Commercial Blast Chillers & Shock Freezers for Professional Kitchens

Blast chillers and shock freezers are essential food safety and quality tools for any high-volume commercial kitchen. By rapidly driving cooked food through the temperature danger zone (60°C to 5°C in under 90 minutes), these units prevent bacterial growth, extend shelf life, and preserve the texture, colour, and nutritional integrity of prepared foods. They are critical for cook-chill operations, catering production kitchens, aged care facilities, hospitals, and any venue preparing food in advance. Modern units offer both chilling and blast-freezing modes, with programmable cycles and core temperature probes for precise HACCP documentation.

Chillers & Specialty FAQs

What types of blast chillers do you stock?

We stock countertop blast chillers, freestanding blast chiller/freezer combis, roll-in trolley models, and cold food display units — in both white Colorbond and stainless steel finishes from brands including Williams and Woodson.

What should I look for when choosing a blast chiller?

Key factors include chilling capacity (kg per cycle), whether you need chilling-only or a chiller/freezer combi, core temperature probe compatibility for HACCP logging, ambient temperature rating, and whether a roll-in trolley or GN pan configuration suits your kitchen workflow.

Which brands of blast chillers do you carry?

Our primary blast chiller brands include Williams Refrigeration (Australian-made, widely used in professional kitchens) and Woodson (cold food display units for front-of-house chilled service).

Do you deliver blast chillers Australia-wide?

Yes, Atlantic Equipment delivers blast chillers and shock freezers to all states and territories across Australia. Metro and regional delivery options are available, and our team can advise on freight requirements for larger roll-in models.

What is the difference between a blast chiller and a shock freezer?

A blast chiller rapidly reduces food temperature to +3°C (chilling), while a shock freezer takes food down to -18°C (freezing). Combi units perform both functions. Blast chilling is used for cook-chill service; shock freezing is used for longer-term frozen storage of prepared foods.
