The Polar U-Series is a single-door upright refrigerator that combines high-capacity chilled storage with a glass-fronted display panel, making it suitable for kitchens that need both back-of-house storage and front-of-house or pass visibility. It operates across a temperature range that covers most chilled food categories, and its R290 refrigerant gives it a low global warming potential — a consideration increasingly relevant to operators planning for longer-term compliance.
In busy service environments, ambient kitchen temperature is a real factor that standard refrigeration units can struggle with. The U-Series carries a Climate Class 5 rating, meaning it is built to maintain stable internal temperatures even when the surrounding environment reaches 40°C — relevant in hot kitchens where air conditioning is limited or absent. The self-closing door mechanism reduces temperature fluctuation during service, which matters both for food safety and energy efficiency during peak periods.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, this unit offers several practical advantages:
- Three adjustable shelves with pressed side panels — no separate runners or clips required
- Interior compatible with 2/1 GN pans, giving flexibility for prep storage alongside smaller containers
- Double-glazed glass door allows stock checks without opening the cabinet
- Fitted castors make repositioning straightforward during deep cleans or kitchen reconfiguration
- Stainless steel interior and exterior surfaces are practical to clean and durable under daily use
Installation is relatively straightforward — this is a self-contained refrigeration unit requiring only a standard electrical connection. At 165kg, it will need two people to manoeuvre safely into position, and you should confirm floor load capacity if installing on a raised or temporary structure. The castors assist with minor repositioning but are not a substitute for a proper initial placement plan. Ventilation clearance at the rear should be observed to ensure efficient operation — check the installation guide for specific clearances.
This unit is well suited to mid-sized restaurants, hotel kitchens, cafés, and hospitality venues where a single large-capacity fridge covers a broad range of chilled storage needs. The glass door makes it equally practical in a visible service area or a back-of-house prep environment. For very high-volume operations running multiple refrigeration units simultaneously, or for those needing greater total capacity across a single footprint, it is worth discussing whether a larger multi-door configuration would serve better.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your kitchen layout, service volume, or existing refrigeration setup, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit to an order.
£474.00(£568.80 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series upright display fridge is a single-door chilled merchandiser designed to keep bottled drinks, packaged snacks and chilled food products visible, accessible and correctly tempered during service. The black painted steel finish and full-height glazed door make it a practical front-of-house unit for sites where presentation matters alongside refrigeration performance.
In busy service environments — cafés, bars, hotel lobbies, visitor attractions and convenience-style retail counters — this type of unit earns its place by combining reliable chilling with self-service convenience. The internal lighting draws attention to stocked products, and the four adjustable shelves allow the interior to be configured around different product heights and stock rotation requirements. The double-glazed door helps limit cold loss during regular customer access, which matters in sites with high footfall and frequent door openings throughout the day.
From an operational standpoint, the unit offers a number of practical advantages:
- Lockable glazed door supports stock security in unsupervised or public-facing areas
- Adjustable shelves accommodate varying product sizes and allow layout changes during restocking
- Internal lighting improves product visibility without additional fitout
- Overhead display panel provides space for own-brand signage or promotional material
- Climate Class 4 rating confirms suitability for ambient environments up to 32°C
The unit runs on a standard single-phase supply and uses R600a refrigerant, which carries a low global warming potential and is the expected standard in modern commercial display refrigeration. At 124kg, it requires a solid, level floor surface and sufficient clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation. It is a freestanding unit and does not require any fixed installation, though positioning away from direct heat sources and sunlight will support consistent performance. The 1692mm height means overhead clearance should be confirmed before siting.
This fridge is well suited to lower-volume retail and hospitality settings where the priority is visibility and accessibility rather than high-capacity storage. It is commonly used in cafés, small bars, hotel breakout areas, visitor centres and staffed retail counters. Sites with higher stock volumes or continuous high-footfall service may find a larger-capacity unit more appropriate.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your site — in terms of capacity, ambient conditions or positioning — our team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.
£474.00(£568.80 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series upright display fridge is a single-door chilled merchandiser designed for front-of-house use. The full-height double-glazed door lets customers view and select products without needing staff assistance, and the white finish gives it a clean, neutral appearance that works well in café, bar and convenience retail settings. Internal lighting and an overhead display panel help present products clearly, while four adjustable shelves allow the cabinet to be configured around different bottle and product heights.
In day-to-day operation this is a reliable, consistent cabinet rather than a high-throughput production unit. It holds temperature steadily within the chilled food and drink range, and the R600a refrigerant contributes to reasonably low running costs relative to comparable units. The B energy rating reflects sensible efficiency for a cabinet of this size. The unit is rated for ambient conditions up to 32°C, which covers the majority of UK front-of-house environments, though sites with consistently high ambient temperatures — such as kitchens without adequate ventilation — should factor this into their decision.
Practical features that support front-of-house use include:
- Lockable double-glazed door for stock security in unattended or self-service settings
- Internal LED-style lighting for clear product visibility throughout the cabinet
- Four adjustable shelves to suit different product sizes and layouts
- R600a refrigerant with a lower global warming potential than older alternatives
- White finish suited to retail, café and hospitality front-of-house environments
Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type. It runs from a standard 13A mains connection and requires adequate ventilation clearance — particularly at the rear and top — for the condenser to operate efficiently. At 124kg, it is a substantial cabinet and access routes, flooring suitability and ceiling clearance should all be checked before delivery is arranged. The footprint is compact enough for tighter front-of-house spaces, but the full standing height means the final position needs to be chosen with care.
This cabinet is well suited to cafés, small bars, visitor attractions, convenience retail areas and similar settings where chilled drinks and snacks need to be displayed and accessed directly by customers. It is not intended as a high-volume back-of-house storage unit. For busier sites that need greater capacity, additional doors, or a higher-specification cabinet, there are larger options within the range worth considering.
If you would like to talk through whether this cabinet is the right fit for your space and service setup, the team is happy to help before you place an order.
£736.00(£883.20 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series 235-litre display fridge is a single-door upright merchandising unit designed to keep chilled drinks, sandwiches, cakes, and similar impulse-purchase products visible and accessible at the point of sale. The curved glass door and four-sided visibility are the defining features here — the cabinet is built around presentation as much as refrigeration, making it a practical choice wherever front-of-house product display matters.
In practice, this unit is well suited to lower-throughput environments. Polar position the C-Series as everyday commercial refrigeration for less demanding conditions, and that framing is worth taking seriously. The cabinet operates within a climate class 4 rating, meaning it handles ambient temperatures up to 32°C, which covers most café and retail environments in the UK. It is not designed for high-traffic kitchen pass situations or environments where the door is opened continuously throughout a long service. For quieter locations — a reception display, a small café counter, or a deli-style cold shelf — it performs reliably within its intended scope.
The practical benefits for day-to-day operation include:
- Internal LED lighting keeps products visible without adding significant heat load
- Four adjustable shelves allow flexible configuration for different product heights
- A-rated energy efficiency and R290 refrigerant help to keep running costs and environmental impact in check
- The self-service door design suits both assisted and customer-facing layouts
- Straightforward interior surfaces make routine cleaning quick and uncomplicated
Installation is relatively straightforward — the unit is freestanding and requires only a standard mains electrical connection. At 79kg it is substantial but manageable with two people. Allow adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation and door swing. This is a front-of-house cabinet rather than a back-of-house workhorse, and it should be sited accordingly — avoid positioning it directly adjacent to heat-generating equipment such as ovens or grills, as ambient heat will affect performance and energy consumption.
