The 10 models – four with removable glass sneeze screens and six with lift-up, stainless steel lids – are available in a range of sizes, with capacities starting at 22 litres, up to 78l. They are all compatible with any combination of 1/3 and 1/2 size gastronorm pans and any variation based on those, meaning operators can customise their display with an assortment of smaller and larger pans to suit requirements.

Aquilo’s countertop prep fridges have numerous applications. They’re ideal for customer-facing establishments, such as sandwich shops, cafés and delis, as well as pizza and burger restaurants. They can be equally useful if placed within a school or workplace servery. Also perfect for dessert, ice cream and smoothie stations.

The prep fridges can be sited on any existing counter or tabling to provide useful, extra refrigeration for ingredients without losing any floor space. Alternatively, they can be positioned on a shelf or even wall-mounted.

The units are static cooled with temperature range options of between +2°C – +8°C and all feature electronic thermostats, with clearly visible LED display. Aquilo’s refrigeration range utilises R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant, considered to be the most eco-friendly option currently available. Prices start at just £471.00 ex VAT.
