Polar CK490-A U-Series 2 Door Premium Bar Fridge 366Ltr

The Polar CK490-A is a premium U-Series double glass door bar fridge offering 366 litres of refrigerated storage, purpose-built for cafes, bars, restaurants and other busy food service environments. Constructed from stainless steel and powered by forced-air cooling, it maintains a consistent temperature range of 2°C to 6°C even in high-ambient conditions up to 38°C, making it equally suited to hot kitchens and front-of-house settings.

Beyond refrigeration, the CK490-A functions as a sturdy work surface at a practical 1030mm bench height, while a dedicated cutlery and utensil drawer positioned alongside the glass doors adds versatility for both food preparation and stylish drinks merchandising. A 50mm splashback, automatic defrost, and four adjustable shelves round out a unit designed to keep pace with demanding service without interruption.
