Reach-in Refrigerator for hospital kitchens and ward pantries

Main diet-kitchen storage for raw stock, dairy, prepared therapeutic diets and cooked food waiting for ward dispatch.

The diet kitchen holds far more categories of food than a restaurant: raw stock, dairy, prepared soft and liquid diets, cooked food for each ward round, and special items prescribed by the dietetics team. Multi-section upright reach-ins let the kitchen give each category its own compartment, which is the simplest defence against mix-ups and cross-contamination. Stainless interiors and removable shelves make the frequent cleaning that infection control expects easier. Because the kitchen runs around the clock and a failure overnight could go unnoticed, temperature displays, loggers and alarms are more valuable here than in almost any other kitchen.

How to configure it

  • Assign sections by category: raw stock, dairy, prepared diets, cooked food for dispatch.
  • Label diet items with patient, ward, diet type and time prepared.
  • Fit temperature loggers with alarms that alert someone on night duty.
  • Choose stainless interiors and shelves that come out easily for cleaning.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Storing prepared diets for different wards on the same shelf without labels.
  • Allowing non-food items, such as samples or medicines, into kitchen refrigerators.

The reach-in range

Upright stainless cabinets in one-, two- and three-section builds, with full or half doors. Refrigerator, freezer, dual-temperature and convertible versions share the same body, so a kitchen can standardise on one footprint and one set of spares.