This fridge is best suited to small cafés, coffee shops, delis, hotel lobbies, and similar lower-volume retail or hospitality settings where product visibility drives sales. If your operation involves frequent door access throughout a long service shift, or if you need to hold a significantly larger product range, a higher-capacity or more heavily specified unit would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this cabinet is the right fit for your space and service style, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.
£2,392.00(£2,870.40 inc VAT)
The Polar U-Series deli display fridge is a wide-format, counter-height refrigerated display unit designed for chilled food and drink merchandising in commercial environments. At 1500mm wide with a 485-litre capacity, it provides a substantial display footprint without requiring walk-in or back-of-house refrigeration for front-of-house product. The unit operates on R290 refrigerant and holds a stable temperature range between 2°C and 8°C, with a Climate Class 4 rating meaning it is designed to perform reliably in ambient conditions up to 32°C — a practical consideration for busy service areas with high footfall and variable air conditioning.
Forced-air cooling circulates temperature consistently throughout the cabinet, which matters in a deli or grab-and-go context where doors are opened frequently during peak service. This style of cooling helps maintain product temperature even under repeated access, reducing the risk of warm spots that can affect food safety and shelf life. The triple-glazed anti-fog glass panels maintain visibility without condensation interrupting the display, and the internal LED lighting and black glass shelving are arranged to make product presentation clear and consistent throughout the trading day.
From an operational standpoint, the unit offers several practical advantages for front-of-house service:
- Rear sliding doors allow staff to restock quickly without disrupting customer-facing display
- Full four-sided visibility supports product identification from multiple angles
- LED lighting reduces heat load within the cabinet compared to older fluorescent alternatives
- Energy Rating B classification contributes to lower running costs over time
- Stainless steel construction supports straightforward daily cleaning routines
Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type — it runs on a standard electrical supply and does not require a dedicated water or drainage connection under normal operating conditions. That said, at 265kg the unit requires appropriate flooring and careful positioning during installation. It is worth confirming your floor loading capacity in advance, particularly in older premises. Adequate clearance at the rear and sides should be maintained for ventilation and access to the sliding doors from the service side.
This unit is well suited to delis, cafés, convenience stores, farm shops, and similar retail food environments where chilled product needs to be visible and accessible to customers throughout the day. It is a practical choice for moderate to high footfall sites. For very high-volume operations or where refrigeration demand is particularly intensive, a larger or multi-deck alternative may be worth considering.
If you are weighing up display capacity against your available floor space or want to talk through positioning and power requirements for your site, the team is happy to help you work through it before you commit.
£1,068.00(£1,281.60 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series 950-litre double door display cooler is a large-format upright refrigerator designed for food retail environments where chilled product needs to be visible, accessible and well-presented. The black painted steel finish and integrated overhead light box give it a clean, purposeful appearance that sits comfortably in farm shops, convenience stores, delis and similar food retail settings. This is a display unit first and foremost — the glass hinged doors are there to drive product visibility and encourage customer selection, not simply to store stock out of sight.
With 950 litres of usable space across two doors and ten adjustable shelves, the unit offers genuine flexibility in how stock is arranged and rotated. The R290 refrigerant and climate class 4 rating mean it is suited to warmer ambient environments — relevant for shops where doors open frequently throughout trading hours. Temperature is maintained reliably across the 2°C to 10°C operating range, which covers the full spectrum of standard chilled retail products including dairy, cooked meats, soft drinks and packaged produce. The B energy rating reflects reasonably efficient running costs for a unit of this size, which matters when the cooler is operating continuously through long retail days.
From a practical standpoint, the hinged door configuration suits locations where staff or customers need straightforward access to shelves without the complexity of sliding mechanisms. Key operational advantages include:
- Ten adjustable shelves allowing flexible product ranging and easy restocking
- Overhead light box enhances product visibility without requiring separate display lighting
- R290 refrigerant with climate class 4 rating handles warmer front-of-house environments
- Black painted steel finish suits premium retail and deli-style presentation
- Consistent temperature control across a wide chilled range supports varied product mixes
Installation is straightforward for a unit of this class, but the 177kg weight means delivery and positioning should be planned carefully — adequate access and a level, solid floor are important from the outset. The unit runs on a standard electrical supply, though it is worth confirming your existing supply and any local ventilation requirements before installation, particularly if the unit is sited in a confined space or close to heat sources. This is not a unit that belongs in a poorly ventilated corner.
This cooler is well suited to independent retailers, farm shops, delis, convenience stores and café or bakery settings where a substantial chilled display is needed and front-of-house presentation matters. For smaller sites or lower-volume requirements, a single-door or smaller-capacity model would be a more proportionate choice. For high-throughput operations requiring rapid restocking from the rear, a back-bar or remote-chilled alternative may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your space or trading pattern, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit to a purchase.
£454.00(£544.80 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series countertop display fridge is a compact, glass-fronted merchandiser designed to keep chilled drinks, snacks, and desserts at a consistent serving temperature whilst making the contents clearly visible to customers. The black finish gives it a reasonably smart appearance that suits counter or display areas in cafés, delis, bakeries, and similar front-of-house settings.
In practice, this unit is well suited to lower-demand environments where the fridge is opened and closed periodically rather than being accessed continuously throughout a busy service period. The climate class 4 rating means it can operate in ambient conditions up to 32°C, which covers most front-of-house and retail areas, though it is worth noting that sustained high ambient temperatures will place more load on the unit. The R600a refrigerant keeps running costs reasonably low, and the A energy rating reflects that efficiency in day-to-day use.
From an operational standpoint, the practical advantages include:
- Sliding glass doors that allow customers or staff to access stock without exposing the entire interior
- LED lighting that keeps the display well lit without generating excessive heat inside the cabinet
- A rear-mounted digital control panel for straightforward temperature monitoring and adjustment
- Removable shelves and doors that simplify end-of-day cleaning
- A relatively compact footprint that works on most standard countertops
Installation is straightforward — this is a plug-in unit requiring a standard 230V supply and no specialist fitting. At 39kg it is manageable to position, though you will want to confirm the counter can support the weight before placing it. Allow adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation, particularly at the rear, as restricted airflow will affect performance and longevity.
This fridge is best suited to operators who need a tidy, presentable chilled display for a modest product range and do not require the capacity or robustness of a larger upright or high-volume unit. It is not the right choice for kitchens where the fridge will be opened repeatedly throughout a demanding service, or where ambient temperatures consistently run high. For higher-volume or more demanding environments, a larger or more heavy-duty unit would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this model is the right fit for your counter space and service volume, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.
£1,714.00(£2,056.80 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series Triple Door Upright Display Chiller is a large-format refrigerated merchandising unit designed for food retail environments where chilled product visibility and holding capacity are both critical. Behind three hinged double-glazed doors sits a generous 1300-litre interior fitted with adjustable shelving, allowing operators to configure the display around their product range — from dairy and chilled meats through to salads, drinks, and pre-packed goods. An overhead light box draws attention to the unit from across the floor, which is useful in busier retail settings where products need to compete for attention.
In day-to-day retail use, the G-Series performs reliably across a wide product mix. The R290 refrigerant system operates within a consistent 0°C to 10°C range, which covers most chilled retail categories without needing adjustment. Climate Class 4 rating means the unit is suitable for warmer ambient environments — a practical consideration for busy shops where doors are frequently opened and internal temperatures can fluctuate. The double-glazed doors help maintain stable internal conditions during high-footfall periods without placing excessive demand on the refrigeration system.
