Foster Reach-In-Refrigerators

The Foster XR600H is a single-door, upright refrigerator designed for general-purpose chilled storage in commercial kitchens. It sits within Foster's XR range — a line that balances everyday value with the consistent build quality Foster is known for across the professional foodservice sector. The cabinet is built throughout in stainless steel and uses fan-assisted cooling to circulate air evenly across all shelf levels.

In a working kitchen, the moments that test a refrigerator most are prep shifts, service, and restocking — periods when the door is opened repeatedly and the cabinet has to hold a stable temperature under continuous demand. The fan-assisted system and well-insulated cabinet body are designed to sustain consistent conditions through those periods. Auto defrost operates in the background, removing a routine maintenance task and reducing the risk of ice build-up affecting long-term performance.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the XR600H offers a number of practical advantages:

• Adjustable gastronorm-compatible shelving supports flexible storage layouts
• Replaceable door gaskets help extend the working life of the unit
• Stainless steel interior and exterior is straightforward to clean and maintain
• Auto defrost reduces manual intervention and keeps the unit running efficiently
• Single-phase supply suits most commercial kitchen installations without modification

Before ordering, it is worth confirming that adequate floor space and ventilation clearances are available. The refrigeration system needs sufficient room to dissipate heat — typically to the sides and rear — so positioning flush against walls or within tight alcoves without clearance should be avoided. The unit runs on a standard single-phase supply, which means no specialist electrical work is required in most kitchens.

The XR600H is well suited to small and medium-sized operations: cafés, pub kitchens, small restaurants, hotel prep areas, and similar sites where a dependable upright refrigerator is needed for everyday chilled storage. It is a practical choice where both floor space and budget are considerations. For higher-volume kitchens where throughput demands greater cabinet capacity, a more heavily specified model is likely to be a better fit.

If you would like to talk through whether this cabinet suits your kitchen layout or service pattern, the team is happy to help you work it out.

The Foster XR1300H is a large-capacity two-door upright refrigerator built for commercial kitchens that need substantial chilled storage accessible from the preparation area. Rather than managing several smaller cabinets across the kitchen, this unit consolidates bulk chilled stock into a single freestanding cabinet — a practical arrangement for busy operations where space efficiency and consistent stock rotation both matter.

Consistent temperature performance across a full load is what separates a reliable refrigeration cabinet from one that causes problems during service. The XR1300H uses fan-assisted cooling to maintain an even temperature throughout the interior, whether the cabinet is lightly stocked early in the morning or fully loaded after a delivery. Auto defrost operates without manual intervention, which removes a routine task from the kitchen team during already demanding service periods. The cabinet's insulation is substantial enough to support stable holding even when doors are opened repeatedly at peak times.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the cabinet offers several practical advantages:

• Fan-assisted cooling distributes temperature evenly across a varied, full load
• Auto defrost removes the need for manual defrost routines during service
• Adjustable gastronorm-compatible shelving supports flexible stock organisation
• Replaceable door gaskets help minimise downtime if seals wear over time
• Stainless steel construction is straightforward to clean to commercial hygiene standards

As a freestanding unit, installation is relatively uncomplicated — no remote refrigeration pipework or built-in fit-out is needed. The cabinet does require adequate clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation to function correctly, and a suitable single-phase power supply nearby. Before delivery, it is worth checking access routes, corridor widths, and doorway dimensions carefully, as a cabinet of this size can present real challenges in older premises or kitchens with restricted entry points.

The XR1300H is well suited to mid- to high-volume operations — hotels, contract catering facilities, large restaurants, staff dining, and institutional kitchens — where holding significant chilled stock in a single reliable unit is preferable to splitting storage across several smaller cabinets. For sites with more modest requirements, a single-door or lower-capacity model will likely be a better match. Where a kitchen operates under very high throughput with near-constant door use, it is worth discussing whether a heavier-duty or larger-format alternative would be more appropriate.

If you would like to talk through how this cabinet fits your kitchen layout, service volumes, or existing refrigeration setup, the team is happy to work through the options with you.

The Foster EcoPro G3 EP1440H is a large-capacity double door upright refrigerator designed for commercial kitchens where chilled storage volume is a genuine operational constraint. With 1350 litres of usable interior space, it is built to handle continuous loading, frequent door access, and the sustained temperature demands that come with professional kitchen use across long service periods.

