How Do I Choose the Right Commercial Refrigerator?
Three jobs, three temperature bands. Most kitchens need a chiller and a freezer, and add a blast freezer once they cook in batches.
| Type | Temperature | Best for | ANKE range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chiller (commercial fridge) | -2C to +10C | Everyday storage of fresh food, dairy, produce and drinks | Upright & under counter chillers, bottle coolers |
| Freezer | -18C to -22C | Long-term storage of frozen stock | Upright & under counter freezers |
| Blast freezer | +3C chill down to -40C | Rapidly cooling hot cooked food to safe temperatures (HACCP) | Blast freezer |
Built for the Gulf
Engineered for 43C UAE Heat
Most refrigeration struggles in the Gulf for one reason: it was designed for cooler climates. ANKE builds for the heat.
- Rated to 43C ambient. Upright chillers, under counter units and bottle coolers hold temperature through a Dubai summer without overworking the compressor.
- Low-GWP R290 refrigerant. A Global Warming Potential of 3, against around 1900 for the R404A found in many older commercial fridges.
- Front-breathing, front-venting. Units sit flush to walls or under counters and slide forward for service in tight kitchens.
Made to measure
Custom and Bespoke Commercial Refrigeration
ANKE has manufactured commercial refrigeration since 1997, with a dedicated fabrication facility in Coimbatore, India. We do more than sell standard units.
- Built to your size and layout. When a stock cabinet does not fit, we fabricate one that does.
- Custom commercial refrigerators. Bespoke under counter runs, made-to-measure lowboy bases and specified finishes.
- Manufacturer, not reseller. We control the build, so we can change it for you.

Fitting out a full kitchen? ANKE also builds Modulux flat-pack kitchen units.
Buyer guide
How to Choose Commercial Refrigeration
Four checks that decide whether a unit performs for years or fails in a Gulf summer.
01
Decide chiller, freezer or both.
Fresh stock needs -2C to +10C, frozen stock needs -18C to -22C.
02
Pick the format for your space.
Upright, under counter, lowboy or bottle cooler.
03
Check the ambient rating.
Insist on at least 43C ambient for UAE use.
04
Compare running cost.
Look at kWh per year and energy class, not just price.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Click a category to see its questions.
What is the difference between a commercial chiller and a freezer?
A commercial chiller holds fresh food at -2C to +10C for daily use. A commercial freezer holds frozen stock at -18C to -22C. ANKE builds both as upright and under counter units. For a full breakdown, see our chiller vs fridge vs freezer guide.
What temperature range do ANKE commercial chillers and freezers hold?
ANKE upright and under counter chillers hold -2C to +10C, and freezers hold -18C to -22C. Both are built in 304 stainless steel, rated for ambient temperatures up to 43C and run on R290 refrigerant.
Are ANKE refrigeration units suitable for the UAE climate?
Yes. ANKE upright chillers, under counter units and bottle coolers are rated to operate in ambient temperatures up to 43C, so they hold temperature through a Gulf summer.
Is ANKE a manufacturer or a reseller of commercial refrigeration?
ANKE is a manufacturer, not a reseller. We have built commercial refrigeration since 1997 and run our own fabrication facility, so specifications and custom builds are controlled in-house rather than sourced from a third party.
What's the difference between an under counter chiller and a low boy chiller?
Under counter units stand 850mm tall to sit at standard worktop height. Low boy units are lower, at 650mm, for kitchens that need extra worktop clearance above the unit.
Are ANKE under counter units suitable for tight kitchen spaces?
Yes. They use a front-breathing, front-venting refrigeration system, so units can sit flush to a wall or slide forward for servicing without needing rear clearance.
Can under counter units be lowered for a plinth mount?
Yes. A plinth mount option lowers the unit height to 700mm where the kitchen layout calls for it.
Can low boy units be fitted with castor wheels?
Yes. Castor wheels are available as an option on every ANKE low boy chiller and freezer.
What sizes do ANKE upright chillers and freezers come in?
