Most commercial display freezers hold frozen stock at −18°C to −22°C, in line with UK Food Standards Agency guidance for frozen food. Soft-scoop ice cream cabinets run warmer, around −12°C to −14°C, to keep product at scooping consistency. Dual-temperature open-top units can switch between chilled and frozen duty. Every Lowe unit arrives pre-set for its intended use and can be adjusted on site.
Rental cost depends on the unit type, hire duration, number of sites and any extras such as branding or SMART monitoring. A single chest freezer for a summer event is priced differently to a branded ice cream fleet across hundreds of stores. Every Lowe quote is fully inclusive: equipment, delivery, installation, maintenance and 24/7 support are built in, with no separate service contract or callout fees. Request a quote for pricing against your sites.

A commercial display freezer is a frozen-temperature cabinet built to keep stock at −18°C or below while making it visible and easy to select. Common formats include glass-top chest freezers for ice cream and impulse lines, upright glass-door freezers for frozen food retail, open-top island freezers for centre-aisle merchandising, and soft-scoop scooping cabinets for served ice cream.
Lowe’s display freezer range covers every format used across UK frozen retail, hospitality, events and exhibitions. Every unit is available on short-term, project-based or long-term Rental+ rental.
Single, double and triple glass-door uprights for frozen food, ready meals and grab-and-go ranges. Full-height frozen-food cabinets give maximum capacity on a small footprint, with glass doors that hold temperature and cut energy use against open formats. View the glass-door upright freezer range, including full-height frozen-food cabinets.

When a display freezer fails in a live retail or food-service environment, frozen stock is at risk within hours. Lowe operates 24/7 from depots in Lisburn, Marchington and Cheltenham, with replacement units deployable at short notice across the UK. Hire the replacement for as long as you need; we handle installation on arrival and collection once your own equipment is back in service.
When a store goes under refurbishment, frozen retail still has to keep running, either on-site through the works or relocated elsewhere. Lowe was named Asda’s Supplier of the Year in 2017 for this work, supplying temporary freezers and cold stores that keep stores trading through refit programmes. Project-based rental covers single-store works up to nationwide refit rollouts
For peak trading and summer demand, Lowe supplies additional frozen capacity at scale. We deployed more than 1,500 modular cold rooms and refrigeration cabinets to over 100 Marks & Spencer stores for the Christmas peak alone. The rental model lets you scale ice cream and frozen capacity up for summer, then back down afterwards, without the capital cost. See why retailers rent additional integral refrigeration to boost summer sales.
Lowe is the official refrigeration partner for major food and beverage exhibitions. Recent deployments include 2,048 units delivered across 40 trucks for Anuga.
