Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner Slice, a popular pizzeria in Cardiff, was struggling with a cramped prep area that slowed down their service during peak hours. They upgraded to the Infrico double door refrigerated prep counter to consolidate their ingredient storage and prep space into one efficient station.
"It's been brilliant. Having everything perfectly chilled right under the counter where we make the pizzas has saved us so much time. The workflow is just so much smoother, and the team is less stressed during the evening rush."
Mark Thompson – Head Chef
The new setup helped The Corner Slice reduce average order prep time by 25%, allowing them to serve more customers and improve table turnover on busy Friday nights.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure you leave at least 10cm of space around the back and sides for proper air circulation.
- Use the adjustable legs to make sure the unit is perfectly level on the floor to help the doors seal correctly.
- Once in place, let the unit stand for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.
- Give the interior a quick wipe-down with a food-safe sanitiser before you start loading it with stock.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe down the door seals (gaskets) weekly with a damp cloth to remove any grime and ensure they seal tightly.
- Regularly check and clear the internal drain to prevent blockages and water build-up.
- Avoid overloading shelves, as this can block airflow and reduce the cooling efficiency.
- Clean the exterior with a stainless steel cleaner to keep it looking smart and professional.

Explore more from InfricoHow Ventilated Cooling Keeps Ingredients Fresher for Longer
Ever noticed how in a standard fridge, some spots feel colder than others? That’s because the cold air is static. Ventilated cooling, also known as fan-assisted cooling, solves that problem completely. Think of it like a gentle, continuous breeze circulating inside the fridge. This fan ensures that the chilled air reaches every single nook and cranny, from the top shelf to the bottom drawer. The result? No more annoying warm spots or semi-frozen produce. Everything is held at the exact, consistent temperature you set, which is crucial for food safety and for keeping delicate ingredients like salad leaves and herbs fresher for much longer.
Who Should Buy This?
- Busy Bistros & Restaurants: Ideal for streamlining your main service prep, keeping salads, sauces, and garnishes perfectly chilled and within reach.
- Pub Kitchens: A fantastic addition for managing Sunday roast prep or keeping burger and sandwich fillings fresh and organised.
- Sandwich Shops & Delis: Massively boosts efficiency by combining a large prep surface with ample refrigerated storage for all your fillings.
- Catering Companies: A reliable and mobile-friendly unit for event kitchens, offering robust performance and easy cleaning after a long shift.
