True TSSU-60-16-HC Double Door Prep Counter 16 x 1/6GN

The True TSSU-60-16-HC is a refrigerated preparation counter designed for high-throughput pizza, saladette, and cold ingredient stations in commercial kitchens. It combines a two-door undercounter refrigerated cabinet with a recessed top rail holding sixteen sixth-gastronorm pans, giving kitchen teams immediate access to cold ingredients at the point of assembly without breaking workflow.

In busy service environments, the value of this type of unit lies in keeping ingredients organised, accessible, and consistently chilled throughout a shift. True's refrigeration systems are well regarded for maintaining stable holding temperatures even during sustained use, which matters when a prep station is being opened and closed repeatedly during a peak service. The undercounter cabinet provides the bulk cold storage that feeds the pan rail above, reducing the number of trips to a separate fridge and keeping the assembly area self-contained.

From an operational standpoint, the TSSU-60-16-HC offers several practical advantages for kitchen teams:

• Sixteen 1/6GN pan positions support a wide variety of ingredients simultaneously, reducing restocking interruptions during service
• The combined cabinet and pan rail format keeps bulk and portioned ingredients in a single footprint
• Robust construction consistent with True's commercial build standards holds up under daily kitchen use
• Recessed pan rail design helps maintain ingredient temperatures during open service
• Undercounter format suits tight prep areas where space is limited

Installation requires a suitable electrical supply and adequate clearance for ventilation — True units typically require airflow at the condenser, so placement against a wall or in a tight alcove should be checked against the manufacturer's guidelines before fitting. The unit's footprint suits most medium to large commercial kitchens, though smaller operations should consider whether a single-door or reduced pan capacity unit would be more proportionate to their volume.

This prep counter is particularly well suited to pizzerias, burger restaurants, and cafés running a structured cold assembly operation. It performs well where ingredient variety is high and speed of access during service is a priority. For very high-volume sites running extended service periods or a wider range of ingredients, a larger-format unit with additional pan capacity may be worth considering.

If you're weighing up pan capacity, footprint, or how this unit fits into your prep station layout, the team is happy to work through the options with you before you commit to an order.
