Overview
The SPZ Undercounter Refrigerator is a low-line commercial fridge designed to fit directly beneath a prep bench, pass or back-bar counter. It turns otherwise unused space under your worktop into cold storage for the ingredients your team reaches for constantly, cutting the walking and cross-kitchen trips that slow down a busy service.
Built from stainless steel with fan-forced cooling, it holds a steady chilled temperature across the whole cabinet and stands up to the knocks of a working line. Depending on configuration it comes with hinged doors or refrigerated drawers, adjustable shelves and, on many models, castors so the unit can be rolled out for cleaning or reconfigured as your layout changes.
For Singapore kitchens where floor space is tight and rents are high, the undercounter format is a workhorse: it adds capacity without adding footprint, keeps mise en place at the point of use, and integrates cleanly into a stainless bench line for a professional, easy-to-clean finish.
Key features
- Low-line height designed to sit beneath standard prep counters
- Stainless steel construction for durability and easy wipe-down cleaning
- Fan-forced cooling for even chilling across the cabinet
- Door or drawer configurations to suit different prep workflows
- Adjustable shelves and, on many models, castors for mobility
- Digital thermostat with automatic defrost for low-fuss running
Ideal applications
Ideal for prep stations, cold kitchens, sandwich and salad lines, bars and coffee counters where keeping dairy, garnishes, mixers and portioned ingredients cold and close to hand speeds up every order. It also serves well as supplementary storage beside a grill or fryer section.
Where a section needs frequent access to portioned items, a drawer configuration keeps everything visible and reachable without bending into a deep cabinet.

Frequently asked questions
What is an undercounter refrigerator used for?
An undercounter refrigerator is a low-height commercial fridge that fits beneath a prep bench or bar counter to keep frequently used ingredients chilled at the point of use. It reduces trips to the walk-in during service, adds capacity without extra floor space, and integrates into a stainless bench line for a tidy, hygienic finish.
Should I choose doors or drawers?
Doors give you flexible shelf space for mixed and taller items, while refrigerated drawers keep portioned pans visible and reachable without bending into a deep cabinet. Many kitchens mix both across a line. Choose drawers for high-turnover mise en place at a station and doors for general chilled storage under the bench.
Does it come with castors?
Many undercounter models are supplied with castors so the unit can be rolled out for cleaning behind and underneath, then locked in place during service. Leg or plinth options are also available where a fixed, sealed installation is preferred. Confirm the base configuration for your chosen model before ordering.
How much space should I leave for ventilation?
Undercounter fridges need clear airflow around the condenser to run efficiently in a warm kitchen. Follow the manufacturer's clearance guidance, keep the ventilation grille unobstructed, and avoid boxing the unit in tightly against heat sources such as ovens or fryers. Regularly cleaning the condenser also helps maintain performance.
