The Foster FPS 2 HR is a refrigerated preparation counter combining an under-counter storage cabinet with a chilled top section designed to hold gastronorm pans. It keeps fresh ingredients at safe working temperatures and within easy reach throughout service — a practical arrangement for any kitchen running dish assembly from multiple fresh components. This style of unit is commonly referred to as a saladette or prep station, and it is a standard fixture in pizza operations, sandwich bars, salad stations, and starter or dessert prep lines.
In a working kitchen, the real test of a prep station is how consistently it holds temperature when lids are being lifted repeatedly during a busy service. The FPS 2 HR uses a revised airflow design that maintains a stable chill across the pan section even under active use, reducing the risk of temperature drift and the food safety concerns that can follow. The rear-mounted refrigeration unit keeps the storage interior clear and makes the unit more accessible when routine servicing is required.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the unit addresses several practical requirements at once:
- Chilled pan section at a comfortable working height, reducing fatigue during long service periods
- Inner catch-tray beneath the pan section prevents debris falling into the storage compartment
- 304 stainless steel construction throughout, supporting thorough cleaning and commercial hygiene standards
- Rear-mounted refrigeration unit leaves under-counter storage unobstructed and simplifies engineer access
- Suited to pizza prep, saladette, sandwich assembly, and dessert stations
The unit is freestanding and can sit within a counter run or operate independently. It requires a standard electrical connection and adequate clearance at the rear for ventilation — worth confirming before positioning it tight against a wall or within a close-fitting equipment run. As with any refrigerated prep counter, keeping it away from direct heat sources such as grills or flat-tops will protect efficiency and reduce compressor workload over time.
The FPS 2 HR is well suited to small and medium operations — cafés, pizzerias, delis, pub kitchens, and smaller restaurant prep lines — where a reliable prep station is needed without overspecifying for the covers being served. For higher-volume sites with extended service periods or multiple cooks working the same station, a larger or more heavily specified unit may be worth considering. At the other end, for very low-volume or occasional-use settings, a smaller single-door unit may be a more proportionate choice.
If you are weighing up whether this unit is the right fit for your kitchen layout and workflow, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
Frequently asked questions
Is the FPS 2 HR suitable for a high-volume pizza or food-to-go operation?
The FPS 2 HR is well suited to small and medium-volume sites where a reliable prep station handles consistent but not extreme throughput. For operations with very long service periods, multiple cooks sharing the same station, or unusually high lid-lift frequency, it is worth discussing whether a larger or higher-specification unit would be a better long-term fit.
What does installation involve for this prep counter?
The unit requires a standard single-phase electrical connection and adequate rear clearance for ventilation — the exact clearance requirement is worth confirming before finalising its position in a counter run or against a wall. It should also be sited away from direct heat sources such as grills or flat-top ranges, as sustained ambient heat will increase compressor workload and affect long-term efficiency.
How straightforward is the FPS 2 HR to keep clean day to day?
The 304 stainless steel construction throughout makes routine cleaning straightforward, and the inner catch-tray beneath the pan section helps contain debris before it reaches the storage compartment below. The rear-mounted refrigeration unit also means there are no components obstructing the interior, which makes deep cleans and engineer access easier than on front-mounted alternatives.
