dispenser designed for permanent installation into a counter surface. A spring-loaded mechanism lifts the cup stack progressively as each cup is removed, so the next cup is always presented cleanly at counter level. An adjustable spring and silicone gasket give the unit compatibility across a broad rim diameter range — 62mm to 98mm — which makes it genuinely practical for operators running more than one cup size from a single position.
In busy coffee shops, self-service canteens and quick-service restaurants, this type of dispenser earns its place by keeping cups consistently accessible throughout peak periods without staff needing to intervene or top up mid-service. Because the stack sits below the counter surface and cups are dispensed one at a time, they stay protected from counter splashes, dust and unnecessary handling — a real hygiene benefit in high-footfall environments.
- Spring-loaded elevator maintains a consistent dispensing height as the stack depletes
- Wide rim diameter range reduces the need for a separate dispenser per cup size
- In-counter position clears the work surface and supports a tidier service layout
- Stainless steel construction is straightforward to clean and built for sustained daily use
- NSF approval supports compliance in regulated food service environments
Installation requires a 120mm circular cutout in the counter, so this unit is only appropriate where that modification is feasible. The 450mm tube suits standard counter depths; where a higher cup capacity is needed, a longer 600mm version is available in the range. Before ordering, it is worth confirming your cup rim diameter sits within the 62–98mm range, as not all cup profiles will be compatible.
This dispenser is well suited to cafés, quick-service outlets and self-service counters where cups are drawn consistently throughout the day. If you are fitting multiple positions or want to confirm compatibility with your counter setup, we are happy to talk it through.
£112.00(£134.40 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C2210C is an in-counter cup dispenser designed to sit flush within a cut-out in the counter surface, keeping cups accessible at self-serve drink stations, front-of-house service points, and staff canteen beverage areas without cluttering the worktop. It accepts paper, plastic, and foam cups with a rim diameter in the 73–94mm range and uses an elevator mechanism to present one cup at a time.
In fast-moving environments — cafés, quick-service restaurants, grab-and-go outlets, and canteens — this style of dispenser helps keep the drink station tidy and reduces the likelihood of customers handling multiple cups before taking one. The one-at-a-time feed is a straightforward hygiene and presentation benefit that pays off during busy service periods when drink points see heavy use.
A practical aspect of the EZ-Fit design is the set of interchangeable gaskets, which allow the unit to be adjusted to suit different cup sizes within the compatible range. This is useful where cup stock changes seasonally or where a site runs slightly different sizes across day parts without wanting to swap out the dispenser unit itself.
- Flush in-counter fit keeps cup stacks below the counter surface
- Interchangeable gaskets allow cup size adjustments without replacing the unit
- One-at-a-time elevator mechanism reduces handling at the drink point
- Compatible with paper, plastic, and foam cup formats in the 73–94mm rim range
- No electrical or water connections required
Installation requires a counter cut-out sized to the dispenser body. The unit is not suitable for surface mounting. It is worth confirming counter material and thickness before ordering — solid surface, stone, or tiled counters will typically need specialist cutting. There are no electrical or plumbing requirements, which keeps installation straightforward in most cases.
This dispenser is well suited to low- to mid-volume sites running one cup size or a narrow range of sizes. Operations dispensing a wider variety of cup formats simultaneously, or those with significantly higher throughput demands, may find a multi-position or larger-format setup more practical.
If you would like to talk through counter compatibility or cup size suitability before ordering, the team is happy to help.
£139.00(£166.80 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C3200CF is an in-counter cup dispenser designed to hold and dispense 6 to 10oz cups at a fixed beverage station. It sits flush within the counter surface, presenting cups at an upward angle so each one is cleanly accessible to staff or self-serve customers without disturbing the stack below. It is a straightforward solution to a practical problem: loose cup stacks on a worktop are untidy, prone to being knocked, and harder to manage hygienically during a busy service.
