Chef Bases
Chef bases are made to maximize your workspace by supporting equipment above and storing ingredients
below. You’ll often find griddles and grills positioned atop these bases. The chef base is equipped with
a heat shield that deflects heat and safeguards the refrigerator cavity below. It is essential to adhere to
the manufacturer’s instructions to prolong the unit’s life and maintain safe food holding temperatures.
While chef bases are NSF-7 certified for open food storage, it’s important to note they are not intended
for long-term storage. They are specifically designed for the cold storage of immediate-use products on
the cooking line, ensuring freshness and accessibility. A typical
use would be to store burgers, chicken, steak and other proteins
below a grill.
Chef bases are available in various lengths to suit different
kitchen layouts and equipment needs, but it is important to
consider the weight of the equipment that is intended to be
placed on top.
