IGLOO CUBE OPEN 1310 mm Warm Confectionery Showcase CU101.3OP-c

A warm showcase keeps delicate confectionery at serving temperature without drying or over-browning. The IGLOO CUBE OPEN 1310 mm model circulates gently warmed air through a ventilated system, maintaining an even climate across every shelf. This dynamic cooling prevents hot spots that can spoil chocolate coatings or soften pastry layers, while the low wattage element ensures the air stays within the narrow band that keeps cakes moist and glazes glossy.

To use the showcase, the operator powers it on and sets the electronic regulator to the desired temperature between +5 and +15 °C. The unit automatically defrosts and evaporates condensate, so no manual draining is needed. Once the temperature stabilises, the three glass shelves can be adjusted in height and angle to create tiers of display. Each shelf has its own LED strip, angled to illuminate pastries from above and cast soft highlights on glazes and decorations. The front glass rises 120 mm, allowing customers to view the products while keeping them safely enclosed.

The outer casing is black coated steel for durability and easy cleaning, while the side panels are available in either full glass or a combined glass-and-steel design. The front panel is wooden melamine in a choice of finishes from the IGLOO pattern book, and the inner frame can be painted silver, gold or black to match the kitchen's colour scheme. Ecological polyurethane foam insulation reduces energy loss, and the external refrigeration unit keeps the main cabinet uncluttered and quiet.

The 0.154 kW power rating means the showcase draws minimal current, suitable for a standard 230 V single-phase circuit found in most professional kitchens. Its footprint of 1310 × 835 mm fits along a worktop or against a wall, while the 1380 mm height allows staff to load and unload without stooping. The weight of the unit ensures stability on the floor, and the smooth-coated surfaces resist fingerprints and smudges.

Cleaning involves wiping the glass shelves and melamine surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The automatic defrost and condenser evaporation systems remove the need for manual tray emptying, and the LED lighting requires no bulb replacement. Side panels and front panels can be ordered in alternative colours from the IGLOO pattern book to refresh the display without replacing the entire unit.