In environments such as hospital catering points, staff canteens, coffee counters, and self-serve drink stations, controlled cup dispensing makes a tangible difference. The angled presentation means only the leading cup is touched during service, which supports basic hygiene discipline without requiring any deliberate change in staff behaviour. It is a quiet operational improvement rather than a dramatic one, but it holds up well over the course of a busy day.
- Adjustable collar accommodates a range of cup rim diameters across the 6–10oz size band
- Patented mounting ring secures the dispenser firmly in the counter without additional fixings
- Interchangeable springs can be matched to specific cup types to reduce jamming or double-dispensing
- Stainless steel construction is durable and easy to wipe down between services
- In-counter position keeps the counter surface clear and removes the risk of stacks being knocked
Installation requires a counter cut-out to accept the mounting ring. For most fabricated or solid-surface counters this is a routine task, but it is worth confirming cut-out dimensions with your counter installer or fabricator before ordering. This dispenser is intended for fixed, permanent beverage stations and is not suited to mobile or temporary setups.
This model is well suited to operations using a consistent single cup size across their service. Where a station needs to handle more than one cup size simultaneously, a twin or multi-tube configuration would be more practical.
If you want to confirm that your cup profile falls within the collar range, or have questions about what the counter cut-out involves, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.
£117.00(£140.40 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C2410C is an in-counter cup dispenser designed to sit flush within a counter cut-out, storing cups below the worktop and presenting them at the rim for clean, one-at-a-time dispensing. It accepts paper, plastic and foam cups across a broad rim diameter range, and the EZ-Fit name refers to a practical interchangeable gasket system — four pre-cut gaskets are included, allowing the unit to be reconfigured for different cup sizes without replacing the dispenser itself.
In a working beverage station, keeping cups stored below the counter makes a meaningful difference to surface organisation. Cups stay protected from airborne contamination and incidental contact, while remaining accessible to staff or self-serve customers without unnecessary handling. The impact-resistant construction holds up well in the repetitive, daily-use conditions of a commercial environment.
- Interchangeable gaskets allow cup size changes without replacing the unit
- Flush in-counter fit keeps the worktop clear and the service point tidy
- Compatible with paper, plastic and foam cup formats
- Single-handed dispensing reduces contact and supports hygiene at self-serve points
- Straightforward gasket changeover requires no specialist tools
Installation requires a counter cut-out sized to the dispenser's footprint. Before fitting, it is worth confirming counter thickness and material to ensure a clean, secure installation. The rim diameter range of 73 to 121mm suits most standard cup formats, but it is worth checking this against your current cup stock before ordering. For operations using cups outside this range, or where a higher-capacity tube is needed to reduce refill frequency, other configurations exist within the San Jamar range.
This dispenser is well suited to cafés, food-to-go counters, staff canteens, and self-service beverage stations where a clean, organised cup point matters. If you are setting up a new station or are unsure which dispenser configuration fits your cup format and counter setup, we are happy to talk it through with you.
£105.00(£126.00 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C2410C18 is an in-counter cup dispenser that sits flush within a counter cut-out, storing cups below the worktop and presenting them at the rim for clean, one-at-a-time dispensing. The 18-inch tube format suits a range of counter depths commonly found in cafeterias, staff canteens, quick-service restaurants and self-service beverage stations. It accepts paper, plastic and foam cups across a broad rim diameter range, which makes it a practical option where cup specifications vary or change periodically across service points.
The defining feature of this model is the EZ-Fit gasket system. Four interchangeable pre-cut gaskets are included, allowing the dispenser to be reconfigured for different cup sizes without replacing the unit. In working environments where cup suppliers change or beverage formats are updated, this avoids the cost and disruption of swapping out hardware each time. The impact-resistant plastic construction holds up well in counter environments where the occasional knock is inevitable.
