Saladette counter IGLOO GLP130

A refrigerated salad bar keeps fresh produce at serving temperature while presenting it to customers under bright, even lighting. The internal cooling unit circulates chilled air through a ventilated system, ensuring every shelf maintains the set temperature range without cold spots. Dynamic cooling adjusts airflow to compensate for frequent opening and warm items added during service, so the display stays within the safe zone throughout the day. An automatic defrost cycle runs out of service hours, preventing ice build-up that would reduce efficiency and require manual intervention. Condensation evaporates automatically, eliminating water trays and the need to empty them during shifts.

The operator loads the granite worktop with prepared salads and fruits, arranging them in the stainless-steel display area or on the granite surface itself. GN containers slot into the pre-formed frame beneath the glass top, keeping ingredients organised and accessible. LED lighting illuminates the display from above, highlighting colours and textures without adding heat. The hinged rear door provides access to the storage area behind the display, where additional stock is held at the same temperature. An electronic regulator with a digital display allows precise setting of the target temperature, and a sound signal alerts staff when the condenser requires cleaning.

The outer casing is powder-coated steel, resistant to scratches and easy to wipe down. The front panel and sides are melamine, a hard-wearing laminate that withstands daily contact and cleaning chemicals. A straight-front glass top protects the display while offering an unobstructed view. The storage area beneath the worktop is lined with PES, a smooth, non-porous material that resists staining and bacterial growth. Ecological polyurethane foam insulation fills the walls, maintaining temperature stability and reducing energy consumption.

A power rating of 0.862 kW indicates the load on the electrical circuit, suitable for a standard 230 V single-phase supply found in most professional kitchens. The temperature range of +2 to +8 °C keeps salads and fruits crisp and safe without freezing, extending display life while meeting food safety regulations. The footprint of 1540 mm by 880 mm fits into a standard worktop run, and the height of 1300 mm allows customers to view and select items comfortably. The unit is designed to move as a single piece, with no disassembly required for installation or relocation.

Cleaning follows the construction: the granite worktop and stainless-steel display area wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The melamine panels and powder-coated casing resist moisture and stains, requiring only a wipe-down after service. The glass top lifts or slides for access to the display area beneath. The PES-lined storage area is smooth and seamless, allowing thorough cleaning without trapped debris. The condenser, located behind the hinged rear door, requires periodic vacuuming to remove dust and maintain airflow, triggered by the sound signal when contamination reaches a set level.
