Anyone searching for “600 litre fridge” usually already knows their size. That is why this tool shows you no calculation, just the units directly: choose usable capacity and type, see matching models with price. Below it, you will find what usable capacity actually means and why the next size up is almost always the smarter choice.

Frequently asked questions

How many litres do I need?

There is no reliable formula for this — the need depends on the menu, delivery frequency and how much prep is done in-house. Two similarly sized operations can differ by a factor of two. As a rule of thumb: the less often you are delivered to and the more you prepare yourself, the larger the unit needs to be. When in doubt, choose the next size up — cold storage is expensive to retrofit later.

Is usable capacity the same as gross volume?

No. Usable capacity is what you can actually fill; shelves, evaporator and airflow ducting take up space. Always compare the same figure, and factor in that goods must not be stacked right up to the ceiling — the air needs to circulate.

Fan-assisted or static cooling?

Fan-assisted cooling distributes the temperature evenly and recovers faster after the door is opened — almost always the right choice for foodservice. Static cooling dries out goods less and is useful for unpackaged items in exceptional cases.

GN 2/1 or GN 1/1?

This cannot be read off the litre figure — it is stated in the specific unit's technical data. In our range exactly two units are explicitly rated for GN 2/1: a refrigerator at 1,200 l and a freezer at 1,400 l; a few smaller models also mention GN 2/1. Check the specification on the product rather than inferring it from the size — GN 2/1 measures 650 × 530 mm and needs correspondingly deep shelves.

Usable capacity is not the same as usable space

The stated usable capacity describes the volume of the interior, not the amount you can sensibly fit in. Shelves, the evaporator and airflow ducting take up space, and goods must not be stacked right up to the ceiling — the air needs to circulate, or warm zones develop. In practice, expect noticeably less than the figure on the data sheet.

Why the next size up is the safer bet

A unit that is too small costs twice: it runs permanently at its limit because it is constantly opened and fully loaded, and it forces more frequent deliveries. Retrofitting later means a second unit, a second spot and a second power connection. The price difference from one class to the next is usually the smallest item in the entire kitchen planning budget.

Chilling, freezing, beverages — three different jobs

Beverage coolers are built for fast recovery after frequent door opening and often have glass doors; for food they are not ideal because of light exposure and temperature control. Freezer units need considerably more connected load and more clearance from the wall. And anyone wanting both in one unit pays for the flexibility with usable capacity.
