Chest Freezer Manufacturers; Who To Choose?

The chest freezer, humming away to itself in the corner, is an integral part of any kitchen, whether that kitchen is in a busy restaurant or in the home. Keeping products below freezing point before using them is a serious issue for health and safety, so it is essential that the freezer does its job efficiently at all times.

There are many different brands and types of chest freezer; all have different specifications and styles, but their main aim is always the same. Some famous manufacturers include Fosters, Valera and Gram; all of these (and others) are well known in the catering industry.

Fosters not only produce chest freezers, but a wide range of refrigeration products. Located in Berkshire, they have a serious commitment to the environment and one of their aims is to produce energy saving products as much as possible. Their dedication to this, as well as the stylish designs of their products, has made their refrigeration equipment well renowned in kitchens around the country. Their range of chest freezers with stainless steel lids is not only good to work with, but look excellent in the professional kitchen environment. The lids can also be used as additional workspace when required.

Valera has been in business since 1993 and produce equipment for not only refrigeration, but cooking as well. Their range of chest freezers includes blast freezers, which makes the freezing process quicker when products are still warm (i.e. leftover foods). Their philosophy is 'quality products backed by quality service', and their high levels of customer support certainly prove this to be true. Their popular ranges of chest freezers are spacious and some have hygienic stainless steel lids, which can also be used as workspaces.

Gram, originally a German company, was founded in 1901 by Hans Gram. At first he concentrated on electrical installations and machinery, but by 1960 the company was mass producing freezers and refrigerators. The company has continued to flourish since then, with the years 2002-2005 marking the launch of their low energy products. Their latest products for 2009 include bio storage devices, which is a big innovation in the refrigeration market. They have a wide range of commercial chest freezers available to choose from, with varying capacities and storage space depending on the buyers' need.

Another popular name in the world of chest freezers is Liebherr. Established in 1949, they employ over 32,000 people. This isn't surprising, as their range of products stretches well beyond commercial refrigeration. As suppliers of products ranging from mobile cranes to flight control systems, they are certainly experts in a lot of fields. Going back to their range of chest freezers, they ensure their state of the art technology provides the customer with the ultimate product; low power consumption, attractive looks and long life expectancy are all integral parts of the Liebherr chest freezer design.

With all of these manufacturers competing for sales in the catering market, suppliers of catering equipment do tend to stock a wide range of all of the different brands to give their consumers optimum choice when selecting a chest freezer.