From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are:
- Large multi-shelf capacity supports a wide variety of chilled product lines in a single unit
- Double-glazed doors reduce condensation and help maintain internal temperature during browsing
- Adjustable shelving allows the interior to be reconfigured as stock ranges change
- Overhead light box increases product visibility without additional display fixturing
- Straightforward interior layout makes restocking and cleaning relatively quick
At 174kg and standing over two metres tall, this is a substantial piece of equipment. A firm, level floor surface is essential, and access routes should be checked before delivery — door widths and corridor clearances are worth confirming in advance. The unit runs on a standard single-phase electrical supply. It does not require a water connection or external drainage, which simplifies installation. Ventilation clearance at the rear and top of the unit should be maintained as specified in the installation guide to ensure the refrigeration system runs efficiently. This is a freestanding unit and is not designed for integration into a refrigerated run.
The G-Series triple door chiller is well suited to farm shops, convenience stores, delicatessens, and similar food retail premises where a large, well-presented chilled display is a central part of the customer offer. It is less suited to compact spaces or sites with restricted floor area. For smaller retail environments, a single or double door variant from the same range may be more appropriate. For higher-volume or more demanding sites requiring greater refrigeration duty or closer temperature control, a heavier-duty commercial unit may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit suits your space, your product range, or your existing electrical setup, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.
£403.00(£483.60 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series curved door display fridge is a compact countertop refrigeration unit designed for front-of-house food and drink display. With a white finish, curved glass door, and internal LED lighting, it presents chilled products clearly and cleanly in customer-facing areas. Access from both front and rear doors makes restocking and cleaning straightforward without disrupting the display.
In terms of day-to-day performance, this unit is designed for lighter commercial use — environments where the door is opened periodically rather than continuously throughout a busy service. The Climate Class 4 rating means it operates reliably in ambient temperatures up to 32°C, which covers most café, retail, and front-of-house environments. It holds temperature across the 0°C to 12°C range, making it well suited to soft drinks, pre-packaged sandwiches, salads, and dairy products.
The practical advantages for operators include:
- Front and rear door access for easy restocking without disturbing the display
- LED lighting that keeps products well lit while keeping running costs low
- Rear-mounted digital temperature panel for straightforward, accurate adjustment
- Compact countertop footprint suitable for counter ends, service points, and high-footfall positions
- A-rated energy efficiency, which helps reduce ongoing electricity costs
Installation is uncomplicated — the unit runs on a standard UK plug and requires no specialist connection. It is worth noting that this is a countertop unit, so the surface it sits on needs to be level and capable of supporting the loaded weight. There is no plumbed drainage, so condensate management should be factored into placement. This model is not designed for high-frequency door use or high-ambient back-of-house environments.
The C-Series sits at the lighter end of Polar's display refrigeration range and is best suited to cafés, sandwich shops, delis, small hotels, and similar operations where a tidy, energy-efficient countertop display is needed without the demands of high-volume or continuous-access service. For sites with heavier throughput or more frequent door access, a more robust display fridge from a higher-capacity range would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit matches your service volume or environment, we are happy to talk through the options before you commit to a purchase.
£591.00(£709.20 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series countertop display fridge is a compact refrigerated merchandiser designed to keep chilled products visible and accessible at the point of sale. With a black finish and square-edged glass design, it sits cleanly on a service counter without looking out of place in front-of-house environments. The unit holds a working temperature range that covers everything from soft drinks and packaged snacks through to desserts and chilled confectionery.
In practice, this unit performs well in moderate-volume settings where customers are selecting their own products or staff are retrieving orders quickly from behind the counter. The two adjustable internal shelves allow operators to configure the interior around whatever they're displaying — taller bottles on one shelf, shorter items stacked on another. Recovery after door opening is reliable enough for consistent throughput during a busy lunch service, though it is sized for counter use rather than high-rotation grab-and-go environments with very frequent access.
From an operational standpoint, a few things stand out:
- Rear sliding glass doors allow staff access without disrupting the customer-facing display
- Removable doors and adjustable shelves simplify routine cleaning
- R600a refrigerant and a B energy rating help keep running costs in check over time
- Digital temperature control supports accurate, consistent chilling across the cabinet
- The black stainless steel finish presents well in café, deli, and retail counter settings
Installation is straightforward — this is a plug-in countertop unit requiring only a standard 230V supply and adequate counter space. At 55kg, positioning is a two-person job, but no fixed installation or specialist commissioning is needed. Ensure there is sufficient clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation; placing the unit hard against a wall or enclosed on both sides can affect performance over time. Climate Class 4 means it is rated for ambient environments up to around 38°C, which covers most UK commercial kitchens and front-of-house areas.
This unit is well suited to cafés, delis, bakeries, hotel lobbies, and similar settings where a small range of chilled products needs to be displayed attractively at the counter. It is not the right choice for high-volume cold rooms or back-of-house refrigeration — it is designed specifically for display and point-of-sale use. For sites with significantly higher throughput or where a larger capacity is needed, a bigger upright display unit may be worth considering.
If you're unsure whether this size fits your counter layout or service volume, our team is happy to talk it through before you order.
£1,068.00(£1,281.60 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series 950-litre upright display cooler is a large-capacity, double sliding door refrigerated cabinet designed for front-of-house merchandising in commercial environments. It holds product at a consistent 2°C to 6°C and uses internal LED lighting to present chilled goods clearly and attractively to customers, without requiring any additional ambient lighting to show stock to best effect.
In busy service settings — hotel lobbies, staff canteens, deli counters, convenience retail within hospitality venues — a cabinet of this size earns its space by keeping a substantial volume of product accessible and visible throughout the day. The sliding door configuration is a practical choice where floor space in front of the unit is limited or where customers or staff are accessing it frequently; sliding doors avoid the clearance arc that hinged doors require and reduce the disruption of repeated openings during peak periods. The R290 refrigerant used in this unit has a low global warming potential, which is increasingly relevant for operators working to reduce their environmental footprint.
From an operational standpoint, the key advantages include:
- Large 950-litre capacity supports high product turnover without constant restocking
- Sliding doors improve access flow in tight or busy service areas
- Internal LED lighting enhances product visibility and supports sales presentation
- White painted steel finish integrates cleanly into most front-of-house environments
- Climate Class 4 rating means it operates reliably in warmer ambient conditions, such as open-plan service areas
Installation is straightforward in most commercial settings. The unit is freestanding and requires a standard mains connection. At 177kg, it will need appropriate handling equipment and enough clearance at the rear and sides for adequate airflow — restricted ventilation is a common cause of compressor strain and should be factored in during placement. At just over two metres tall and 1.2 metres wide, it demands a reasonable footprint, so confirming your available floor space before ordering is worthwhile.
This cabinet is well suited to hotels, cafés, convenience-style food-to-go operations, staff restaurants, and hospitality venues where chilled product needs to be both accessible and visible to customers or serving staff. It is a substantial unit and best suited to sites with consistent demand and the throughput to justify the capacity. For smaller operations or back-of-house chilled storage, a more compact unit may be a better fit; for very high-volume sites with extended service hours, it is worth discussing whether a heavier-duty commercial refrigeration option would serve better long-term.
If you're weighing up whether this cabinet is right for your layout and service style, we're happy to talk it through before you commit to anything.
