Product Description
The IMC BM70 is a top-loading bottle cooler designed for underbar installation in commercial bars, pubs, and hospitality venues. It holds up to 140 bottles in a vertical storage arrangement, accessed through a glazed sliding lid that sits flush with the bar top. The unit is intended for operators who need chilled bottles close to hand and served quickly during service.
In a busy bar environment, the BM70 performs well under the kind of sustained demand that comes with peak trading. The top-loading format means bottles are retrieved in a single downward motion, which is faster than reaching into a front-opening cabinet during a rush. The glazed lid allows staff to see stock levels without opening the unit, which helps maintain temperature consistency and reduces unnecessary door contact. The internal shelving and divider system keeps different bottle types organised and easy to locate under pressure.
From a practical standpoint, the BM70 offers several operational advantages worth noting:
- Top-loading access reduces door opening time, supporting more consistent chilling
- Glazed sliding lid allows stock visibility without breaking the cold air seal
- Vertical bottle storage makes restocking straightforward during quieter periods
- Compatible with IMC's modular Bartender range, allowing integration into a built bar run
- Supplied with a standard UK 3-pin plug — no specialist electrical installation required
The BM70 is designed for underbar installation and its dimensions are intended to suit standard bar counter depths. It can be used as a standalone unit or built into an IMC Bartender modular system. Optional internal baskets, dividers, and lighting are available, which can improve organisation and visibility in lower-light bar environments. Being plug-in rather than hardwired keeps installation straightforward.
This unit is well suited to bars, pubs, hotel bars, and event venues where bottled drinks form a significant part of service output and speed of access is important. It is particularly practical where bar space is limited and a front-opening cabinet would be less convenient. For higher-volume sites — festival bars, stadium concessions, or very high-throughput nightclub environments — a larger-capacity or multi-unit setup may be worth considering.
If you're not certain whether the BM70 is the right fit for your bar configuration or service volume, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The BM70 is well suited to busy bar environments where bottled drinks are a core part of service. For very high-throughput operations — such as large nightclubs or multi-bar festival sites — it is worth considering whether a single unit provides sufficient capacity or whether a multiple-unit configuration would better support your service volume.
- No. The unit comes supplied with a standard UK 3-pin plug and can be used as a plug-in appliance. No hardwiring is required, which makes installation straightforward in most bar environments.
- Yes. The BM70 is designed for underbar installation and is compatible with IMC's modular Bartender range, so it can be integrated into both new and existing bar builds. It can equally be used as a freestanding unit if a modular setup isn't required. It's worth confirming your counter depth and available space before ordering to ensure a clean fit.
