HR120 Spec SheetProduct Description
The Foster HR120 is a compact, single-door under counter refrigerator designed to sit beneath a standard worktop where floor space is at a premium. Built in stainless steel with an aluminium interior, it provides 120 litres of accessible chilled storage configured for GN 1/1 compatibility — a practical solution for prep areas, service counters, and back-of-house stations where chilled product needs to be within arm's reach rather than retrieved from a central cold room.
In a working kitchen, under counter refrigeration earns its place by reducing unnecessary movement during service. Keeping dairy products, garnishes, sauces, and prepped items close to the point of use keeps workflow tighter and helps staff maintain pace without repeatedly visiting a walk-in or upright cabinet. The HR120 is rated to operate in ambient temperatures up to 40°C, which means performance remains consistent in the warmer conditions common in busy kitchens — particularly useful when the unit is positioned near cooking equipment or in areas with limited ventilation.
A few points worth noting from an operational standpoint:
- Front-breathing refrigeration system allows built-in or enclosed placement without rear clearance
- Rear roller castors and front levelling bolts make positioning and routine cleaning access straightforward
- Stainless steel exterior handles the daily knocks and wipe-downs of a commercial kitchen reliably
- Rated for dairy temperature ranges, making it well suited to coffee stations, pastry sections, and prep counters
- A energy rating supports lower running costs across continuous 24-hour operation
This unit is best suited to smaller operations or supplementary cold storage roles — a café, sandwich bar, hotel breakfast station, or as an additional unit alongside larger refrigeration in a busier kitchen. It is not intended as the sole refrigeration where high-volume cycling and greater capacity are required. For sites with heavier throughput demands, a larger upright or multi-door cabinet would be a more appropriate starting point.
If you are working out whether this capacity fits your operation or how it sits within an existing kitchen layout, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.

HR120 Spec SheetFrequently Asked Questions
- It can work well as primary refrigeration in a very small operation with modest throughput — a coffee counter or small sandwich bar, for example. However, if you are cycling product frequently or storing for a full day's service, the 120-litre capacity may feel limiting, and a larger upright cabinet would give you more headroom.
- Yes — the front-breathing refrigeration system is specifically designed for enclosed or built-in placement, so rear clearance is not required. You should ensure there is adequate ventilation at the front grille and that the unit is accessible for routine cleaning and servicing.
- The HR120 runs on a standard single-phase supply, so no specialist electrical installation is typically required. It is worth confirming the socket position relative to your intended installation point before fitting, particularly if the unit is going into an enclosed counter.
