What makes Adande Refrigeration different?

One drawer. Fridge or freezer. Zero compromise. Adande’s patented refrigerated drawers switch fully between fridge and freezer mode in under 40 minutes, running anywhere from -8°F to +59°F, with insulated “Hold the Cold” technology that keeps cold air locked in the drawer instead of spilling out every time it’s opened — cutting energy costs by up to 50% compared to traditional refrigeration. Trusted by everyone from Michelin-starred kitchens to multi-location convenience retailers like Sheetz and Cumberland Farms, and backed by our USA 2-year parts and labor warranty, Adande gives you more usable storage in a smaller footprint, exactly where your team needs it.

Low energy Usage

Energy costs add up fast across a multi-location operation, and Adande’s drawers are built to keep that number down. Our patented “Hold the Cold” technology uses an insulated, horizontal drawer design that keeps heavier cold air retained within the drawer, no matter how frequently it’s opened — so the compressor isn’t fighting to recover lost cold air every time staff reach in during service. The results speak for themselves: Chris Havice reported a 32% reduction in energy consumption compared with the equipment used previously, delivering a further return on investment on top of the initial install.

Let's Talk Temperature

Temperature flexibility

Adande gives you the flexibility to set the temperature to within 0.1 °C to suit the food you are holding. You are able also to change the temperature, from fridge to freezer and back again, as you need. This ensures that Adande refrigeration actively assists in delivering the best quality food for your diners.

An Adande fridge keeps a stable temperature which means food is kept fresher for longer. This helps in the reduction of food waste and also
the meeting of sustainability objectives. It also maximizes your bottom line.

Turn up the heat

Adande heatshields give unparalleled protection allowing you to position your Adande fridge safely beneath cooking equipment with temperatures of up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit/200 degrees Celsius.

The heatshield protects the fridge housing ensuring that even if positioned under the most intense temperature, your Adande fridge will perform consistently and reliably without issue, even when in freezer mode.

Operators find this particularly useful; some use their Adande under frying stations, some under induction grills, or even under hot coals.

Adande heatshields come as standard with an Adande unit.

The drawer that's built better. Runs colder. Lasts longer.

Adande is the quality choice in commercial refrigeration, built for whatever kitchen you’re running and a partner you can rely on for the long haul. It starts with energy: Adande units use less power from day one, so the savings show up on your very first bill, not somewhere down the line. That efficiency carries through to the footprint, too — stackable units give you more usable storage per square foot, freeing up space to grow the dining room instead of the kitchen. Our patented “hold-the-cold” design keeps food fresher for longer, preserving taste and texture so diners stay happy and less stock ends up in the trash — less waste, less cost, straight to your bottom line. And because bulk storage sits right where chefs need it, service moves faster without a single walk-in run, giving your team the speed to do more when it counts. Need to flex between fridge and freezer? Set anything from -8°F to +59°F in one unit. Low maintenance, low running costs, and a 2-year USA parts and labor warranty to back it all up — efficiency isn’t just part of what Adande does, it’s the whole design brief.
