True TRCB-36-HC - 2 Drawer Refrigerated Chef Base 924mm
The True TRCB-36-HC is the most compact chef base in True's range: a 924 mm refrigerated stand that sits under a single griddle, char grill or similar countertop appliance and keeps chilled ingredients right where you cook. Each of its two drawers takes one 1/1 GN pan plus three 1/6 GN pans, a handy mix for proteins alongside smaller garnishes. It is certified Climate Class 5 for kitchens up to 40°C, supports up to 326 kg on its insulated stainless steel top, and carries a 5-star energy rating (True's price list). Need more pan space? The TRCB-48-HC takes two full 1/1 pans per drawer.
Key features:
- Built to sit directly under grills and griddles, with chilled storage at the point of cooking
- One-piece, reinforced stainless steel top, insulated to stop heat transferring into the cabinet
- Drip-resistant "V" edge on the top to help contain grease spills; flat tops can be specified