Day-to-day operational advantages include:
- Flush counter installation keeps cups hygienic and the service area uncluttered
- One-cup dispensing at the rim reduces waste and spillage at the service point
- Interchangeable gaskets support a wide rim diameter range from a single unit
- Compatible with paper, plastic and foam cup formats
- Impact-resistant construction suits the demands of a working counter
Installation requires a counter with sufficient depth to accommodate the dispenser tube below the surface. The cut-out size should be confirmed against the unit before any counter work is carried out, and the counter material needs to be appropriate for the mounting hardware. For very high-throughput operations or unusually thick counter builds, it is worth checking that the tube length and cup capacity will comfortably meet peak service demand before committing.
This model is well suited to medium-volume operations that need flexibility across cup sizes without investing in multiple fixed dispensers. Sites with a dedicated, high-volume cup format and very fast service turnovers may find a purpose-built fixed-size dispenser offers better capacity for their specific needs.
If you want to confirm that the rim diameter range or tube length will work with your specific cups and counter, the team is glad to help you check compatibility before you go ahead.
£88.94(£106.73 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C5450C18 Sentry is an 18-inch in-counter cup dispenser designed for fixed installation into a countertop or serving station. It accepts cups with rim diameters in the 79–114mm range, making it suitable for a broad spread of standard disposable cup sizes used in cafés, canteens, fast food operations, and self-service beverage stations. The dispenser sits flush within the counter surface, keeping the cup stack contained, hygienic, and out of reach of general customer handling.
In a busy service environment, consistent cup dispensing matters more than it might appear. The Sentry's adjustable lever mechanism is engineered to release cups one at a time cleanly, which reduces the frustration of cups jamming, double-dispensing, or arriving at the counter crushed. The adjustment can be made even with cups already loaded, which is a practical advantage during a service period when stopping to clear and reload the dispenser is not realistic.
From an operational and hygiene standpoint, the design includes a contamination guard that limits debris entering the tube from above, and the tube itself is a translucent blue material — a recognised food safety colour — which allows staff to carry out a quick visual check on cup levels and cleanliness without dismantling anything.
- Trim ring around the counter opening discourages customer tampering
- Lever adjustment accessible during live service without unloading cups
- One-at-a-time dispensing reduces cup damage and waste
- Translucent blue tube supports quick hygiene and stock-level checks
- Compatible with a wide rim diameter range, reducing the need for multiple dispensers
This model is well suited to counters with a moderate to high throughput of hot or cold drinks — coffee shops, hospital or workplace canteens, and fast casual restaurant service stations being typical environments. For very high-volume sites where multiple cup sizes are in simultaneous use, it is worth considering whether a surface-mounted or multi-unit configuration would better serve the operation.
If you are unsure whether the C5450C18 is the right fit for your counter depth, cup stock, or service layout, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£139.00(£166.80 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C3200CV is an in-counter cup dispenser designed to hold and present 6 to 10oz cups at counter level through a fixed cut-out in the service surface. Rather than sitting on top of the counter, the unit sits within it, keeping cups accessible while leaving the work surface clear. It is constructed from 304 stainless steel, which holds up well to the regular cleaning and hygiene requirements of a commercial beverage station.
In practice, this type of dispenser is well suited to moderate-volume service points — staff canteens, café self-serve stations, water or juice counters, and similar environments where cups need to be within easy reach without cluttering the counter. The adjustable collar accommodates the rim diameter variation that exists across different cup brands, reducing the likelihood of cups dropping through or jamming mid-service. Spring selection allows the unit to be configured appropriately for either paper or polystyrene cups, which behave differently under spring tension and are worth considering when specifying.
- Adjustable collar reduces jamming and drop-through across different cup brands
- Spring options allow configuration for paper or polystyrene cup types
- Stainless steel construction supports daily cleaning and hygiene compliance
- In-counter position keeps cups accessible without occupying surface space
- Patented mounting ring locks securely into the counter cut-out
Installation requires a counter cut-out to the correct diameter, which should be confirmed against the dispenser specification before ordering — counters vary in material and thickness and it is worth checking compatibility first. The unit is not suitable for wall or overhead mounting; it is designed specifically for in-counter use. For higher-volume sites or operations dispensing larger cup formats, a higher-capacity model may be a more practical fit.