£736.00(£883.20 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series 235-litre curved door display fridge is a single-door upright chiller designed for front-of-house product presentation. The curved glass door and full four-sided visibility make the contents easy to see from multiple angles, which works well for impulse-purchase lines such as soft drinks, bottled water, sandwiches, pastries and chilled desserts. The black cabinet finish gives it a reasonably clean, modern appearance that sits comfortably on a counter run or as a freestanding floor unit.
The C-Series sits in Polar's entry-level commercial range and is intended for environments where the unit is accessed less frequently throughout the day — think a café service counter, a deli display, a small hotel lobby, or a convenience retail setting. It operates within a climate class 4 rating, meaning it is rated for ambient conditions up to 32°C, which covers most UK front-of-house environments without issue. Temperature is maintained across a 0°C to 12°C range, suitable for chilled soft drinks and most pre-packaged food displays, though it is not designed for the sustained high open-and-close frequency of a busy bar back or high-throughput grab-and-go operation.
Practical benefits for day-to-day use include:
- Internal LED lighting that keeps the display well-lit without generating excessive heat inside the cabinet
- Four adjustable shelves that can be repositioned to accommodate different product heights
- A self-service-friendly layout, allowing placement in either assisted or self-serve configurations
- An R290 refrigerant system, which carries a low global warming potential and aligns with current environmental direction
- An A energy rating, which helps keep running costs in check for a unit that will likely be on continuously
Installation is straightforward. The unit is freestanding and requires a standard 13A mains supply — no dedicated electrical circuit is needed in most cases. At 79kg it is a manageable two-person installation, though its height of 1690mm means overhead clearance and manoeuvring through narrow doorways should be checked before delivery. There is no water or drainage connection required. The unit relies on natural air circulation rather than forced ventilation to the rear, so allow adequate clearance from walls and adjacent equipment as recommended by the manufacturer. It is not suitable for outdoor use or unheated environments.
This fridge is well suited to lower-volume display settings: independent cafés, small hotel breakfast areas, deli counters, office catering points, or convenience retail. For sites with higher footfall, more frequent door cycling, or a need for greater capacity, a more robust mid-range or commercial-grade display chiller would be a more appropriate investment over the long term.
If you are unsure whether this model fits your service volume or space, our team is happy to talk through the options with you before you commit to anything.
£346.00(£415.20 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series countertop display fridge is a compact, glass-fronted refrigeration unit designed for food-to-go and retail environments where chilled product needs to be visible and accessible to customers. At 68 litres capacity, it holds a practical selection of canned drinks, bottled water, yoghurts, fresh sandwiches, and similar grab-and-go items, all visible from multiple sides through its all-round glazed display.
In lighter commercial settings — a sandwich counter, a small café, a mobile catering unit, or a deli — this unit performs reliably across a typical service day. It maintains a temperature range of 0°C to 12°C, which suits soft drinks, pre-packaged sandwiches, and chilled desserts well. It carries a climate class 4 rating, meaning it is tested to operate in ambient conditions up to 32°C, which provides reassurance in warmer front-of-house environments. It is worth noting that the C-Series is designed for moderate rather than intensive use — operations requiring frequent door opening throughout a busy service will want to consider a more robust unit.
From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are straightforward:
- A-rated energy efficiency helps keep running costs low over extended daily use
- Three adjustable shelves allow flexible product presentation and restocking
- Digital temperature controls make day-to-day management simple
- The black finish suits front-of-house placement in café and deli settings
- Compact footprint makes it practical for counter or worktop installation
Installation is straightforward — the unit is a freestanding, plug-in appliance requiring only a standard UK mains socket. No specialist installation is needed. At 33.2kg it is manageable to position and reposition as required. Ventilation clearance around the unit should be maintained to avoid affecting performance. It uses R600a refrigerant, which is a low-global-warming-potential gas and contributes to its A energy rating.
This fridge is well suited to sandwich shops, small cafés, mobile catering operators, delicatessens, and similar lower-throughput retail environments. It is not intended for high-volume convenience or supermarket settings, where a larger or more heavily built unit would be more appropriate. For sites needing greater capacity or more intensive duty cycles, higher-specification models are available.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your space, ambient conditions, or service volumes, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.
£2,419.00(£2,902.80 inc VAT)
The Polar U-Series deli display fridge is a 1200mm wide, front-of-house refrigerated display unit designed to keep chilled food and drinks visible, well presented and consistently at safe serving temperature. It uses forced air cooling to maintain an even temperature throughout the cabinet, making it well suited to environments where doors are opened frequently throughout the day.
In busy food retail and hospitality settings — delis, café counters, hotel buffets and grab-and-go operations — consistent temperature recovery is important. The U-Series handles a climate class 4 rating, meaning it maintains its operating range reliably in ambient temperatures up to 32°C, which is relevant for kitchens and service areas that run warm during peak hours. The forced air system also helps prevent localised warm spots when stock is rotated or the cabinet is partially loaded.
From an operational standpoint, this unit offers a practical combination of features for display-led service:
- Four-sided glazing gives customers and staff clear visibility from multiple angles
- Rear sliding doors allow staff to restock quickly without disrupting the front display
- Internal LED lighting illuminates the cabinet evenly and runs at low energy cost
- Anti-fog triple-glazed glass maintains visibility without manual wiping during service
- Black glass shelving provides a neutral backdrop that suits most food and drink products
The cabinet uses R290 refrigerant, which carries a global warming potential of just 3 — a consideration for operators mindful of environmental compliance. With an energy rating of B, it represents a meaningful efficiency improvement over older equivalent models, which has a measurable effect on running costs over time.
At 215kg, installation requires adequate floor loading and enough clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation. The unit runs on a standard mains supply and does not require a plumbed drain, but siting should be planned to avoid direct sunlight or proximity to heat-generating equipment, both of which will affect refrigeration efficiency. It is not designed for back-of-house or high-humidity wash areas.
This unit is well suited to delis, cafés, convenience stores, hotel buffet areas and any front-of-house setting where chilled product display and fast restocking are a daily operational requirement. For higher-volume sites or installations requiring a larger footprint, alternatives with greater capacity are available in the range.
If you are unsure whether this unit suits your space or service volumes, our team is happy to talk through the options before you commit to a purchase.

The Polar C-Series countertop display fridge is a compact, glass-fronted merchandising unit designed to keep chilled products visible and correctly tempered at the point of sale. Available in white with sliding glass doors, it is a practical choice for operators who want a tidy, presentable display without occupying significant counter space.
In service, this unit is well suited to environments where access to the cabinet is relatively infrequent — think self-selection of soft drinks, pre-packaged desserts, or chilled snacks at a café counter or small deli. It is rated to operate in ambient conditions up to 32°C, which covers most front-of-house and retail environments, though it is worth noting that Polar positions the C-Series for less demanding settings rather than high-turnover operations with constant door opening. Recovery is adequate for its intended use, but operators running a fast-paced service with frequent access should consider a more duty-rated model.
From a practical standpoint, the unit offers several features that make day-to-day operation straightforward:
- LED internal lighting improves product visibility without generating excessive heat inside the cabinet
- A rear-mounted digital temperature panel allows quick monitoring and adjustment without disrupting the display
- Sliding glass doors give customers or staff easy access while maintaining a hygienic barrier
- Both the shelves and doors are removable, which simplifies end-of-day cleaning considerably
- The A energy rating keeps running costs reasonable for a unit that may operate continuously
Installation is straightforward — this is a plug-in unit requiring only a standard UK mains supply and a stable, level counter surface capable of supporting the loaded weight. No specialist refrigeration installation is needed. Ensure there is adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation, and that the counter position avoids direct sunlight or proximity to heat-generating equipment, both of which will work against the refrigeration system.
