Chest Freezers Are More Useful Than You Would Think
02 Feb

When you think of a Chest Freezer a box type of commercial refrigeration equipment comes to mind. Although this is mostly true, these units are available in various sizes and designs. Plus they can be used by different people or establishments.

Chest Freezers are popular amongst home owners who have to cater for many family members. They need to have enough freezing space to stock meat, chicken and other frozen food items. Such space is essential especially when bulk meat sales take place at certain times during the year and families want to benefit from the discount. For home use, the smaller units such as the 192, 194 or 197 litre options would be more appropriate. In addition, the design of it needs to be aesthetically pleasing. Chest Freezers with granite tops blend right in to a homely kitchen setting. It looks beautiful and like it was meant to be part of the kitchen. They are also available with a white or grey exterior. Depending on your kitchen's size there are varying sizes of units that will fit right into your kitchen space.

For commercial establishments, such as restaurants, hospitals and hotels, Chest Freezers need to be sturdy and durable in order to handle the busy environment. They also need to be larger to store more meat, chicken and food items. Commercial establishments usually need to cater for large numbers of people so they need to ensure that the Chest Freezers are stocked sufficiently to cope with the demand. For this purpose, there are 520 litre and 570 litre options available. Aesthetics are also important in the catering industry therefore having a choice between standard and granite tops or white and grey exterior is a benefit.

Cafés may require a bit more when it comes to Chest Freezers because they sell more enticing little treats such as ice cream or other frozen treats. These treats need to remain frozen but also need to be on display for customers to see them. For this purpose a glass top Chest Freezer is ideal as customers can view the contents before opening the catering equipment. They can view the full array of ice cream and decide which one they want to get. Essentially the café owner wants to entice the customer with the colours of the ice cream wrappers.

Chest Freezers can be used for freezing meat, chicken, fish, vegetables and fruit for home owners and restaurants while it can also be used to keep ice cream, ice lollies and uncooked pies frozen for cafés or food retailers. These items are essential in the hospitality industry.