A cabinet of this size earns its place where a single door unit cannot hold sufficient stock to carry a full service without restocking runs. The EcoPro G3 range has a dependable track record in busy commercial environments, holding stable temperatures even as ambient kitchen heat builds during peak service. The Airlines ventilation system improves airflow around the compressor, helping reduce running time and supporting consistent thermal performance throughout the day.

From an operational standpoint, a few features of the G3 range are worth noting:

• The +stayclear condenser resists dust build-up, helping maintain efficiency and reducing the likelihood of condenser-related call-outs over time.
• The PureControl LED display is clear and easy to operate, reducing the risk of temperature setting errors during busy service periods.
• 304 stainless steel is used on doors and covers — the areas subject to the heaviest daily wear and cleaning.
• A helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be pulled away from the wall for cleaning without disconnecting at the socket.
• Cyclopentane foam insulation supports sustained thermal efficiency across the cabinet's working life.

Installation requires adequate floor space for a full-height double door cabinet, along with sufficient rear and top clearance for ventilation. The unit is self-contained and refrigerant-charged, so no remote refrigeration system or external condenser is needed — a standard mains electrical supply is all that is required. For kitchens with restricted ceiling height or tight floor space, it is worth confirming the physical dimensions are workable before ordering. Access routes during delivery are also worth considering given the size of the cabinet.

The EP1440H is well suited to busy restaurants, hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, and large staff catering facilities where chilled storage capacity is under genuine daily pressure. For smaller operations where 1350 litres would consistently be underused, a single door model within the EcoPro G3 range is likely more appropriate. Sites running multiple service periods or very high covers should consider carefully whether this capacity fully meets their needs, or whether additional units would be a more practical approach.

If you are specifying refrigeration for a new kitchen or replacing an existing cabinet, we are glad to talk through whether this model suits your available space, workflow, and service volume before you commit.

The Foster EcoPro G3 EP700H is a single-door upright refrigerator offering 600 litres of usable chilled storage. It sits within Foster's EcoPro G3 cabinet range — a line built with energy efficiency and long-term operational reliability as core engineering priorities rather than afterthoughts. Full stainless steel construction meets the hygiene and robustness standards expected in a working professional kitchen.

Consistent temperature retention under the variable conditions of a busy service is what separates a dependable refrigerator from a source of risk. The G3 uses cyclopentane foam insulation to sustain thermal efficiency throughout the cabinet's working life, which reduces unnecessary compressor cycling during heavy service periods. The +stayclear condenser is designed to resist the grease and dust accumulation that is common in commercial kitchens where airflow around equipment is rarely ideal — this helps maintain efficient running and reduces the likelihood of engineer call-outs to restore performance.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, this cabinet offers several practical advantages:

• A-rated energy performance helps keep electricity running costs down across the cabinet's working life
• PureControl LED controller provides a clear, accurate temperature readout with minimal power draw
• Improved Airlines ventilation reduces compressor running time when ambient kitchen temperatures rise
• 304 stainless steel on doors and contact surfaces holds up well at the points subject to the most daily wear
• Helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be pulled out for cleaning without disconnecting from the socket

Installation is straightforward, but adequate clearance around the condenser is important — the ventilation system needs sufficient airflow to perform as designed. The cabinet is rated for operation in ambient temperatures up to 43°C, making it appropriate for kitchens where proximity to cooking equipment or seasonal heat raises background temperatures. It is worth confirming your available floor space and ventilation conditions before ordering, as positioning the unit in a poorly ventilated recess will limit performance regardless of specification.

This refrigerator suits mid-size operations well — restaurant back-of-house, hotel kitchens, pub kitchens, and contract catering sites where a dependable, energy-conscious upright cabinet is needed without the footprint of a multi-door unit. For high-volume sites with significant chilled goods throughput, a higher-capacity cabinet may be the more practical choice. Where floor space is the primary constraint, a counter or undercounter unit from the same G3 range may be worth considering.

If you are working through your refrigeration requirements and want to talk through which configuration best suits your kitchen's layout and service demands, the team is happy to help.

The Foster HR240 is a two-door under-counter refrigerator offering 240 litres of chilled storage within a compact stainless steel cabinet designed to sit beneath standard worktops. It operates at dairy temperatures and is built for kitchens where floor space is limited but consistent, reliable refrigeration remains a priority.

