Showcase 385 Litre Neutral Display Cabinet

A neutral temperature display cabinet keeps prepared food at room temperature, protecting it from airborne contaminants while allowing customers to see the items clearly. The unit does not heat or chill; it relies on the ambient environment of the kitchen or service area to maintain a steady, unaltered climate inside the sealed cabinet. This method suits foods that are served at room temperature—sandwiches, pastries, salads and plated desserts—where refrigeration would dull flavours or textures and heating is unnecessary or undesirable.

The operator loads the food onto the internal shelves or trays, then closes the glass doors to create a sealed display. The cabinet remains on continuously, drawing a small electrical load to power the internal lighting and any circulation fan that prevents condensation on the glass. No temperature setting is required; the unit simply buffers the food against sudden draughts or temperature swings in the room. When an item is needed, the door is opened, the item removed, and the door closed again to restore the seal.

Construction is a stainless-steel frame with double-glazed doors and sides for maximum visibility. The 385 litre volume provides ample shelf space for a full service of plated items or bulk containers. The 850 mm width fits standard worktop depths, while the 65 kg weight allows two staff to reposition the unit when the kitchen layout changes. A 230 V single-phase supply is all that is required, matching the standard circuit found in most professional kitchens.

Cleaning involves wiping the glass with a non-abrasive cleaner and removing the shelves to wash in a sink. The neutral temperature means no defrost cycle or condensate tray is needed, reducing daily upkeep.

The catalogue places this model in the ambient display section, alongside heated and refrigerated showcases.
