  • Smart Prep Flow: The raised collar design significantly speeds up assembly for salads and  sandwiches.
  • Fixed Feet Standard: It comes with feet; you'll want to order the optional castors for easier cleaning.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Northern Bite', a popular lunch spot in Leeds, needed to upgrade their prep line. Their old refrigeration unit was struggling to keep pace with their growing demand for fresh, made-to-order salads and  sandwiches, causing bottlenecks during the critical 12-2 pm rush.

"The Koldbox counter has completely sorted out our workflow. Having every ingredient right there in the collar, perfectly chilled, means we can fly through orders. It’s sturdy, reliable, and  just makes the whole process smoother."

David Chen – Owner, The Northern Bite

The new setup has directly resulted in a 30% reduction in average order completion time during their peak lunch service, allowing them to serve more customers without compromising on quality.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the unit is positioned on a firm, level surface to prevent vibration and  ensure doors close properly.
  • Leave at least 10cm of space around the back and  sides for proper ventilation. The compressor needs to breathe!
  • Once in position, let the unit stand for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.
  • Before loading with food, plug it in and  allow it to reach its operating temperature first.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the interior and  door seals weekly with a food-safe cleaner to maintain hygiene.
  • Locate the removable condenser filter and  clean it once a month. A clogged filter makes the unit work harder and  uses more energy.
  • Check the door gaskets (seals) regularly for any splits or damage, as this can lead to cold air escaping.
  • Avoid leaving the doors open for extended periods to maintain a consistent internal temperature.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Prep Counter

Not sure if this is the perfect prep station for you? Here are a few key things to consider when choosing your next piece of kit.

Size and  Footprint

Measure your space carefully! Ensure you have enough room for the unit itself, plus space for ventilation and  for staff to move around it comfortably.

Gastronorm Compatibility

If you already use Gastronorm pans, check that the counter is compatible with the sizes you use most. This Koldbox model is perfect for GN1/1 shelves and  a GN1/6 top.

Raised Collar vs. Flat Top

A raised collar (or 'saladette') is ideal for assembly lines (sandwiches, pizza, salads). A flat top offers a larger, uninterrupted workspace for general prep.

Doors or Drawers?

Doors are great for storing larger, bulky items. Drawers offer brilliant organisation for smaller, portioned ingredients, but often come at a higher price point.

Kitchen Environment

Check the 'Climate Class'. Class 4, like this unit, is designed for most UK kitchens with ambient temperatures up to 30°C. Hotter kitchens may need a Class 5 unit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does GN1/1 compatible mean?

A: It means the internal shelving is sized perfectly to hold standard Gastronorm size 1/1 pans (530mm x 325mm), which is the most common size used in UK commercial kitchens.

Q: Does this unit come with the Gastronorm pans for the top?

A: No, the Gastronorm containers for the raised collar are not supplied with the unit, allowing you to customise the configuration to your specific needs.

Q: How do I adjust the temperature?

A: The temperature is easily adjusted using the Dixell digital controller on the front of the unit. Simply use the up and  down arrows to set your desired temperature within the +2°C to +8°C range.

Q: Can this unit be placed directly against a wall?

A: It is not recommended. For optimal performance and  to prevent overheating, you should leave at least a 10cm gap at the back and  sides for air circulation.

Q: Is the stainless steel food-grade?

A: Yes, both the interior and  exterior are made from high-quality, food-safe stainless steel, making it durable and  hygienic.

Q: What does 'Climate Class 4' mean?

A: This indicates the unit is designed to operate efficiently in an environment with ambient temperatures up to 30°C and  55% relative humidity, which is suitable for most professional kitchens.

Q: Are the shelves removable for cleaning?

A: Yes, the three GN1/1 shelves are fully adjustable and  can be easily removed for thorough cleaning.

Q: Does this unit have an automatic defrost function?

A: Yes, commercial refrigerators like this typically include an automatic off-cycle defrost system to prevent ice build-up and  maintain efficiency.

Why R290 Refrigerant is a Smart Choice for Your Kitchen

You might see 'R290 Refrigerant' listed and not think much of it, but it's a feature that offers real, tangible benefits. In simple terms, R290 (a type of propane) is a natural, non-toxic hydrocarbon gas. Think of it like swapping an old, gas-guzzling car for a modern, efficient hybrid. It does the exact same job of keeping your food perfectly chilled, but it's far more efficient and  much kinder to the environment than older refrigerant gases. This superior efficiency means the compressor doesn't have to work as hard, which translates directly into lower electricity bills for your business month after month.

Who Should Buy This?

    This is the ultimate station for assembling fresh sandwiches and  salads with all your ingredients perfectly chilled and  within arm's reach.