Under-counter refrigeration earns its keep by placing chilled ingredients at the point of preparation without consuming valuable standing space. The HR240 is rated for ambient temperatures up to 40°C, which gives it practical dependability in warmer kitchen environments where less capable units can drift off temperature during a busy service. Its front-breathing refrigeration system — drawing and expelling air from the front rather than the sides or rear — is one of its more operationally useful features. This allows the cabinet to be installed within an enclosed under-counter run or a built-in configuration without requiring ventilation clearances at the sides or back.

• Front-breathing design suits installation in enclosed under-counter runs
• GN 1/1 compatible interior supports standard gastronorm storage
• Rear roller castors and front levelling bolts allow repositioning and precise levelling
• Aluminium interior is easy to clean and holds up well under daily kitchen use
• A-rated energy classification helps keep running costs manageable across long operating hours

The unit runs from a standard single-phase supply and requires no water connection. The front grille must remain clear for adequate airflow. Before ordering, it is worth confirming that your existing worktop height and run configuration will accommodate the cabinet properly.

The HR240 is well suited to cafés, sandwich bars, pub kitchens, and smaller prep areas where dairy storage is needed close to the bench or pass. It is also commonly used as supplementary refrigeration in larger operations. Where higher capacity or a wider temperature range is required, Foster's upright and multi-door cabinets are worth considering.

If you'd like to talk through whether this cabinet fits your layout or service pattern, our team is happy to help you work it out.

The Foster HR360 is a 360-litre under-counter refrigerator built to hold dairy-temperature stock at the point of preparation. It sits beneath standard preparation benches and is constructed to the build quality expected across Foster's professional refrigeration range, with a stainless steel exterior and aluminium interior.

In working kitchens, under-counter refrigeration carries genuine operational weight. Keeping prep ingredients, dairy lines, and short-rotation stock close to where they're needed reduces unnecessary movement across the kitchen and keeps service running smoothly. The HR360 is well suited to that role. Its front-breathing refrigeration system is a practical advantage in fitted kitchens — it can be installed in enclosed under-counter runs without requiring rear clearance for airflow, which matters on sites where bench runs are tightly planned and access routes are managed carefully. The unit is also rated for operation in warmer ambient conditions, making it a reliable choice for kitchens where temperatures climb during busy service periods.

Features that support day-to-day operation include:

• Front-breathing system allows enclosed under-counter installation without rear clearance
• Climate class 4 rating suits kitchens with elevated ambient temperatures
• Roller castors to the rear and levelling bolts at the front for straightforward positioning
• Stainless steel exterior is hardwearing and easy to clean down between services
• Aluminium interior supports hygiene and routine cleaning between deliveries

Installation requires a standard single-phase electrical supply and no specialist ventilation provision, provided the front-breathing path remains unobstructed. The levelling bolts are a useful detail on older sites where floors are uneven. Before ordering, it is worth confirming the available height clearance beneath your existing bench run — under-counter units vary slightly in overall height and it is an easy thing to check before delivery.

The HR360 is a practical choice for small to medium-sized kitchens, café operations, pub kitchens, and any site needing reliable dairy-temperature storage close to the preparation area. It works well as a standalone unit or as part of a larger under-counter configuration. Sites with significantly higher cold storage demands may find a larger upright or multi-door cabinet better matched to their throughput requirements.

If you want to talk through whether this unit fits your kitchen layout or cold storage needs, the team is happy to help you think it through before you commit.

The Foster EcoPro G3 EP700HL is a full-height, two-door upright cabinet that provides both refrigerated and frozen storage within a single footprint. Each section operates on its own independent refrigeration circuit, with its own temperature controls, so the chiller and freezer compartments can be managed correctly without one influencing the other. For kitchens where floor space is genuinely constrained, it removes the need to accommodate two separate cabinets.

In busy service conditions the independent circuits are a practical advantage — peak demand in one zone does not pull performance from the other. The G3 generation is rated to operate in ambient temperatures up to 43°C, which matters in warm or poorly ventilated kitchen environments where standard equipment can begin to struggle during service. Foster's +stayclear condenser is designed to resist the build-up of lint and grease between service intervals, helping the unit sustain efficiency without requiring constant attention.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the cabinet includes several features worth noting:

• Independent refrigeration circuits keep both temperature zones stable regardless of load
• Airlines ventilation system manages compressor heat, reducing running time over long service periods
• PureControl LED display gives clear temperature readings and is connectivity-ready with a gateway addition
• 304-grade stainless steel on doors and covers stands up to daily cleaning and heavy kitchen use
• Helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be pulled out for cleaning without stressing the cable

Installation is straightforward for a self-contained upright of this type. It runs on a standard single-phase supply and requires adequate clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation — especially relevant in warmer kitchen spaces. Carrying two independent refrigeration systems and two door seals, both are worth including in any planned preventive maintenance schedule to keep performance consistent.

