Prep counters
Prep counters are essential workstations for takeaway, pizza, and fast-food operations. These refrigerated units combine storage with accessible work surfaces, keeping ingredients at safe temperatures whilst your team assembles orders efficiently.
Choose from single-door compact models for smaller kitchens or multi-door units with granite tops for high-volume pizza, salad, and sandwich preparation. Capacities range from 280L to 566L.
Refrigerated prep counters combine worktop space with built-in cold storage for pizza, salad and bakery assembly. Essential for takeaways, fast-food kitchens and cafés requiring rapid ingredient access at controlled temperature. Key spec: door count and capacity determine throughput and workspace fit.

When selecting a prep counter, consider your kitchen footprint, daily throughput, and ingredient variety. Granite tops offer durability and hygiene for pizza and salad work; standard stainless steel suits general prep. Check door configuration (1, 2, or 3-door) against your workflow and available space.
Most units maintain 2–5°C, ideal for fresh vegetables, meats, cheeses, and prepared fillings. Drawer kits and accessory trays are available separately to customise storage layouts. All models supplied ex VAT with EU delivery to Ireland.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
Common questions
What's the difference between a pizza prep table and a saladette?▾
Pizza prep tables offer larger granite worktops for dough handling and assembly; saladettes are narrower with smaller capacities, designed for salad and cold-food prep in compact spaces.
Will a single-door unit fit a standard takeaway counter line?▾
Single-door units start at 700mm width, fitting tight spaces. Three-door models reach 1700mm. Confirm your available footprint before ordering.
What capacity should I choose for a busy pizza operation?▾
Single-door saladettes hold ~280L; three-door pizza tables exceed 560L. Volume depends on prep frequency and ingredient turnover—higher throughput demands larger capacity.
Are these units single or three-phase power?▾
This data is not supplied. Confirm electrical specification with the manufacturer before purchase to ensure kitchen supply compatibility.
Can I add drawers or accessories to my prep counter?▾
Drawer kits like the Unifrost HLDKS are available separately, allowing customisation. Check compatibility with your specific counter model.
