Thermaster SDC-178B Upright Glass Door Beverage Fridge

The Thermaster SDC-178B is a compact upright beverage fridge designed for professional hospitality environments including bars, cafés, and restaurants. Its 178L net capacity, black painted steel exterior, and two-layer tempered glass door combine practical display functionality with a durable, visually appealing finish that suits front-of-house service areas.