This dispenser is a practical choice for light to moderate service environments where a tidy, hygienic cup presentation is needed in a compact footprint. If you are unsure whether it suits your counter setup or cup range, we are happy to talk it through.
£112.00(£134.40 inc VAT)
The San Jamar Euro EZ-Fit is an in-counter cup dispenser designed to sit flush within a countertop cut-out, presenting cups at surface level for clean, one-at-a-time dispensing. It handles paper, plastic, and foam cups across a rim diameter range of 73–94mm, with interchangeable gaskets allowing operators to switch between cup sizes without replacing the unit itself.
In a café, bar, or quick-service counter environment, keeping the worktop clear is a genuine operational advantage. The in-counter format removes the dispenser from the working surface entirely, which reduces clutter and makes the counter easier to wipe down during service. One-at-a-time dispensing helps prevent double-pulls and the cup waste that tends to accumulate over a busy shift. Staff can retrieve a cup quickly without disturbing the stack, which keeps pace steady during peak periods.
- Accepts paper, plastic, and foam cups within the 73–94mm rim diameter range
- Interchangeable gaskets allow cup format changes without a new unit
- Flush in-counter installation removes the dispenser from the working surface
- One-at-a-time dispensing reduces double-pulls and cup waste
- Impact-resistant construction suited to regular front-of-house use
Installation requires a cut-out in the countertop to the correct diameter. Before ordering, it is worth confirming that your counter has sufficient depth below the surface to accommodate the dispenser body and a full cup stack. Counter thickness and the clearance available underneath are the two details most commonly overlooked at the point of purchase.
This model suits cafés, coffee shops, bars, and quick-service counters with moderate cup throughput and limited counter space. For very high-volume sites dispensing cups continuously throughout the day, a larger-capacity or higher-throughput unit may be a more appropriate fit.
If you would like to talk through whether this dispenser works with your counter setup or cup specification, the team is happy to help before you commit to an order.
£88.94(£106.73 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C5250C18 Euro Sentry is an in-counter cup dispenser designed to present cups one at a time at the point of dispensing, keeping the counter clear while maintaining a consistent, hygienic supply. It accommodates cups with rim diameters in the 62–92mm range and sits flush within a counter cutout, making it a practical choice for self-service beverage stations, staffed coffee counters, and front-of-house drink service areas.
In busy service environments, reliable cup dispensing is often overlooked until it causes problems — cups jamming, being handled unnecessarily, or contaminated by debris settling into an open stack. The Euro Sentry addresses these issues with an enclosed tube design and an adjustable dispensing mechanism that can be set and fine-tuned even with cups already loaded, reducing service interruptions during peak periods. The dispenser presents one cup at a time, which supports consistent hygiene practice across self-service and assisted service alike.
Practical operational advantages include:
- Adjustable dispensing levers that can be set without unloading the dispenser
- Enclosed tube with a contamination guard that limits debris entry from above
- A transparent tube section allowing quick visual stock checks without opening the unit
- A trim ring that keeps the counter installation neat and discourages tampering
- One-at-a-time dispensing that reduces unnecessary cup handling
Installation requires a counter cutout to the correct diameter for an 18-inch tube unit. The dispenser drops into the counter from above, with the trim ring sitting flush on the surface. No electrical or water connections are needed. It is worth confirming your cup range before ordering — the 62–92mm rim diameter range covers many standard soft drink and hot beverage cups, but cup compatibility should be verified against the specific cup sizes used on your site. For operations using cups outside this range, alternative models are available to suit narrower or wider rim diameters.
This dispenser is well suited to cafés, quick-service restaurants, staff canteens, and any beverage station where a clean counter and hygienic one-at-a-time cup presentation are priorities. For very high-volume sites with rapid cup turnover, it is worth considering a higher-capacity or multi-tube configuration.
