LOTUS Worktop PL-2 for Professional Kitchens

A stainless steel work surface built for the demands of a commercial kitchen, the LOTUS Worktop PL-2 provides a hygienic, durable area for food preparation, plating or holding equipment. The unit stands directly on the floor, freeing cupboard space below for storage or leaving the area open for mobile trolleys and bins. The worktop relies on a solid, flat sheet of stainless steel to create a non-porous surface that resists stains, corrosion and bacterial growth. Heat from hot pans or trays spreads evenly across the metal, preventing localised scorching. The Scotch-Brite finish reduces glare under kitchen lighting and masks minor scratches that occur during daily use, keeping the surface looking professional without frequent polishing. To use the worktop, position it where needed in the kitchen layout. Adjustable feet level the unit on uneven floors, ensuring stability for chopping and assembly. When the optional drawer is fitted, it slides out smoothly for access to utensils or ingredients kept close to the work area. A locking system secures the drawer when not in use, preventing accidental opening during busy service. Construction is entirely in CrNi 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel, chosen for its balance of strength and resistance to food acids and cleaning chemicals. The worktop itself is 1 mm thick, providing rigidity without excessive weight. Rounded edges eliminate sharp corners that could trap debris or cause injury, while chrome-plated components add corrosion resistance to moving parts such as drawer slides and locking mechanisms. The 600 mm width allows the worktop to fit between standard kitchen units or alongside hobs and sinks without overcrowding. At 500 mm deep, it provides ample space for food preparation while remaining within reach for tasks that require close attention. The 290 mm height matches most professional work surfaces, allowing seamless integration with existing equipment. Weighing 13 kg, the unit can be moved by one person for cleaning or reorganisation, yet remains stable during use. The Scotch-Brite finish on this stainless-steel worktop scatters light to hide fingerprints and minor scratches while you prep, so the surface stays looking sharp through a busy service. The stainless steel surface wipes clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent, while the Scotch-Brite finish reduces the need for abrasive cleaners that could damage the metal. When the legs are set so the worktop sits flush with adjacent counters, pans slide on and off without catching, and the locking system keeps them from shifting during heavy chopping or stirring. Chrome-plated components require occasional wiping to prevent tarnish, particularly in humid kitchen environments. The PL-2 is available with or without a drawer, allowing the configuration to match the specific needs of the kitchen. Both versions share the same dimensions, weight and construction, ensuring consistency across the workspace. Positioned in the catalogue under professional work surfaces, the PL-2 serves as a standalone unit or as part of a larger kitchen layout, providing a reliable, easy-to-clean work area for daily service.
