Commercial and industrial ice makers for restaurants, bars, cafés, hotels and food-service operations — cube ice machines, nugget ice makers, bullet ice units and under-bench models in air-cooled and water-cooled configurations from Blizzard and other commercial-grade brands. Capacities range from 25 kg/day compact underbench units up to 500+ kg/day production machines for high-volume venues. Browse our commercial kitchen equipment buying guide to compare ice types and capacities before buying. Delivery Australia-wide; showroom in Granville NSW for hands-on inspection.
Choosing the right commercial ice maker: Ice type and daily capacity are the two key decisions. Cube ice suits drinks service and is the foodservice default. Nugget/chewable ice is preferred for healthcare, smoothies and specialty beverages. Bullet ice is compact and cost-efficient for lower-volume bars. Capacity is rated in kg per 24 hours — match to your peak-day demand, not average. Air-cooled units are simpler to install; water-cooled units suit hot or enclosed plant rooms where air-cooled would struggle. Read the full guide: choosing the best commercial ice makers.
Popular picks include the Blizzard Underbench Bullet Ice Maker 25 kg/day (SN25C) for compact bars and café stations, and the Blizzard Under-Bench Ice Maker Air-Cooled SN120P for mid-volume venues needing 100+ kg/day.
Air-cooled is the default for most venues: simpler install, no water-to-drain plumbing. Water-cooled suits hot plant rooms or tight spaces with poor ventilation, but requires a drain line and uses more water. Check your kitchen's ambient temperature — above 35°C, air-cooled efficiency drops noticeably.
A rough rule: 1.5 kg of ice per restaurant seat per day for drinks service; bars run higher at 2–3 kg per seat. Hotels and events venues size by peak-day demand. Always buy one capacity tier above your average daily need to handle busy periods.
Cube ice is dense and melts slowly — standard for restaurants and bars. Nugget (chewable) ice is soft and absorbs flavours, popular in healthcare and specialty drinks. Bullet ice is small and cylindrical — produced by compact, low-cost machines suited to lower-volume café or juice bar use.
