Polar G-Series Upright Double Stable Door Gastro Freezer 1200Ltr

Product No: CW196

Product Description

The Polar G-Series 1200Ltr upright gastro freezer is a large-format reach-in freezer designed for busy commercial kitchens that need to hold significant quantities of frozen goods and move them efficiently during service. It accommodates up to 20 double-size 2/1 gastronorm trays, which allows direct transfer between cooking and storage equipment without decanting — a straightforward operational advantage in high-throughput kitchens.

In demanding service environments, the stable door configuration makes a practical difference. Rather than opening the full door height each time a tray is retrieved, the upper and lower door sections operate independently. This reduces cold air loss per opening, which helps the unit maintain a consistent holding temperature during busy periods and supports lower energy consumption over the course of a service day. The unit is rated to Climate Class 4, meaning it is designed to operate reliably in ambient kitchen temperatures up to 32°C — a relevant consideration in kitchens without dedicated refrigeration rooms.

The G-Series is built for frequent daily access. Key practical characteristics include:

  • Stable door design limits cold air loss during repeated access throughout service
  • Full 2/1 GN compatibility allows direct tray transfers between units
  • Stainless steel construction throughout for durability and straightforward cleaning
  • R290 refrigerant, which carries a low global warming potential
  • Climate Class 4 rating for use in warm or poorly ventilated kitchen environments

At 180kg and with a footprint of 1340mm wide by 800mm deep, this is a substantial piece of equipment. Adequate floor loading, clear access for installation, and sufficient clearance for ventilation around the unit should all be confirmed before ordering. A dedicated power supply should be verified with an electrician prior to installation. The unit holds between -20°C and -10°C, making it suitable for general frozen food storage but not specialist ultra-low applications.

This freezer is well suited to catering operations with high frozen stock turnover — large pub kitchens, hotel operations, contract catering, event catering, and busy independent restaurants. It is particularly practical where 2/1 GN trays are already in use across the kitchen. For smaller operations, a single-door or lower-capacity model may be more appropriate. For sites with very high volume demands or where multiple units are being specified, it is worth discussing the layout and load requirements with us first.

If you are unsure whether this unit fits your kitchen's workflow or spatial constraints, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.
