This offer ends in:
The IB183008 is a stainless steel underbar ice bin with integrated splashback for bar and beverage service operations. The unit holds ice in a 390×710×200mm insulated bowl and includes two bottle holders for chilled mixers. Operators use it in high-volume bars, hotel service stations, and event catering setups where ice and bottle access must be immediate.
Commercial Application
Underbar ice bins solve the workflow problem of frequent trips to walk-in freezers during service. Staff fill the insulated bowl once per shift and draw ice directly at the bar station. The 80mm splashback protects the wall from splash and condensation during scooping and bottle handling.
During service, bartenders access ice and chilled bottles without leaving the station. The insulated walls slow melt rate over a full shift. Two bottle holders keep mixers and spirits at working temperature within arm's reach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the bowl 304 or 430 stainless steel?
A: The bowl, top, body and bottom are all 1.0mm 304 stainless steel. 304 grade offers superior corrosion resistance in wet bar environments and meets food-contact hygiene standards in the UK, EU and North America.
Q: What is the ice holding capacity of the bowl?
A: The bowl measures 390×710×200mm internal dimensions. Actual ice capacity depends on cube size and fill method, but operators typically load 40–50 litres of cubed ice per shift.
Q: Are the legs adjustable for uneven floors?
A: Yes. The unit uses galvanised legs with plastic bullet feet that adjust to level the bin on uneven or sloped bar floors. U-shaped bracing prevents lateral movement during service.
Q: Can the splashback height be customised?
A: The standard unit has an 80mm rear splashback. Custom splashback heights are available on request for orders of three or more units. Lead time for custom builds is 6–8 weeks.
Q: How is melt water removed from the bowl?
A: The bowl has a 1-inch IPS drain outlet at the base. Connect to floor waste or a standpipe using standard threaded fittings. No manual emptying is required during service.
