Roll-In & Pass-Through Refrigerators & Freezers – Factory-Direct from Istanbul for Hotels & Catering
❄️ Cold Storage That Moves with the Workflow
Roll-In & Pass-Through Refrigerators & Freezers – Factory-Direct from Istanbul for Hotels & Catering
“Chef, we kept trays ready, but staff walked 300 extra meters every shift just to load upright fridges. We needed trolleys, not shelves.” That’s what an operations manager in a catering hub in Nairobi told our audit team. Field reports revealed the same issue across multiple turnkey hotel kitchen projects: without roll-in or pass-through refrigeration, workflow breaks.
Our Turkey-built roll-in and pass-through refrigerators & freezers, manufactured in Istanbul, are designed to move with GN 2/1 trolleys, bakery racks, and bulk prep carts. They eliminate double handling, cut staff fatigue, and keep cold chain intact from prep to service.
In global projects, we’ve also seen another truth: industrial kitchen cold storage and turnkey refrigeration solutions are the backbone of catering success. Consultants, procurement managers, and chefs all rely on trolley-based refrigeration not just for efficiency, but also for compliance, ROI, and guest satisfaction.
