Overview

Waldorf GPL8120G-B 800 Series 1200mm Gas Griddle Low Back Version – Bench Model

The Waldorf GPL8120G-B is a heavy-duty 1200mm bench-mount gas griddle from the 800 Series, designed to meet the demands of high-volume commercial kitchens. Built from 304 stainless steel in New Zealand, it features a 20mm thick smooth griddle plate with top weld sealed construction, delivering consistent, even heat across the entire cooking surface for breakfasts, burgers, seafood and more.

Powered by a 108MJ/hr thermostatic burner system across four burners, the GPL8120G-B offers precise temperature control across a range of 100–290°C and accepts both natural gas and LPG. Push-button piezo ignition, a stainless steel grease drawer, heavy-duty reinforced control knobs and adjustable feet with two additional rollers all contribute to smooth, efficient daily operation. Optional ribbed or chrome mirror plate configurations are available to suit different menu requirements.

Key Benefits

• Even heat distribution across the full 1200mm smooth plate reduces hot spots and supports consistent cooking results during peak service periods.
