Shelf NN48 for Professional Kitchens

A shelf provides a stable, horizontal surface for storing ingredients, utensils and equipment within easy reach of the worktop. In a professional kitchen, shelves organise space so that every item has a fixed place, reducing clutter and speeding up service. The NN48 is a freestanding unit that stands on its own frame, allowing it to be positioned wherever floor space permits without needing wall brackets or cupboard support.

The shelf is loaded from the front or the side, depending on the layout of the kitchen. Items are placed directly on the flat surface, which is wide enough to hold multiple containers side by side. Because the shelf is open, air circulates freely around stored goods, helping to keep dry ingredients fresh and preventing condensation on chilled items. The height of 1860 mm allows staff to reach the top shelf without a step, while the 450 mm depth keeps everything within arm's length, reducing bending and stretching.

Constructed from stainless steel, the NN48 resists corrosion, heat and moisture, making it suitable for humid or high-temperature environments such as pastry sections or hot-holding areas. The frame and shelf surface are made of the same material, ensuring uniform strength and hygiene. No moving parts or electrical components are present, so the unit requires no power supply or maintenance beyond routine cleaning.

The dimensions of 2200 mm width, 450 mm depth and 1860 mm height determine the footprint and capacity of the shelf. A width of 2200 mm allows the unit to span the length of a standard worktop or fit between two kitchen columns, while the 450 mm depth keeps the shelf shallow enough to avoid obstructing walkways. The 1860 mm height ensures the top shelf remains accessible without a ladder, and the overall size makes the NN48 suitable for storage in dry goods areas, prep stations or behind the counter in front-of-house service.

Cleaning is straightforward: the smooth stainless steel surface can be wiped down with a damp cloth and sanitiser, and the open design means no hidden corners where debris can accumulate. The shelf should be emptied before cleaning to avoid damaging stored items, and the frame should be checked periodically for stability, especially if the unit is moved frequently.

The NN48 is a single model with no variants or adjustable parts. It is designed for general storage in professional catering kitchens and does not require compatibility with other equipment.
