Kubus Drop-In Multideck Self-Service Refrigerated Display 1175mm

The Kubus 1175mm drop-in multideck is a self-service refrigerated display unit designed to sit within a countertop installation. It provides a chilled display area for pre-packaged food and drink, allowing customers to serve themselves directly. The unit features three adjustable toughened glass shelves above a chilled well at counter level, with a flat toughened glass sneeze screen and side glass panels forming the customer-facing enclosure. A gantry houses the diffused shelf lighting and an eye-level digital temperature display, with a lockable control panel to deter tampering in customer-accessible environments.

In a busy retail or hospitality setting, this unit is well suited to sustained all-day operation. The refrigeration system maintains a food-safe core temperature consistently, and the R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant offers efficient thermal performance with a lower environmental impact than older refrigerant types. The underslung condensing unit is ventilated via air inlet grilles and a rear vent supplied with the unit, so the refrigeration load is managed without relying on the ambient room ventilation to do the heavy lifting. An integral condensate evaporator means no site drainage is required, which simplifies installation considerably.

From an operational standpoint, there are several practical advantages worth noting:

• Shelves are adjustable in both height and angle, allowing display to be tailored to product size
• Each shelf edge includes a ticket strip for pricing or promotional labelling
• Modular removable deck plates make routine cleaning more straightforward
• The lockable control panel helps maintain consistent temperature settings in customer-facing locations
• 24-hour operation capability suits sites with extended trading hours or overnight holding requirements

Installation requires a countertop opening sized to accept the drop-in frame, with the air grilles and rear vent correctly fitted to ensure adequate airflow to the underslung condensing unit. The unit weighs 158kg, so the countertop structure needs to be appropriately specified. It connects via a standard 2m lead and plug, so no hardwired electrical work is needed, but the countertop build-out and ventilation arrangement should be planned carefully before installation. This is not a freestanding unit and is not suitable for open floor placement.

This model is well suited to delis, cafés, farm shops, workplace canteens, and food retail environments where customer self-service of chilled products is part of the service model. The 1175mm width and three-shelf configuration provide a practical display capacity for sites with moderate throughput. For higher-volume retail environments or larger countertop installations, a wider or deeper capacity model may be worth considering.

If you are specifying this unit as part of a countertop build or are unsure whether it suits your ventilation setup or service volume, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.