ANKE uprights come in two widths: a single door model at 686mm holding 450 litres, and a double door model at 1372mm holding 1017 litres. Both stand 2050mm tall.
What's the difference between a single door and double door upright chiller?
The single door upright holds 4 shelves and 450 litres. The double door upright holds 8 shelves and 1017 litres. Both share the same 2050mm height and 830mm depth.
Are ANKE upright units heavy-duty enough for a professional kitchen?
Yes. ANKE uprights are rated to 43C ambient, use hot gas defrost and GN 2/1 shelving, and run on heavy-duty brake and swivel castors for busy kitchens.
How many shelves come with an ANKE upright chiller?
The single door model ships with 4 shelves and the double door model with 8, both expandable up to 10 shelves at 100mm spacing.
What bottle cooler sizes does ANKE offer?
ANKE bottle coolers come in three widths: 600mm with 2 shelves and 120 litres, 900mm with 4 shelves and 190 litres, and 1350mm with 6 shelves and 295 litres.
Do ANKE bottle coolers come with glass doors?
Yes. Heated glass doors with anti-condensation frame heaters are available, alongside a solid door option.
What temperature do ANKE bottle coolers hold?
ANKE bottle coolers hold 0C to +8C, using R290 refrigerant.
Are ANKE bottle coolers suitable for bars and cafes?
Yes. The front-breathing, front-venting design fits under a bar or cafe counter, and a 43C tropicalised ambient option is available for hotter service areas.
What is a preparation chiller used for?
ANKE preparation chillers are built for high-volume pizza and sandwich prep, with elevated GN 1/3 pans for quick access and a flip-up stainless steel cover to hold temperature when not in use.
What sizes do ANKE preparation chillers come in?
Preparation chillers come in a double door 1500mm model at 248 litres and a triple door 2025mm model at 371 litres.
What is a table top saladette?
A table top saladette is a compact countertop chiller that sits on top of an existing worktop, holding GN 1/3 pans of salads, garnishes and prep items within easy reach.
What temperature and ambient rating do saladettes and prep chillers hold?
Both hold 0C to +10C and are rated for 32C ambient, running on R290 refrigerant.
What is a blast freezer and does my kitchen need one?
A blast freezer rapidly cools hot cooked food from +3C down to -40C to move it through the bacterial danger zone quickly. It supports HACCP food safety in kitchens that cook in batches.
What is the purpose of a blast freezer?
Its purpose is to pull cooked food through the +4C to +60C bacterial danger zone as fast as possible, so bacteria have no time to multiply. This locks in food safety, extends shelf life and keeps texture and moisture intact for later reheating or service.
What is the difference between a regular freezer and a blast freezer?
A regular freezer holds food at a steady -18C to -22C for storage. A blast freezer uses high-velocity air to pull hot food down to -40C in minutes rather than hours, which stops large ice crystals from forming and damaging the food’s texture.
How does a blast freezer manage to freeze food so quickly?
Powerful evaporator fans circulate high-velocity cold air across every surface of the food, instead of relying on still air like a standard freezer. This sharply increases the rate of heat transfer, so the core temperature drops in minutes rather than hours.
What refrigerant do ANKE commercial refrigerators use?
Most ANKE units run on R290, a hydrocarbon refrigerant with a Global Warming Potential of 3. Blast freezers use R404A where the rapid pull-down requires it.
Are ANKE commercial refrigerators energy efficient?
Yes. Under counter chillers carry a B energy class at around 599 to 799 kWh per year, and every workhorse unit uses low-GWP R290 refrigerant. Full energy figures are published per model.
What grade of stainless steel does ANKE use?
ANKE builds its refrigeration from 304-grade stainless steel (AISI 304) inside and out, for hygiene, corrosion resistance and long service life.
Can ANKE build custom commercial refrigeration?
Yes. ANKE has manufactured refrigeration since 1997 and builds custom commercial refrigerators, bespoke under counter runs and made-to-measure lowboy bases in 304 stainless steel to your exact size and layout.
