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

Product No: CW196

Product Description

The Polar G-Series 1200Ltr is a large-format upright reach-in freezer built to hold and provide fast access to significant quantities of frozen stock in busy commercial kitchen environments. It accommodates up to 20 double-size 2/1 gastronorm trays at 100mm depth, allowing direct tray transfers between freezer and cooking equipment without decanting — a straightforward efficiency gain in kitchens already working with 2/1 GN across their kit.

The stable door configuration — where the upper and lower door sections operate independently on each side — makes a genuine operational difference during service. Rather than exposing the full internal height every time a tray is retrieved, only the relevant section opens. This limits cold air loss per access, helps the unit hold a consistent temperature under repeated use, and contributes to lower running costs across a full service day. The Climate Class 4 rating confirms the unit is designed to operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to 32°C, which is a relevant consideration in kitchens that run warm or lack a dedicated refrigeration room.

Key practical characteristics of this freezer include:

  • Stable door design reduces cold air loss during frequent access throughout service
  • Full 2/1 GN tray compatibility for direct transfer between storage and cooking equipment
  • Stainless steel construction throughout — durable and straightforward to keep clean
  • R290 refrigerant, which carries a low global warming potential
  • Climate Class 4 rating for reliable use in warm kitchen environments

At 180kg and with a wide footprint, this is a substantial unit. Floor loading capacity, clear delivery access, and adequate ventilation clearance around the cabinet should all be confirmed before ordering. A dedicated electrical supply should be verified with a qualified electrician prior to installation. The holding range of -20°C to -10°C covers general frozen food storage well, but this unit is not intended for specialist ultra-low temperature applications.

This freezer suits operations with high frozen stock turnover and frequent tray movement — hotel kitchens, large pub operations, contract and event catering, and busy independent restaurants working at volume. For smaller kitchens or lower-throughput sites, a single-door or reduced-capacity model is likely a better fit. For sites specifying multiple units or planning a larger refrigeration layout, it is worth discussing configuration and load requirements before committing.

If you would like to talk through whether this unit is the right match for your kitchen's workflow and space, we are happy to help before you make a decision.
