The Polar U-Series gelato showcase is a countertop display freezer designed to present up to nine 1/3 GN pans of gelato or ice cream at serving temperature. It sits on the customer-facing side of a service counter and is built around the practical demands of dessert service — keeping product correctly frozen, clearly visible, and easy to scoop through a busy period.

Forced-air cooling maintains a consistent holding temperature across all nine display pans, which is important when the cabinet lid is being opened regularly during service. The unit runs an automatic heated defrost cycle to prevent ice build-up without requiring manual intervention, and the R290 refrigerant keeps the environmental footprint relatively low. LED lighting illuminates the display interior without generating excess heat that would compromise the product.

From an operational standpoint, the cabinet earns its place in a working dessert service through several practical design decisions:

  • Under-counter storage for a further nine 1/3 GN pans, allowing immediate restocking without leaving the counter area
  • Rear sliding doors give service staff quick access without disrupting the display front
  • Digital controller keeps temperature monitoring straightforward for any member of the team
  • LED lighting adds visual appeal to the display without adding heat load to the cabinet
  • Climate Class 4 rating confirms suitability for warmer service environments

At 1817mm wide and 310kg, this is a substantial unit that requires adequate floor space and structural support before installation. It operates on a standard electrical supply, but the weight means delivery access and final positioning should be planned in advance. The coated steel exterior is practical for day-to-day cleaning but should be treated accordingly — avoid abrasive products on the finish.

This showcase is well suited to cafes, gelato parlours, dessert bars, and hotel restaurants where gelato or ice cream is a meaningful part of the offer and a nine-flavour range justifies the footprint. Operators running a smaller selection or working with more limited counter space may find a more compact unit more appropriate, while higher-volume sites with very rapid throughput may want to consider a larger or more heavily specified display cabinet.

If you are unsure whether this unit fits your counter configuration, service volume, or electrical setup, our team is happy to work through the details with you before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

How many flavours can this unit display and hold in total?

The display area holds up to nine 1/3 GN pans, which typically corresponds to nine flavours depending on your pan configuration. The under-counter storage area holds a further nine 1/3 GN pans, giving you a ready reserve of backup stock without needing to go to a separate freezer during service.

What electrical supply does this cabinet require, and is there anything to consider before installation?

The unit runs at 880W on a standard UK electrical supply, so dedicated high-current wiring is not required. However, at 310kg the cabinet is heavy — floor loading capacity and delivery access should be assessed before the unit arrives, and final positioning is best planned before the unit is sited, as moving it once in place is not straightforward.

Is this cabinet suitable for use in a warm front-of-house or outdoor covered environment?

The U-Series showcase carries a Climate Class 4 rating, which means it is designed to operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to around 30°C — making it appropriate for warmer service areas such as sun-facing counters or covered outdoor service points. It is not rated for fully exposed outdoor use or uncontrolled environments.