This unit is a reasonable fit for cafés, sandwich bars, small delis, hotel buffet areas, or any setting where a modest chilled display is needed at the counter and door access is moderate. For busier sites with higher product turnover or more demanding ambient conditions, a larger or more heavy-duty display cabinet would be a more appropriate investment.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right capacity or specification for your setup, our team are happy to talk through your requirements before you commit to an order.
£611.00(£733.20 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series countertop display fridge is a chilled merchandising unit designed to sit on a counter or service surface and keep food and drinks visible, accessible, and at a consistent serving temperature. The black finish and square glass profile give it a clean, neutral appearance that works well in front-of-house settings without drawing attention away from the product inside.
In a working service environment, this unit holds its temperature reliably across a 0°C to 12°C range, making it practical for chilled soft drinks, packaged desserts, sandwiches, and similar grab-and-go items. The 160-litre capacity across two adjustable shelves gives enough display space to run a useful product selection without taking over a counter. The R600a refrigerant contributes to a B energy rating, which is a meaningful consideration when a unit runs continuously through long service days.
From an operational standpoint, the G-Series suits busy service points well:
- Two sliding rear glass doors allow staff to restock and retrieve quickly without disrupting customers
- Adjustable shelves accommodate varying product heights and allow the layout to change with the menu
- Digital temperature control provides accurate, consistent monitoring without guesswork
- The stainless steel construction is straightforward to wipe down during and after service
- Continuous operation is supported by a climate class 4 rating, suitable for warmer front-of-house environments
Installation is straightforward — this is a plug-in unit requiring a standard mains connection and no fixed plumbing or drainage. At 63.5kg it is manageable to position but worth planning counter load capacity in advance. Ensure there is adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation; positioning it tight against a wall or enclosed on multiple sides can affect performance over time. It is not designed for raw meat or fish storage.
This unit is well suited to cafés, delis, hotel buffet counters, reception grab-and-go points, and similar front-of-house settings with moderate to busy throughput. If your volume is high enough that a single 160-litre unit would need restocking very frequently throughout the day, a larger-capacity model is likely a better long-term fit.
If you are weighing this up against other options or want to confirm it is the right choice for your counter setup, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£539.00(£646.80 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series countertop display fridge is a compact, front-of-house chilled merchandising unit designed to keep pastries, cakes, desserts, and cold drinks visible, accessible, and held at the correct serving temperature. With a 120-litre capacity and sliding glass doors on both sides, it sits comfortably on a counter or display surface and lets customers see the product clearly without staff needing to be involved in every sale.
In a café, bakery, or quick-service setting, this type of unit earns its place during peak trading. The sliding rear doors allow staff to restock quickly without disrupting the front-facing display, and the two adjustable shelves accommodate taller bottles or layered cake slices without the need for awkward rearranging. The unit maintains a consistent temperature range suitable for chilled food display, and the climate class 4 rating means it continues to perform reliably in ambient kitchen and service environments up to 32°C — a useful consideration for busy front-of-house areas that can warm up during service.
From an operational standpoint, a few practical advantages are worth noting:
- A-rated energy efficiency reduces running costs compared to older or lower-rated display units
- Rear-mounted digital controls keep the front appearance clean and are simple to adjust between services
- Removable shelves and a smooth interior make end-of-day cleaning straightforward
- R600a refrigerant supports the energy efficiency rating without compromising holding performance
- The black finish suits front-of-house environments where appearance alongside function matters
Installation is straightforward — this is a plug-in countertop unit running on a standard mains connection at 160W, so no dedicated electrical circuit or specialist installation is required. You will need to allow adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation, particularly at the rear, and ensure the surface it sits on can support 57kg. It is not intended for use as a storage fridge or back-of-house unit; it is designed specifically for front-of-house display in conditioned environments.
This unit is well suited to cafés, patisseries, delis, hotel breakfast counters, and similar settings where chilled display is needed at point of sale. The 120-litre capacity suits moderate throughput — operators with very high display volumes or larger counters may find a wider or taller unit more practical. Equally, for smaller kiosks or tight counter runs, a smaller-capacity display fridge may be a better fit.
If you are unsure whether this unit suits your counter layout, service volume, or the types of product you intend to display, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit to a purchase.
£353.00(£423.60 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series is a compact, countertop display refrigerator designed for light commercial environments where chilled product needs to be visible and accessible to customers. With a 68-litre capacity and four-sided glazed display, it allows customers to browse contents from multiple angles — practical for self-serve settings where product visibility directly influences sales.
In terms of day-to-day performance, this unit is well suited to lower-throughput sites where the door is not opened and closed continuously throughout service. The C-Series range is rated for ambient conditions up to 32°C (Climate Class 4), which covers most front-of-house retail environments. It is not intended for high-intensity back-of-house use or settings with frequent, rapid-access demands. Digital temperature controls allow straightforward adjustment, and the three adjustable shelves give reasonable flexibility for different product formats — canned drinks, packaged sandwiches, yoghurts and similar chilled retail lines all sit comfortably.
From an operational standpoint, the main advantages are:
- A-rated energy efficiency helps keep running costs in check over time
- Four-sided glazed display maximises product visibility without additional effort
- Adjustable shelving accommodates varied product sizes and formats
- Compact countertop footprint suits limited front-of-house space
- White finish suits lighter retail settings and café counters
Installation is straightforward — this is a plug-in unit requiring a standard 13A socket, with no specialist electrical work needed. At 33.2kg it can be positioned by one person without difficulty. Because it is a self-contained refrigerator using R600a refrigerant, there is no pipework or water connection required. Allow adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation, and ensure the surface it sits on is level and capable of supporting the weight.
The C-Series is best suited to sandwich shops, delicatessens, small cafés, mobile catering units, and similar retail environments with moderate throughput. It is not the right choice for sites that need continuous high-volume access, or where the unit will be heavily relied upon during long, busy service periods. For those environments, a more heavy-duty display refrigerator from a higher-capacity range would be a better fit.
If you are unsure whether the capacity or duty rating matches your setup, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.
£1,883.00(£2,259.60 inc VAT)
The Polar U-Series deli display fridge is a 900mm-wide, open-front-style refrigerated merchandiser designed for displaying chilled food and drinks in customer-facing environments. With 285 litres of usable capacity and rear sliding doors, it allows serving staff to restock quickly without disrupting the display or the temperature inside the cabinet.
Forced air cooling circulates chilled air evenly throughout the cabinet, which helps maintain consistent holding temperatures between 2°C and 8°C even during busy service periods when doors are frequently opened and closed. The unit is rated to Climate Class 4, meaning it is designed to operate reliably in ambient conditions up to 32°C — a practical consideration for kitchens, service counters, and front-of-house areas that can become warm during a full service. Recovery after door opening is generally prompt, which matters when you are replenishing stock regularly through a lunch or evening rush.
