Choosing the Right Commercial Work Table for Your Operation
Understanding the specific demands of your facility will help you find the perfect fit:
- Stainless Steel Gauges – Commercial-grade tables typically come in 14-gauge (heavy-duty), 16-gauge (standard), or 18-gauge (economy). Thicker 14-gauge steel is best for heavy equipment and constant use.
- Undershelf vs. Open Base – Choose an adjustable undershelf for extra storage of smallwares and ingredients, or an open base to accommodate ingredient bins or trash cans.
- Backsplash Options – Many industrial models feature a 1-in. to 10-in. backsplash to protect walls and prevent items or liquids from falling behind the table.
- Edge Types – Select from square edges for flush placement against other equipment, or bullnose and rounded edges for improved staff safety and easier cleaning.