If you are fitting out a beverage counter and want to confirm cup compatibility or counter cutout requirements before ordering, our team is happy to help you work through the details.
£88.94(£106.73 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C5250C Euro Sentry is an in-counter cup dispenser designed to sit flush within a counter or serving surface, presenting cups at counter level for clean, controlled dispensing. It accommodates a wide rim diameter range, making it compatible with a broad selection of standard disposable cups commonly used in cafés, canteens, hospital catering, and self-service beverage stations.
In busy service environments, the dispenser's elevator mechanism advances cups automatically as each one is removed, maintaining a consistent presentation without staff intervention. The adjustment mechanism can be set while cups are loaded, which reduces downtime during service if cups are changed between shifts or when switching cup sizes. The dispenser is designed to release one cup at a time, preventing the double-dispensing waste that tends to accumulate over a full service period.
From an operational standpoint, several features make this unit well suited to managed service and food safety-conscious environments:
- Contamination Guard helps prevent debris and airborne particles from entering the tube
- Food Safety Blue transparent tube allows a quick visual check of cup stock and cleanliness without disassembly
- Adjustable levers engineered to avoid marking or deforming cups during dispensing or loading
- Trim ring discourages tampering in self-service settings
- Tool-free adjustment is possible with cups already loaded, reducing service interruption
Installation requires a cut-out in the counter surface to the appropriate diameter. The unit drops into position and is held by the trim ring, so the counter surface material and thickness should be considered before ordering. No electrical or water connection is required.
This dispenser is a practical choice for self-service beverage points, front-of-house counters, and staff canteens where hygiene, neat presentation, and minimal maintenance are priorities. It suits moderate-volume sites well. For very high-throughput operations running multiple cup sizes or dispensing points simultaneously, it is worth discussing whether a different configuration would serve better.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your counter setup or cup range, we are happy to talk it through before you order.
£87.59(£105.11 inc VAT)
The San Jamar C5450C Sentry is an in-counter cup dispenser designed for front-of-house beverage stations, self-serve drink areas, and cafeteria counters where neat, hygienic cup presentation matters. It fits flush into a counter cutout and holds a column of cups in a protected tube, dispensing one cup at a time from the bottom. The unit is compatible with cups in the 79–114mm rim diameter range, which covers a broad spread of standard catering cups.
In busy service environments, the value of a well-designed cup dispenser is easy to underestimate. A poor dispenser jams, dispenses two at a time, or leaves cups exposed to the counter environment. The Sentry addresses these issues directly. The adjustable lever mechanism — San Jamar's Lifetime Lever system — is engineered to release a single cup cleanly without marring the rim or sides, which matters particularly where cups are going directly into customers' hands. Adjustment is possible even with the dispenser loaded, so staff do not need to empty it to recalibrate for a different cup batch.
From an operational standpoint, the practical advantages include:
- One-at-a-time dispensing reduces waste and prevents customers taking multiples
- Contamination Guard keeps the cup stack protected from airborne debris and counter spillage
- Food Safety Blue transparent tube allows a quick visual check of cup levels without opening the unit
- Trim ring finish integrates cleanly into counter surfaces and discourages customer interference with the mechanism
- Tool-free lever adjustment simplifies changeover when switching cup sizes
Installation requires a counter cutout sized to accept the 23.5-inch tube. It is worth confirming counter depth and material before ordering, as the unit sits proud of the underside and needs adequate clearance below. This dispenser suits lighter to moderate service volumes — higher-footfall sites running very large cup counts may benefit from a gravity-feed or higher-capacity model.
This model is well suited to cafés, hotel breakfast stations, staff canteens, and self-serve drink counters where a tidy, hygienic cup presentation is a priority. If you are fitting out multiple stations or are unsure which rim diameter range matches your current cup stock, it is worth having a conversation with us before ordering.
