CAFB – Cold Frost Units

(Refrigerated Frost Top with Refrigerated Base)

The frost cart provides the most attractive way of displaying your pre-plated cold foods and adds the convenience of a refrigerated base for backup storage. The unit is fully self-contained and can be located anywhere in your serving line. Just plug it in and it frosts over quickly providing the perfect setting for salads and desserts, with 12″ x 20″ pan capacity.

The attractive streamlined design, plus the variety of laminates give you a wide range of choices to complement any decor. The unmatched feature of the CA-Cart line is the self-locking device which eliminates loose fasteners nor molding strips to lock units together. Simply push the units together; the carts will automatically lock and the top will be flush and level, regardless of the floor’s condition. It’s the right cart for your serving line needs.
