LOTUS PLT-78X Worktop with Stainless Steel Drawer

A professional worktop with an integrated stainless steel drawer provides organised storage directly beneath the work surface, keeping essential tools and containers within reach without occupying additional floor space. The flat, uninterrupted top serves as a stable platform for food preparation, plating or holding equipment, while the drawer below slides out smoothly to access its contents. This configuration is common in commercial kitchens where workflow efficiency and hygiene are critical, allowing staff to work without unnecessary movement between stations.

The drawer in this unit is fitted with two stainless steel containers sized to GN 1/1 15h standards, which are widely used in professional catering for holding ingredients, sauces or prepped components. The containers sit securely inside the drawer, preventing spills when opened or closed, and can be removed for filling, cleaning or transport. The worktop itself remains clear, offering a continuous surface for tasks such as chopping, mixing or assembling dishes.

Operation is straightforward: the operator pulls the drawer open to retrieve or place items, then closes it to maintain a tidy workspace. The containers can be swapped or repositioned as needed, and the drawer's smooth glide ensures quick access without disrupting nearby activities. Adjustable legs allow the unit to be levelled on uneven floors, ensuring stability during use.

Constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel, the worktop and drawer resist corrosion and staining, which is essential in environments where moisture, heat and food acids are present. The work surface is finished with a Scotch-Brite texture, providing a slight grip to reduce the risk of items sliding, while rounded edges and chromed details enhance safety and ease of cleaning. The 1 mm thick worktop adds durability without excessive weight, making the unit manageable to move when necessary.

The controls are minimal: adjustable legs with a locking mechanism secure the unit in place, preventing unintended movement. The drawer operates manually, with no electrical components, ensuring reliability in high-traffic kitchens.

The dimensions of 800x705x280 mm indicate a compact footprint suitable for tight kitchen layouts, while the 43 kg weight suggests a sturdy construction that remains stable during use but can still be repositioned with two people. The worktop's height of 280 mm aligns with standard counter heights, integrating seamlessly with other equipment.

Cleaning involves wiping down the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent, focusing on the worktop, drawer and containers. The Scotch-Brite finish helps conceal minor scratches, maintaining a professional appearance over time. The removable containers can be washed separately, either by hand or in a commercial dishwasher, ensuring thorough sanitation.

This model is part of the LOTUS professional worktop range, designed for commercial kitchens requiring durable, hygienic and space-efficient solutions.
