Overview

Bonvue CTA-196 Chilled Angled Counter-Top Food Display

The Bonvue CTA-196 is a chilled angled counter-top food display engineered for professional hospitality environments including cafés, bakeries, delis, and restaurants. Its significantly larger display area and additional shelf compared to competing units allow operators to present a greater variety of cold foods, cakes, sandwiches, salads, and desserts with maximum visual impact. The angled curved glass front draws customer attention to products, while dual-sided LED lighting ensures every item is brilliantly illuminated from multiple angles.

Built from stainless steel and encased on all sides in double tempered glass, the CTA-196 combines durability with excellent thermal efficiency. The unit uses natural R290 refrigerant and achieves an exceptional 9 or 10-star GEMS energy rating, making it one of the more environmentally responsible and cost-effective options in its category. Fan-forced ventilating cooling distributes cold air evenly across all display levels, automatic defrost prevents ice build-up with no manual intervention, and three-sided airducts manage condensation to keep the glass clear and product presentation unobstructed throughout the service day.

Key Benefits

• Larger display area with an extra shelf compared to competing units, enabling operators to merchandise a wider product range and increase impulse purchases