From an operational standpoint, the cabinet is built around a few features that translate directly into day-to-day practicality:
- Triple-glazed anti-fog glass on all four sides maintains visibility and reduces condensation without requiring manual attention
- Internal LED lighting draws attention to the display and runs at low energy cost
- Black glass shelving provides a clean backdrop that suits a wide range of product types
- Stainless steel construction supports straightforward cleaning and stands up to a busy service environment
- B energy rating keeps running costs measurably lower than older or lower-rated equivalents
Installation is relatively straightforward — the unit runs on a standard electrical supply and uses R290 refrigerant, which has a very low global warming potential and is increasingly the standard for commercial refrigeration. At 183kg, it is a substantial piece of equipment and will need adequate floor loading and a stable, level surface. Allow sufficient clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation; restricted airflow will affect both performance and longevity. The 900mm footprint suits a wide range of counter and floor positions, though it is worth confirming available space before ordering.
This cabinet is well suited to cafés, delis, sandwich bars, convenience stores, hotel breakfast counters, and similar customer-facing settings where visual merchandising of chilled products matters. It works best in environments with moderate-to-high footfall where consistent display temperature and product presentation are both priorities. For very high-volume operations or larger counter runs, higher-capacity alternatives are available in the range.
If you are unsure whether this cabinet suits your counter layout, service volume, or ambient conditions, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£403.00(£483.60 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series curved door display fridge is a compact countertop refrigeration unit designed for front-of-house use in cafés, sandwich shops, convenience counters, and similar environments. With an 86-litre capacity and a black finish with curved glass doors, it provides clear product visibility without occupying significant counter space. It operates across a temperature range suited to chilled drinks, packaged snacks, sandwiches, and prepared foods.
In practice, this is a unit designed for steady, moderate-paced service rather than high-turnover, high-volume operations. The C-Series is Polar's entry-level commercial display refrigeration range, built for environments where the cabinet is restocked periodically rather than continuously throughout service. It holds temperature reliably in ambient conditions up to 32°C (climate class 4), which covers most standard front-of-house settings, though it would not be appropriate in poorly ventilated or particularly hot back-of-house areas.
Practically, the dual-access design — front and rear doors — makes restocking and cleaning straightforward without disturbing customers. LED lighting keeps displayed products well presented while contributing to the A energy rating, which helps keep running costs reasonable for a unit left on continuously. Temperature is managed via a rear-mounted digital panel, giving staff a straightforward way to make adjustments without specialist knowledge.
- Dual front and rear door access simplifies restocking during service
- A-rated energy efficiency reduces ongoing running costs
- LED lighting presents chilled products clearly without excessive heat
- Digital rear panel allows simple, accurate temperature adjustment
- Compact footprint suits high-footfall counter positions
Installation is uncomplicated — the unit requires only a standard mains socket and adequate counter space. At 36.5kg it can be positioned and repositioned without heavy lifting equipment, though clearance around the unit for ventilation should be observed. It is not intended for built-in installation.
This fridge suits smaller independent operators — cafés, delis, sandwich bars, farm shops — where a single countertop unit covers display needs. For busier sites requiring more capacity, more frequent restocking, or operation in warmer ambient conditions, a larger or more heavy-duty display cabinet may be worth considering.
If you're unsure whether this unit matches your service volume or environment, we're happy to talk through the options before you commit.
£1,411.00(£1,693.20 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series 1200Ltr is a large-format upright display refrigerator built for commercial use. It holds up to twenty 2/1 GN trays at 100mm depth, making it directly compatible with standard gastronorm prep workflows without the need for adapters or workarounds. Double-glazed doors give staff a clear view of the cabinet contents, and a digital controller allows temperature to be monitored and adjusted throughout the day. The stainless steel exterior is practical in working kitchen conditions where surfaces take regular wear and cleaning.
Fan-assisted cooling distributes chilled air evenly across the cabinet, which helps maintain consistent temperatures across all shelf levels rather than concentrating cold air at the base. The unit carries a climate class 4 rating, meaning it is designed to operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to 32°C — relevant in kitchen environments where heat builds during service. As with any large double-door cabinet, keeping unnecessary door openings to a minimum during peak periods is sensible practice and will support temperature stability and recovery.
Operationally, this cabinet offers several practical advantages:
- Glass doors allow staff to locate items at a glance, reducing open-door time during service
- Full 2/1 GN compatibility means standard gastronorm trays load directly, simplifying batch prep and storage
- Digital temperature control gives a clear, reliable read on cabinet conditions at all times
- Stainless steel construction withstands the cleaning routines and surface demands of a working kitchen
- R290 refrigerant carries a low global warming potential, supporting environmental compliance requirements
At 180kg and 1340mm wide, this is a substantial unit that requires careful placement planning. The floor must be firm and level, and access routes to the installation point need to accommodate the cabinet's full footprint and height. Adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser is important — restricted airflow will affect both performance and the longevity of the refrigeration system. The unit operates on a single-phase supply; it is worth confirming available circuit capacity before installation, particularly where the location already carries a significant electrical load.
This cabinet is well suited to central production kitchens, hotel back-of-house, large restaurant prep areas, and food retail environments such as delis, farm shops, or larger cafés where high-volume chilled storage needs to sit alongside product visibility. Its 2/1 GN format makes it a natural fit for operations already working to gastronorm standards. Sites with more modest storage needs may find a single-door alternative more appropriate, while very high-throughput operations running multiple cold sections should consider whether a remote-refrigeration unit or walk-in solution would better meet the demand.
If you'd like to talk through whether this cabinet suits your space, volume, or workflow before making a decision, we're happy to help.
£1,497.00(£1,796.40 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series Multideck is a double-door upright display refrigerator designed for front-of-house environments where chilled food and drinks need to be both accessible and visually presented. Operating between 2°C and 8°C with forced air circulation, it maintains consistent temperatures across the full cabinet depth — important when doors are opened repeatedly throughout service.
In high-footfall settings such as café counters, convenience retail areas, hotel grab-and-go stations, and staff canteens, this unit performs reliably across a full trading day. The forced air cooling system recovers quickly after door opening, which matters when a unit is being accessed constantly during busy periods. The self-closing double-glazed hinged doors help limit temperature fluctuation and reduce the energy draw that comes with prolonged door-open events.
From an operational standpoint, the G-Series offers a number of practical advantages:
- Adjustable shelving allows flexible merchandising layouts to suit different product depths and heights
- Colour-changeable LED lighting can be matched to a brand or front-of-house scheme via remote control
- Lockable doors give operators basic security control outside trading hours
- Automatic defrost reduces manual maintenance requirements
- The R290 refrigerant and energy rating of B reflect a reasonable efficiency position for a unit of this capacity
At 187kg and with a footprint just over 1.2 metres wide, the G-Series requires a solid, level surface and adequate clearance for ventilation — typically to the rear and above the unit. It runs on standard single-phase power. It is not suitable for environments without stable ambient conditions; the climate class 4 rating confirms suitability for spaces up to 43°C, but performance will be best maintained in a well-ventilated front-of-house area rather than a hot back-of-house kitchen.
This unit is well suited to cafés, delis, hotel lobbies, workplace canteens, and convenience-style food service operations where chilled grab-and-go ranging is a core part of the offer. For smaller operations or tighter floor plans, a narrower single-door multideck may be more appropriate. For high-volume retail environments with rapid product turnover, a higher-capacity or more heavily specified unit may serve better.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your space, your floor loading, or your service volume, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£1,080.00(£1,296.00 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series upright display cooler is a large-format sliding door refrigeration unit designed for food retail environments where both product visibility and chilling capacity matter. Available here in a black painted steel and glass finish with an integrated overhead light box, it holds up to 950 litres across ten adjustable shelves and operates within a temperature range suited to chilled dairy, prepared foods, soft drinks, and similar ambient-sensitive product lines.
