A kitchen can be basically categorized into two types either a residential one or a commercial one. Even though the main activity carried out in both of them is cooking but there is a difference between the two in terms of how they function. The main aim of a residential kitchen is to feed an average sized family whereas a commercial kitchen is intended to feed people in huge numbers depending upon its capacity. Hence there is a difference between the two in terms of size, capacity and most importantly the appliances. If we go by functionality and use the appliances in both the residential and industrial kitchen are similar but yet different. Both will have similar types of appliance but they are different in terms of power and capacity. Industrial kitchens will have appliances that have storage capacity and power as compared to the others.

Depending upon need and size there are various types available in the market.

Another common type of industrial refrigerator found in the commercial establishments is the worktop refrigerator. They are usually located in the middle of the kitchen and are equipped with a preparation table. These are ideally used at a pizza, sandwich or a salad station.
