Prep Tables

The Basics

Prep tables offer storage and prep space for ingredients that need to be cut, sliced or otherwise prepped before use.

Quick Fact

Prep tables are often one of the most neglected pieces of equipment in the kitchen since they are high-use and can be difficult to move for cleaning.

Cleaning and Maintaining

Cleaning and maintenance should be a priority, with operators keeping an eye out for corrosion caused by food items, such as acidic sauces and tomatoes.

Did You Know…

Stay-open doors offer easy loading. One-piece magnetic door gaskets and 30-second stay-open door alarms are standard on some tables.

Choosing Prep Tables

Prior to purchasing a refrigerated prep table, operators need to assess the size and capacity needed.

By the Way...

Ingredient rails are recommended for high-volume operations as they help speed up the topping process since staff won't need to bend down to access the base for ingredients.
