Commercial Fryers

Commercial Fryers

Commercial fryers provide professional kitchens with an efficient way to prepare chips, fried chicken, fish, vegetables, doughnuts and other popular fried foods at volume. Our range of commercial fryers and commercial deep fat fryers includes equipment for restaurants, pubs, hotels, cafés, takeaways, fish and chip shops and other catering businesses, with gas and electric models available in different capacities and configurations.

Choose from commercial frying equipment designed for different kitchen requirements, including free standing fryers and counter top fryers. Single and twin tank models are available, while different basket capacities and heating configurations provide flexibility for kitchens with varying cooking volumes and menu requirements.

Choosing a Commercial Fryer

When choosing a commercial fryer, consider the type and volume of food you need to prepare, available kitchen space and the required cooking capacity. Tank size, oil capacity, recovery time and the number of frying tanks can all affect how efficiently a fryer performs during busy service periods. The right commercial fryer should provide sufficient capacity for your expected workload while fitting comfortably within your kitchen layout.

You should also consider the number of baskets required and whether you need to cook different foods simultaneously. Single-tank fryers can provide a straightforward solution for many professional kitchens, while twin-tank models offer greater flexibility where separate foods or larger volumes need to be cooked at the same time.

Commercial Deep Fat Fryers

Commercial deep fat fryers cook food by immersing it in heated cooking oil, providing consistent results across busy professional catering operations. They are commonly used for chips, fish, fried chicken, vegetables, doughnuts and a wide range of other fried foods. Different tank capacities and configurations allow businesses to choose equipment suited to their menu and expected output.

For higher-volume operations, larger commercial fryers or models with multiple tanks can allow different foods to be cooked simultaneously. Separate frying tanks can also help businesses manage different cooking temperatures or keep particular foods separate during service.

Free Standing Commercial Fryers

Free standing commercial fryers provide greater frying capacity for professional kitchens where higher output is required or a dedicated frying station is preferred. These floor-standing models are available in a variety of tank sizes and configurations, making them suitable for restaurants, takeaways, fish and chip shops, hotels and other busy catering environments.

For larger frying requirements, explore our range of commercial free standing fryers to compare the available capacities and configurations.

Counter Top Commercial Fryers

Counter top commercial fryers offer a compact solution for professional kitchens where available floor space is limited or a smaller frying capacity is required. They can be positioned on a suitable work surface and are available in different capacities to suit restaurants, cafés, takeaways and other catering environments.

Counter top models can also provide useful additional frying capacity alongside existing cooking equipment. Browse our commercial counter top fryers to find equipment suited to your available workspace and cooking requirements.

Gas and Electric Commercial Fryers

Commercial fryers are available with either gas or electric heating, allowing businesses to choose equipment that suits their kitchen infrastructure and cooking requirements. Gas fryers can be particularly useful for high-volume frying, while electric models provide an alternative where electrical cooking equipment is preferred or a suitable gas supply is unavailable.

Before selecting a fryer, check the required gas or electrical supply, installation requirements and available space. Product specifications should also be checked for power rating, oil capacity, dimensions and temperature range to ensure the fryer is suitable for your kitchen.

Fryer Capacity, Tanks and Baskets

Fryer capacity should be matched to the expected volume of food being prepared during service. Oil capacity, tank dimensions and basket configuration all influence how much food can be cooked in each batch and how efficiently the fryer can support a busy kitchen.

Single-tank fryers are suitable for many catering operations, while twin-tank fryers can provide additional capacity and allow different foods to be cooked separately. Consider the number and size of baskets required, particularly where several food types need to be prepared during the same service.

Commercial Fryer Filtration

Some commercial fryers feature built-in filtration systems that can help maintain cooking oil quality by removing food particles and other debris. Filtration can be particularly useful in busy kitchens where fryers are used frequently, helping to reduce oil waste and maintain consistent frying performance.

When considering a fryer with filtration, check the individual product specifications to understand how the filtration system operates and whether its capacity and configuration are suitable for your expected workload.

Commercial Fryers and Chip Scuttles

Chip scuttles can complement a commercial fryer by holding freshly cooked chips and other fried foods ready for service. They provide a practical way to keep food at a suitable serving temperature while orders are prepared, making them useful alongside both counter top and free standing fryers.

Choosing the Right Commercial Fryer

Consider your expected cooking volume, oil capacity, number of tanks and baskets, available space and preferred fuel type when selecting a commercial fryer. Counter top models can provide a compact solution where workspace is limited, while free standing fryers offer greater capacity for kitchens with higher frying requirements.

Our range of commercial fryers includes equipment for professional kitchens with different capacities, configurations and cooking requirements. Compare counter top and free standing models, along with gas and electric options, to find the right commercial deep fat fryer for your business.