In a busy retail setting — a farm shop, convenience store, deli, or food hall — this unit is built to run continuously through trading hours without the performance drop you sometimes see with lighter-duty coolers. The R290 refrigerant keeps the environmental footprint modest, and the climate class 4 rating means it can handle warm ambient conditions reliably, which matters in spaces without air conditioning or with high footfall generating heat. The sliding doors reduce cold air loss compared to a hinged design, which supports more stable temperatures when customers are browsing frequently.
From a practical standpoint, the unit offers several day-to-day advantages:
- Sliding doors minimise aisle obstruction and cold air spillage during high-traffic periods
- The overhead light box draws attention to the unit's contents and can carry branding or product signage
- Ten adjustable shelves allow flexible product ranging — useful when seasonal lines change regularly
- The black finish suits modern retail fit-outs without requiring additional cladding or styling
- R290 refrigerant keeps the unit compliant with current environmental standards
At 177kg and with a footprint of 1200mm wide by 730mm deep, this is a substantial unit that will need a stable, level floor surface and adequate clearance at the rear for ventilation. It runs on a standard single-phase supply, but the load should be factored into your electrical planning if you are running multiple display units in the same space. It is worth confirming your floor loading capacity and ceiling height ahead of delivery given both the weight and the 2036mm overall height. This unit is designed for retail display use, not for back-of-house storage.
The G-Series cooler at this capacity suits operators who need a prominent display with genuine range — enough shelf space to carry a full chilled selection without rotating stock constantly. It works well as a standalone display or as part of a wider refrigerated run. Smaller operations with limited floor space or lower throughput may find a more compact unit sufficient, while larger sites running high volumes across multiple categories may want to look at heavier-duty or wider multi-door configurations.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your floor plan, your electrical supply, or your product mix, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit to anything.
£2,188.00(£2,625.60 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series Multideck is a large-format, triple hinged-door display refrigerator designed for chilled merchandising in high-footfall environments. At 1830mm wide with a 1156-litre interior, it provides substantial shelf space across twelve adjustable levels — practical for operators who need to display a wide range of chilled products without compromising accessibility or visual appeal.
Forced air cooling circulates refrigerated air consistently throughout the cabinet, which matters in busy service periods when doors are opened frequently. The unit maintains temperatures reliably across all shelf positions rather than relying on static cold zones, so products at the back of lower shelves stay as well-chilled as those at the front. The R290 refrigerant is a low-global-warming-potential option, and the climate class 4 rating means the unit is suited to warmer ambient environments — relevant for front-of-house locations where air conditioning may be variable.
From an operational standpoint, this unit is built around practical daily use:
- Self-closing, double-glazed lockable doors reduce cold loss between service periods and support basic security overnight
- Automatic defrost means no manual intervention during trading hours
- Colour-changeable LED lighting via remote control allows the display to be adjusted to suit the surrounding environment or brand aesthetic
- The digital controller is straightforward to read and adjust without specialist knowledge
- Adjustable shelving accommodates varying product heights without the need for additional fittings
At 260kg and just under two metres tall, this is a substantial piece of equipment. It will need a clear, level floor space, adequate rear and side clearance for ventilation, and a suitable electrical supply. Given the footprint, access routes during delivery should be checked in advance. It is intended for indoor, front-of-house or back-of-house positioning rather than outdoor or uncontrolled temperature environments.
This unit is well suited to supermarkets, convenience stores, delicatessens, hotel buffet areas, and busy café or restaurant front-of-house settings where a large volume of chilled product needs to be displayed accessibly. For smaller sites or those with restricted floor space, a narrower two-door configuration may be more appropriate. For operations requiring an even larger display run, it is worth discussing multi-unit layouts or higher-capacity alternatives before committing.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your space or service requirements, the team at Advantage is happy to talk it through before you place an order.
£534.00(£640.80 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series 368-litre upright display fridge is a single-door refrigerated merchandiser finished in black painted steel with a double-glazed, lockable front door. It is designed to keep chilled drinks, bottled products, and cold food items at a consistent serving temperature while keeping the contents clearly visible to customers. The reversible door allows some flexibility in how the unit is positioned within a space.
In a busy service environment — a café counter, deli, or small retail unit — this fridge performs reliably throughout the day. It is rated for climates up to 32°C (Climate Class 4), which means it can maintain its operating temperature range in warmer front-of-house conditions without struggling. The digital control panel makes it straightforward to monitor and adjust the cabinet temperature without opening the door, which helps maintain consistent conditions during peak trading periods.
From a day-to-day operational perspective, the practical advantages are worth noting:
- Four adjustable shelves allow stock to be organised by product height or rotation requirements
- Castors make repositioning for cleaning more manageable, even at 134kg when loaded
- Removable shelves simplify deep cleaning without tools
- The lockable door is useful in shared or public-access areas where stock security matters
- The black finish suits darker or more design-conscious front-of-house settings where a standard stainless unit may feel out of place
Installation is straightforward — this is a freestanding plug-in unit with no specialist services required beyond a standard power supply. It does need adequate clearance around the condenser to dissipate heat effectively, so avoid positioning it flush against a wall or enclosed within tight joinery. The cabinet weight (134kg) is worth factoring in if the unit needs to be moved between floors or through narrow access points during installation.
This fridge is well suited to cafés, sandwich bars, delis, convenience retail, and similar front-of-house environments where product visibility drives sales. It is not intended for back-of-house bulk cold storage or high-volume kitchen preparation. For sites needing greater capacity or multi-door configurations, larger alternatives are available within the range.
If you are unsure whether this cabinet suits your layout, ambient conditions, or stock volume, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£455.00(£546.00 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series is a compact countertop refrigerated merchandiser designed for short-term chilled display of pre-packaged food and drinks. It is commonly used at point of sale in cafés, delis, sandwich bars, hotel lobbies, and similar hospitality settings where customers serve themselves from a chilled cabinet positioned within easy reach.
The unit maintains a temperature range of 2°C to 6°C, making it appropriate for displaying pre-packed sandwiches, cold drinks, yoghurts, desserts, and similar chilled snacks. The front-hinged glass door keeps contents visible and accessible to customers while providing a physical barrier against ambient contamination — an advantage over fully open-fronted units, which can lose temperature more readily during busy periods and introduce hygiene considerations in high-footfall areas.
From an operational standpoint, the G-Series offers a number of practical advantages for front-of-house use:
- Digital temperature control at the rear allows straightforward adjustment to suit the contents being displayed
- Stainless steel and glass construction supports easy cleaning and daily maintenance
- The hinged door helps retain cold air between customer interactions, contributing to more consistent temperatures
- Compact footprint allows placement on counters, servery units, or near till points without major disruption to existing layouts
- R600a refrigerant and a B energy rating reflect reasonably efficient operation for a unit of this class
One consideration worth noting: this unit is designed for short-term chilled display rather than extended overnight or 24-hour storage. If your operation requires a merchandiser to hold stock across long periods or in a warmer ambient environment, it is worth discussing whether a higher-specification unit would be more appropriate for your setup.
The G-Series suits smaller sites and lower-volume point-of-sale positions well. For busier operations carrying a broader range of chilled products, or where the cabinet will be under near-constant use throughout service, a larger or heavier-duty merchandiser may serve better in the long run.