This cabinet is well suited to smaller professional kitchens, hotel back-of-house areas, satellite prep rooms, and event catering environments where both chilled and frozen storage are needed but a full two-cabinet solution is not practical. Where an operation runs significantly higher throughput with distinct volume demands across both temperature zones, separate dedicated uprights would offer more operational flexibility and redundancy.

If you are unsure whether the capacity split across the two compartments suits your service pattern, our team is happy to work through it with you before you commit.

The Foster HR200 is a single-door under-counter refrigerator with a 200-litre capacity, designed to sit beneath standard preparation benches in a commercial kitchen. Its purpose is straightforward: to keep dairy and chilled ingredients refrigerated at the point of use, reducing unnecessary movement during service without occupying the floor space of a full upright cabinet.

Foster has a well-established background in commercial refrigeration, and the HR200 reflects that practical experience. The stainless steel exterior stands up to the day-to-day knocks and regular wipe-downs of a working kitchen, while the front-breathing refrigeration system is one of the unit's most operationally useful characteristics. Because all ventilation is handled from the front, the HR200 can be fitted into an enclosed cabinetry run without requiring rear clearance — a meaningful advantage in compact or galley-style kitchen layouts where space is already under pressure.

In practical terms, the unit offers several clear operational advantages:

• Front-breathing design allows enclosed installation without rear ventilation clearance
• Rear castors and front levelling bolts simplify positioning and levelling on uneven floors
• Stainless steel exterior is hardwearing and straightforward to clean during and after service
• Climate class 4 rating means the unit performs reliably in warmer kitchen environments
• Under-counter footprint keeps refrigerated stock close to the prep area throughout service

Installation is uncomplicated. The HR200 connects to a standard mains electrical supply and requires no specialist ventilation work — the front grille simply needs to remain unobstructed. The levelling bolts are a practical detail worth noting, particularly in older premises where floors are rarely perfectly level. One consideration worth checking before purchase: the unit is rated for dairy temperature ranges, so operators handling raw meat or fish should confirm the operating temperature meets their specific requirements.

The HR200 is well suited to cafés, small restaurant kitchens, hotel serveries, and similar operations where reliable under-counter refrigerated storage is needed close to the point of preparation. For higher-volume sites or operations requiring considerably more capacity, a larger under-counter or upright model would likely be a better fit.

If you want to confirm this unit suits your layout, installation conditions, or temperature requirements, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.

The Foster HR150 is a single-door undercounter refrigerator designed to sit beneath standard preparation benches in commercial kitchens. At 150 litres, it provides a practical volume of chilled storage within a compact footprint — a sensible choice where floor area and bench space are both at a premium.

The front-breathing refrigeration system is one of the more operationally useful aspects of this unit. With both air intake and exhaust operating from the front face, the HR150 can be installed flush within an enclosed undercounter cabinetry run without requiring rear or side clearance. This makes it a practical fit for fitted kitchen layouts where rear-venting units would create airflow problems, or where access behind and beside the unit simply isn't available.

For day-to-day reliability, the HR150 is rated to climate class 4, meaning it maintains stable performance in ambient temperatures up to 32°C — broadly representative of the conditions found in a working commercial kitchen. The stainless steel exterior handles regular cleaning and the general physical demands of a busy kitchen environment without issue.

• Front-breathing ventilation allows installation in enclosed undercounter runs
• Climate class 4 rating ensures reliable performance in warm kitchen conditions
• Stainless steel construction is robust and straightforward to maintain
• Roller castors and levelling bolts allow repositioning and cleaning access beneath the unit
• Compact capacity delivers useful chilled storage without occupying significant floor space

This unit is well suited to smaller operations, supplementary prep areas, or service points where additional undercounter chilled storage is needed. For sites with greater throughput or storage demands, a larger undercounter or full-height cabinet is likely the more appropriate choice.

