The Polar U-Series three-door saladette counter is a refrigerated prep unit designed to keep fresh ingredients chilled and immediately accessible during service. The worktop accepts full 1/1 GN containers, making it straightforward to organise ingredients by type and rotate stock efficiently. Beneath the worktop, the triple-door base provides substantial refrigerated storage, so you can keep backup supplies close to hand without repeated trips to the main cold room. A square sneeze guard is fitted as standard, which is particularly useful in open or semi-open kitchen environments where ingredients are exposed during service.

In a working kitchen this type of unit earns its keep during back-to-back covers, when prep speed and ingredient organisation directly affect service pace. Forced-air cooling maintains a consistent temperature across the cabinet, which matters when the doors are opened repeatedly throughout a shift. The unit operates within a temperature range that keeps perishables well within safe food-temperature guidelines, and recovery after door opening is reliable enough to sustain that through a busy lunch or dinner service.

From an operational standpoint, the main practical advantages are:

  • Ingredients held at prep temperature, ready to use without additional handling
  • GN-compatible top simplifies portioning and portion consistency
  • Sneeze guard offers a practical hygiene barrier in exposed prep areas
  • Stainless steel construction throughout supports straightforward daily cleaning
  • Triple-door base maximises storage close to the point of preparation

Installation is relatively uncomplicated — the unit requires a standard single-phase electrical supply and sufficient clearance around the condenser for airflow. At 106kg it will need appropriate floor loading consideration and adequate access through doorways during installation. The unit is sized for a permanent position on the kitchen line rather than occasional repositioning, so plan its location carefully before installation. GN containers are not supplied with the unit and will need to be sourced separately.

This counter is well suited to pizzerias, sandwich bars, salad-focused operations and any kitchen where high-turnover fresh ingredients need to be organised and accessible on the line. The three-door format and 456Ltr capacity make it a practical choice for medium to high-volume sites. For lower-volume kitchens or tighter spaces, a smaller single- or two-door saladette may be more appropriate, while very high-volume operations handling significant throughput may find a heavier-duty preparation counter better suited to their demands.

If you're planning a new prep line or fitting this into an existing kitchen layout, our team is happy to talk through whether this unit suits your service volumes and available space before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Is this saladette suitable for a high-volume pizza operation running two sittings a day?

For a busy pizza kitchen running back-to-back services, the three-door format and 456Ltr capacity should provide adequate on-line ingredient storage for most mid-to-high-volume operations. The forced-air cooling helps maintain consistent temperatures even with repeated door opening during peak service, though very high-volume sites or those with an exceptionally wide topping range may find it worth discussing whether a larger or more heavy-duty prep counter would better suit their throughput.

What are the installation requirements for this unit?

The unit requires a standard single-phase electrical supply and adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser to operate efficiently — restricting airflow will affect cooling performance. At 106kg, floor loading and access routes should be assessed before delivery, and given its dimensions it should be positioned as a permanent fixture on the kitchen line rather than moved regularly.

Do GN containers come included, and what size do I need?

GN containers are sold separately and are not included with the unit. The top is sized for full 1/1 GN containers, though smaller fractional GN inserts can of course be used within those positions to organise different ingredients — a standard practice in most pizza and salad prep kitchens.
