Polar G-Series 4 Drawer Counter Fridge 240Ltr

The Polar G-Series four drawer counter fridge provides under-counter chilled storage designed for the pace and demands of a working commercial kitchen. Built around a drawer configuration rather than a conventional door, it gives kitchen staff rapid, direct access to chilled ingredients at the point of preparation — without the need to swing a door open in a tight or busy pass.

In a service environment, the drawer format makes a meaningful difference. Sections can be pulled open and closed quickly and cleanly, reducing the time a compartment is exposed to ambient air. The unit is rated to operate in ambient temperatures up to 32°C (Climate Class 4), which makes it suitable for kitchens where the cooking environment is naturally warm. Recovery after frequent access is consistent, helping to keep chilled contents within the 2°C to 5°C dairy range throughout a busy shift.

The G-Series range is built for daily commercial use rather than light or intermittent operation. The stainless steel exterior handles cleaning well and withstands the knocks and contact that come with a working kitchen environment. Practical advantages operators tend to value include:

• Drawer access reduces accidental door contact and speeds up ingredient retrieval
• Full-size 1/1 GN pan compatibility across all four drawers keeps prep organised
• Digital temperature control allows straightforward monitoring without interpretation
• Stainless steel construction wipes down quickly between services
• R600a refrigerant offers lower environmental impact relative to older refrigerant types

Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type, though at 74kg it will require two people to position safely. It sits at counter height and is designed to slot into a standard under-counter run. Ensure adequate clearance for ventilation at the rear and that the floor surface is level — uneven floors can affect door and drawer seals over time. A standard 13A connection is sufficient. This unit is not suitable as a walk-in replacement or for high-volume cold storage; it is designed to support a prep or pass station, not to serve as primary bulk refrigeration.

This unit is well suited to small to medium kitchens, café operations, sandwich bars, pub kitchens, and any setting where a dedicated prep fridge with organised, accessible drawer storage would improve workflow. For sites running a high-volume pass or requiring substantially greater chilled capacity, a larger or higher-specification unit may be more appropriate.