If you're working out how the HR150 fits into your bench layout or weighing it against other options, we're happy to talk it through before you commit.

The Foster EcoPro G3 EP700M is a single door upright refrigerator built specifically for raw meat storage. Unlike a general-purpose chiller, it is configured to hold the lower temperature range required for raw protein, making it a practical choice where food safety compliance, HACCP controls, and the separation of raw meat from other produce are non-negotiable requirements.

In a working kitchen, a dedicated meat cabinet earns its place by removing the compromises that come with storing raw protein alongside other produce. Consistent temperature holding through a busy service — deliveries arriving, doors opening regularly, ambient kitchen heat — is where the EcoPro G3 range is designed to perform. Foster's Stayclear condenser resists dust and grease build-up over time, and the cyclopentane foam insulation supports long-term thermal efficiency well beyond installation day. The airlines ventilation system reduces compressor run time, which in a high-use environment translates to lower energy consumption and reduced wear across the unit's working life.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, several design details matter in practice:

• PureControl LED display with straightforward navigation and an optional connectivity gateway for remote monitoring
• 304 stainless steel on doors and covers, durable under heavy kitchen use and easy to clean thoroughly
• Fully floating lock that resists breakage if a key is left in, avoiding a recurring maintenance call
• Helicoil mains lead allowing the unit to be moved for cleaning without disconnecting from the supply
• Rated to operate in ambient temperatures up to 43°C, suited to warm or poorly ventilated kitchen spaces

Installation is straightforward for a freestanding upright of this type. It requires a standard single-phase electrical supply, adequate clearance at the rear and top for ventilation, and a level floor. Position the unit away from direct heat sources — ovens, fryers, or heated pass equipment — where possible, to avoid placing unnecessary load on the refrigeration circuit. Check door swing clearance against your kitchen layout before finalising placement.

The EP700M is well suited to butchers, hotel kitchens, pub kitchens, and catering operations where a dedicated raw meat refrigerator is required to meet food hygiene regulations. The 600-litre capacity suits medium to high volume sites. For smaller operations with modest throughput, a compact undercounter or smaller upright may be more proportionate. For high-volume sites processing large quantities of raw protein daily, a larger capacity or multi-door configuration is worth considering.

If you would like to talk through whether this cabinet suits your storage volumes, kitchen layout, or compliance requirements, the team is happy to help before you place an order.

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.

The Foster EcoPro G3 EP1440M is a large-capacity double-door upright refrigerator configured specifically for raw meat storage. Unlike general-purpose refrigeration, it is built to hold the tighter temperature parameters that safe meat storage demands, making it a dedicated unit rather than a flexible general store.

A cabinet of this size is suited to kitchens with meaningful daily meat throughput — hotels, large restaurants, contract caterers, and production kitchens where separating raw meat from other produce is both a food safety requirement and an operational discipline. The double-door configuration allows independent access to each section, which limits temperature loss during busy service periods compared with fully opening a single large door. Foster's EcoPro G3 platform carries a reliable reputation for maintaining stable temperatures even in warm kitchen environments, and the updated Airlines ventilation system manages compressor heat effectively, supporting consistent performance across long shifts.

Several design details carry genuine day-to-day value for kitchen teams:

• The +stayclear condenser resists dust and grease build-up, reducing maintenance frequency and sustaining efficiency over time
• 304-grade stainless steel on doors and covers handles the wear of a busy kitchen reliably
• The PureControl LED display is straightforward to monitor, with optional building management system connectivity via a gateway
• Cyclopentane insulation foam retains thermal efficiency as the cabinet ages
• The helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be repositioned for cleaning without awkward cable management

This is a freestanding cabinet and requires adequate clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation — restricting airflow around the condenser will affect both efficiency and service life. It is rated for operation in ambient temperatures up to 43°C, which covers most UK commercial kitchen environments. Access routes, doorway widths, and corridor clearances should all be confirmed ahead of delivery, as a cabinet of this size and weight requires careful positioning. A dedicated electrical supply should be verified with your installer before fitting.

This unit is well suited to medium-to-large operations where dedicated meat storage is a compliance or operational priority. Smaller kitchens with lower meat volume would likely find a single-door or reduced-capacity alternative more proportionate. For very high-volume production sites, a remote-condensing solution may be worth considering.

If you would like to talk through whether this cabinet fits your storage volume, kitchen layout, or food safety obligations, the team is happy to help before you commit.
