Supermarket Island Display Chillers
Double-sided island units for frozen foods, ice cream and meats in supermarket floor displays.
Double-sided island display units allow shoppers to access frozen goods and chilled products from both sides of a floor-standing unit, maximising sales area efficiency in supermarket layouts. Kitco's island chillers are available in glass-lid or open-top configurations for frozen foods, ice cream and portioned meats, with stainless steel inner liners and automatic defrost cycles that require minimal operator intervention.

Island display units bring product merchandising to the supermarket floor — open-top or glass-lid chillers and freezers accessible from all sides, positioned in the centre of aisles to maximise product visibility, shopper engagement and impulse purchase. Kitco supplies island display units for supermarkets, hypermarkets and food retail developments across Dubai and the UAE, in both chilled (+2°C to +8°C) and frozen (-18°C to -24°C) temperature variants. In UAE food retail, island freezer units for ice cream, frozen meals and imported frozen seafood are among the highest-revenue floor fixtures per square metre — making correct specification, reliable performance and energy management critical to return on investment.
Chilled vs Frozen Island Units — Temperature Selection for UAE Retail
Island units for chilled products (+2°C to +8°C) are used for fresh fish, prepared meals, chilled beverages and dairy products in category aisles. Island units for frozen products (-18°C to -24°C) are specified for ice cream, frozen chips and vegetables, imported frozen seafood and frozen ready meals. Combined chiller-freezer island units — where one half operates at chilled and the other at frozen temperature — allow two product temperature categories to be displayed within a single floor fixture, reducing the total number of floor units required in supermarkets with constrained selling space. Kitco supplies all three temperature configurations and advises on the most efficient layout for your product category mix and floor plan.
Island Display Unit Sizing, Bay Configuration and Drainage for UAE Supermarkets
Standard bay lengths for Kitco's island display units are 1.5 m, 2.5 m and 3.75 m, with multiple bays joined end-to-end to create longer island runs across larger supermarket floor plans. Double-sided units (accessible from both long sides) are standard; single-sided back-against-wall configurations are available for aisle-end positions. All island units with automatic defrost cycles produce melt water requiring drainage — typically to a floor trench drain beneath the unit or, where trench drains are not available, to a condensate pump draining to a remote floor drain point. Kitco coordinates drainage requirements with your store fit-out contractor at the installation planning stage to prevent site complications.