If you are unsure whether this unit matches your throughput, environment, or display requirements, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
£161.00(£193.20 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series is a compact under-counter display refrigerator designed to merchandise chilled drinks, bottled products and desserts in front-of-house environments. With a full-length glass door and internal lighting, it keeps product visible to customers without requiring them to open the unit — which helps maintain a stable cabinet temperature during busy periods.
In operational terms, this is a unit suited to low-to-moderate volume sites rather than high-throughput venues. The insulated double-glazed door and R600a refrigerant system support consistent temperature holding across the usable range, and the reversible door hinge gives some flexibility during installation when counter layouts are tight. Two adjustable shelves plus a half shelf allow for mixed bottle heights and packaged goods, which is useful where the product range changes seasonally or by service period.
Practical benefits for operators include:
- Digital temperature controls that are straightforward to set and monitor
- Adjustable shelving to accommodate bottles, cans and packaged desserts side by side
- Reversible door hinge for flexible counter placement
- Low running wattage, keeping energy consumption modest for a unit in continuous use
- White finish that suits front-of-house settings without looking out of place
The unit is designed to sit within a standard under-counter space and does not require any plumbing or drainage connection. It runs on a standard 13A plug, so no dedicated electrical supply is needed. That said, adequate ventilation around the unit is important — installing it in a fully enclosed space without airflow will affect performance and longevity. The carbon steel construction is appropriate for front-of-house use but is not intended for high-humidity back-of-house environments.
This fridge is well suited to small cafes, coffee shops, bar counters, hotel reception areas and similar settings where a compact merchandising unit is needed alongside a till or service point. For sites needing greater capacity or higher daily door-opening frequency, larger display cabinet options are available within the range.
If you are unsure whether this unit matches your counter layout or service volume, we are happy to talk it through before you place an order.
£992.00(£1,190.40 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series 600 litre upright display fridge is a single-door, front-of-house refrigeration unit designed to merchandise chilled drinks and food in environments where visual presentation matters. It operates within a 2°C to 8°C temperature range, making it suitable for pre-packaged food, bottled drinks, dairy and similar chilled lines. The white finish and full-height double-glazed door give it a clean, unobtrusive appearance that fits comfortably in cafés, delis, convenience retail and similar settings.
In practice, this unit is intended for moderate-traffic locations rather than high-volume catering operations. It is not a workhorse back-of-house fridge — it is designed to hold and display product that is restocked periodically throughout the day. Four adjustable shelves provide reasonable flexibility for different product heights, and the internal lighting keeps product visible to customers without additional display investment. The digital temperature display on the control panel means staff can carry out a quick visual check without opening the door, which helps maintain consistent cabinet temperature during service.
Key practical advantages include:
- A-rated energy performance, which keeps running costs lower over time
- R600a refrigerant with a low global warming potential of 3
- Double-glazed door reduces condensation and thermal loss when browsing
- Digital temperature readout supports basic due-diligence monitoring
- White finish suits front-of-house environments where aesthetics are considered
Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type. It runs on a standard single-phase supply and uses R600a refrigerant, which is common in lighter-duty display refrigeration. At 93kg, two people should handle delivery and positioning. It is rated for ambient conditions up to 32°C, which covers most UK front-of-house environments, though sites with poor ventilation or consistently high ambient temperatures should factor this in. Allow adequate clearance at the rear and above for airflow. This is not suited to heavy catering kitchen environments where door access is frequent and recovery demands are high.
This unit is well suited to cafés, sandwich counters, small convenience stores, waiting areas and similar settings where the primary need is to display and hold chilled product attractively. It is not the right choice for sites with very high footfall requiring constant restocking, or for any application requiring blast-chilled or cook-chill storage. For more demanding service environments, a higher-capacity or gastronorm-compatible model would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your space or trading volume, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.

The Polar G-Series is a single-door upright display fridge designed to keep chilled drinks, packaged foods, and similar products both visible and accessible to customers. The white painted steel cabinet and full-height glazed door make it a practical option for operators who need refrigeration to function as a merchandising tool alongside a storage unit — particularly in front-of-house or retail-facing settings.
Consistent temperature holding is as important as presentation in a busy service environment. Rated to climate class 4, this unit is built to maintain its working temperature reliably in ambient conditions up to 32°C — a relevant consideration for service counters, café floors, and food retail spaces that warm up considerably during trading hours. The digital control panel allows straightforward temperature monitoring and adjustment without complicated menus, which helps staff manage the unit confidently during service.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the unit offers several practical advantages:
- Lockable double-glazed door limits temperature loss and assists with stock security
- Four adjustable shelves allow flexible arrangement across different bottle heights and pack sizes
- White finish sits comfortably in front-of-house settings where appearance alongside function matters
- R600a refrigerant supports efficient running costs and carries a relatively low environmental impact
- Upright format maximises product visibility while keeping the floor footprint manageable
Installation is straightforward — the unit requires a standard mains power connection and adequate clearance around the condenser for ventilation. At 134kg, positioning will require two people and clear access through doorways. It is not suitable for outdoor use or unheated storage areas where ambient temperatures drop significantly below the climate class 4 operating range.
This fridge is well suited to cafés, delis, convenience counters, small hotels, and food-to-go operations where chilled product display directly supports sales. It is a mid-capacity unit — operators running high-turnover sites with a large chilled range may find a higher-capacity upright a better fit, while smaller countertop display units are available for lower-volume requirements.
If you would like to talk through whether this unit is the right fit for your space and service setup before ordering, our team is glad to help.

The Polar G-Series 950-litre upright display cooler is a double-door refrigerated merchandising unit designed to keep chilled products visible, accessible, and held at a consistent serving temperature. It uses R290 refrigerant, operates within a 2°C to 6°C range, and includes an integrated LED light box that illuminates the cabinet interior and draws attention to the displayed products. The white painted steel finish suits environments where a clean, neutral aesthetic is required.
In busy food retail and service settings, a unit of this capacity handles substantial product rotation without constant restocking. The hinged double-door configuration allows staff to access either side of the cabinet independently, which helps maintain temperature stability during service — opening one door does not expose the full interior. LED lighting runs cooler than fluorescent alternatives, which reduces unnecessary heat load on the refrigeration system and contributes to the unit's B energy rating.
From an operational standpoint, this cabinet offers several practical advantages:
- Large 950-litre capacity supports high product volume and reduces restocking frequency
- LED light box improves product visibility and encourages customer engagement
- Hinged doors allow independent access to each section, limiting temperature loss
- R290 refrigerant is low global-warming-potential and increasingly preferred for compliance purposes
- White painted steel finish is straightforward to wipe down and maintain
At 177kg and standing over two metres tall, this unit requires a level, load-bearing floor and sufficient overhead clearance. It needs a standard single-phase mains supply and adequate ambient ventilation around the cabinet — R290 units have specific clearance requirements due to the flammable nature of the refrigerant, so installation should follow the manufacturer's guidance carefully. The climate class 4 rating means it is suitable for ambient environments up to 43°C, which covers most UK commercial kitchen and retail settings. It is worth confirming your floor space and access routes before delivery, as the footprint and weight make repositioning after installation impractical.
This unit is well suited to cafés, delis, convenience retailers, hotel buffet areas, and front-of-house food service operations where chilled product display is central to the offer. For very high-volume environments with rapid stock turnover, or for back-of-house storage where display is not a priority, different configurations may be worth considering. Similarly, operators with limited floor space may find a smaller single-door unit more appropriate.
If you are weighing up whether this cabinet fits your layout or service requirements, we are happy to work through the practicalities with you before you commit.
