Commercial Freezers

Q: How cold are commercial freezers?

Most commercial freezers operate between -18°C and -22°C, depending on the unit, model and intended application. Specialised models such as blast freezers can reach lower temperatures for rapid cooling and food safety compliance.

Q: How long do commercial freezers last?

A commercial freezer can last between 8 to 15 years with proper use, care and maintenance. Models from a trusted manufacturer of a commercial freezer for sale often come with extended warranties and service support.

Freezer Types for Specific Business Needs

Choosing the right freezer depends on your floor plan, stock volume and how quickly your team needs to access or rotate products. Artisan offers a targeted range of commercial freezer types to support specific business operations:

Upright Freezers

You’ll often see upright display freezers in front-of-house areas like service stations, takeaway counters and grab-and-go sections. These freezers allow customers to see what’s available and take what they need without affecting the internal temperature.
