Overview

Hatco Glo-Max Curved Infrared Strip Heater with Heat & LED Light (GM5AHL-36 / GM5AH-36)

The Hatco Glo-Max GM5AHL-36 is a patented, curved infrared strip heater purpose-built for front-of-house applications such as buffet lines, serving counters and cafeteria setups. Its sleek curved profile is derived from Hatco's proven signature Glo-Max strip heater platform, delivering reliable infrared warmth while occupying a minimal footprint in customer-facing spaces.

The GM5AHL variant pairs the heater's infrared warming capability with versatile LED lighting options, providing both ideal colour rendering and broad coverage to enhance the visual presentation of food displayed below. Together, the heating and lighting functions are engineered to maintain safe serving temperatures while lowering overall energy costs compared to conventional warming and lighting solutions.
