The 3-door Granite 580L refrigerated pizza prep table is the large-capacity configuration of the Granite range — a unit for high-volume pizzerias that need to store more toppings on the station without restocking mid-service. With its 580 litres of refrigerated capacity (vs 350 L for the standard 3-door Granite model), it absorbs long services and large stocks of varied toppings. At the same price as the Granite 350L, it is the large-capacity solution for pizzerias whose service volume justifies substantial refrigerated storage.
Granite 580L vs Granite 350L: same price, larger capacity
Both Granite 3-door prep tables are offered at the same price. The difference is in the refrigerated capacity:
Granite 350L (137 cm wide) — standard capacity for an active pizzeria. Covers the needs of a 40-80 pizza service without restocking the topping pans, provided they are well supplied at the start of service.
Granite 580L (this product) — higher capacity for large volumes. 230 extra litres allow you to store more toppings in the lower drawers/compartments, or to have more variety in the top pans. Ideal for services of more than 80-100 pizzas or for establishments offering many different topping references.
At identical price, the choice between the two comes down to your service volume and the variety of your menu. If you offer a pizza menu with 10+ references including diverse toppings (cold meats, marinated vegetables, varied cheeses, multiple sauces), the 580L lets you have the whole set available at the top without managing pan rotations during service.
580L for intensive services: sizing in practice
A litre of refrigerated capacity corresponds approximately to what the unit can store in total food volume. In practice for a pizzeria:
GN pans at the top (worktop) — the pans directly accessible during preparation. On 580L with 3 doors, the top can hold more GN pans simultaneously than a 350L model, allowing more toppings in direct access without rotation.
Storage in the lower compartments — 580L of total volume means more space in the 3 lower compartments for topping reserves (opened mozzarella bags, semi-dried tomato trays, mushroom tubs, etc.) without going down to a separate fridge.
Fewer restocks during service — with 580L, you restock the pans less often during service. Over a busy 3-hour service, the saving in interruptions can represent 10 to 15 minutes of extra service at the pizza station — time the pizzaiolo spends on production rather than topping logistics.
Which establishment
High-volume pizzeria (80-120 pizzas per service) — your peak service exceeds 80 pizzas and you need enough topping stock to last the whole service without restocking. The 580L is sized for this volume with a wide margin.
Pizzeria with an extended menu (10+ varieties) — your menu offers many different pizzas with toppings specific to each recipe. The higher capacity of the 580L lets you have all your toppings available simultaneously, organised by service zone.
Establishment with all-day continuous service — some establishments (airports, shopping centres, events) serve pizzas over 8-12 hours without a break. The 580L lets you prepare and store toppings for a whole day in a single unit.

What restaurant owners ask
- Why choose the 580L when the 350L is the same price?
- If your service volume justifies it (80+ pizzas per service or a menu with 10+ different toppings), the 580L is the better buy: same price, more capacity. The only argument in favour of the 350L is the floor footprint — the 580L is wider than the 350L. If your space is limited and you do not have the available width for the 580L, the 350L is the solution. If you have the room, the 580L offers more value at an equal budget.
- Can the 580L also be used to store pizza boxes or packaging?
- No — the refrigerated space of a prep table is reserved for foodstuffs requiring cold. Packaging, pizza boxes and non-food accessories must be stored separately in a non-refrigerated space. Mixing food and non-food items in the same refrigerated space is an HACCP non-compliance.
- Does the Granite 580L work in a kitchen without air conditioning in summer?
- Professional refrigerated prep tables are designed for ambient temperatures up to +43°C (climate class SN-T or equivalent depending on the model). In a catering kitchen, the ambient temperature can reach 30-35°C in summer — Granite equipment is sized to maintain the cold in these conditions. Check the exact climate class in the unit's data sheet. If in doubt about your kitchen's ambient heat, contact us to confirm compatibility.
