Foster EcoPro G3 EP1/2L Two Door Freezer Counter 280Ltr

The Foster EcoPro G3 EP1/2L is a two door under-counter freezer built for commercial kitchen use. It sits at worktop height, providing 280 litres of frozen storage directly within the prep or service line without taking up additional floor space. This is a practical, workday unit designed to keep frozen produce accessible and at temperature throughout a full service.

Foster's EcoPro G3 range has a strong reputation in professional kitchens for consistent holding temperatures and reliable energy performance. The counter format suits kitchens where prep space and frozen storage need to share the same footprint — it keeps product close at hand while maintaining the worksurface above. The improved ventilation system reduces compressor running time, which over a full week of service adds up to a meaningful reduction in energy draw. The +stayclear condenser is designed to resist dust and grease build-up, helping the unit maintain its efficiency over time rather than degrading with use.

From an operational standpoint, the G3 counter offers several practical advantages for busy teams:

• Compact footprint without reduction in usable capacity
• PureControl LED display — straightforward to read and adjust during service
• 304 stainless steel on doors and covers, holding up well under daily cleaning and heavy use
• Cyclopentane foam insulation maintains thermal performance over the product's working life
• Helicoil mains lead allows the unit to be moved clear for cleaning underneath without disconnecting from the wall

This unit operates in ambient kitchen temperatures up to 43°C, which makes it suitable for warmer kitchen environments where cheaper units can struggle. The fully floating lock mechanism is a sensible detail — it reduces the risk of lock damage if a key is left in and the door is knocked, which is a common cause of maintenance calls in high-traffic kitchens.

The EP1/2L is well suited to small and medium commercial kitchens, cafés, pub kitchens, and restaurant prep areas where under-counter frozen storage is needed close to the cooking line. It works particularly well where worktop space above the counter is also in use. For larger operations requiring more frozen storage capacity, or kitchens running high-volume service across multiple prep stations, it is worth considering whether a larger undercounter unit or an upright freezer cabinet would be a better fit.
