Moffat FTPG2 Focus Polar Chilled Cold Servery Unit

The Moffat FTPG2 Focus Polar Unit is a self-contained chilled servery designed for displaying and serving cold accompaniments at the point of service — toppings, condiments, butter, coleslaw, relishes, and similar cold items. Rather than drawing from a mains power supply, it relies on a eutectic ice pack that is pre-frozen overnight and fitted into the base before service begins. The result is a genuinely portable, cable-free unit that a powered counter simply cannot match for flexibility of placement.

In operation, the shallow stainless steel well accepts gastronorm inserts and is paired with a low transparent screen that helps retain cold air around the contents throughout service. A fitted sneeze guard supports basic food hygiene display requirements, and the illuminated gantry gives the unit a presentable front-of-house appearance without requiring any infrastructure at the service point. For sandwich bars, event caterers, mobile operators, and hospitality settings running temporary or outdoor service, this approach removes a practical barrier that often complicates chilled display at the counter.

The practical advantages worth noting:

• No mains connection required — position freely on any counter or servery run
• Eutectic pack charges in a standard freezer — no specialist equipment needed
• Gastronorm-compatible inserts support standard prep and portioning workflows
• Fitted sneeze guard aids compliance with food hygiene display requirements
• Lightweight and portable — straightforward to relocate between service points or events

It is worth being clear about the limits of eutectic cooling. The system performs well across moderate service periods in reasonable ambient conditions. In high-heat environments or across a very long service run, temperature stability will not match that of a mains-powered chilled counter. For high-throughput operations or extended services, a powered unit would be a more dependable choice. This unit is best understood as a practical display solution for lighter-duty and flexible service scenarios rather than a direct replacement for a refrigerated counter.

If you are weighing this against a powered alternative, or are unsure whether the eutectic approach suits your service length and environment, our team is happy to help you think it through before you commit.
