Blue Seal GP518-RB Evolution Series 1200mm Gas Griddle with Refrigerated Base

The Blue Seal GP518-RB Evolution Series combines a high-output 1200mm gas griddle with an integrated refrigerated base, delivering a compact, all-in-one cooking and cold-storage solution purpose-built for demanding commercial kitchens. The griddle runs a 108MJ/hr thermostatic burner system with three independent 90–300°C thermostats for precise, zone-by-zone temperature control, while the refrigerated base maintains a -2°C to +8°C temperature range and carries a Tropical Climate rating to cope with hot kitchen environments.

Constructed for heavy-duty everyday service, the unit features a 20mm thick griddle plate with top weld-sealed plates for even heat distribution and long-term durability. Two GN 2/1 refrigerated drawers provide immediate access to prepped ingredients at the point of cooking, eliminating unnecessary trips to a separate cool room. Available in Natural Gas or LPG configurations, the GP518-RB is designed to streamline workflow, simplify cleaning, and reduce the overall equipment footprint on the kitchen floor.

Key Benefits

• Integrated refrigerated base keeps ingredients cold at the point of cooking, reducing walk time and improving service speed during busy periods.

• Two GN 2/1 drawers with 100mm deep pan capacity offer ample cold ingredient storage directly beneath the cooking surface, compatible with standard gastronorm pans.
• Adjustable feet and two rear rollers make levelling straightforward on uneven floors and allow the unit to be moved easily for thorough cleaning or repositioning.
