Collection: Stainless Work Tables & Storage

Stainless work tables, sink benches, wall shelves, dishwash benches and combi stands are the structural metalwork of every commercial kitchen. The right pieces match your equipment dimensions exactly, fit the GN sizing of your trays, and stand up to thirty years of trolley impact and chemical wash-down. Hospitality Connect stocks Simply Stainless, Modular, FED, Rieber, Metro and Convotherm stands — covering the everyday widths from 600mm through to 2400mm.

Range overview

Sizing your stainless layout

Standard commercial bench depth is 600mm or 700mm — match across the kitchen so undershelves line up. Combi stands must match the exact tray spacing and width of your oven brand; a Rational stand won't fit a Convotherm correctly. Sink bench widths follow the room width: 1200, 1500, 1800, 2100, 2400mm. Order with splashback unless the bench butts a tiled wall.

Material grades and finishes

• 304-grade stainless: The Australian commercial standard. Resists rust under standard kitchen chemicals.
• 316-grade stainless: For coastal venues, dishwash bays and seafood sections — resists chloride pitting.
• Granite-top benches: Simply Stainless dolomite tops for pastry sections where dough rolling needs a cool, hard surface.
• Galvanised undershelves: Cost-effective for back-of-house storage where the visible surface is the top.

Pair stainless with

Australian commercial hospitality covers a broad spectrum — quick-service chains, casual dining, fine dining restaurants, function and event centres, pubs and clubs, cafés, bakeries, hotels, aged-care kitchens, hospital food service, school canteens, government catering and the corporate function market. The right specification varies by venue type. We've supplied equipment to all of these, and that experience helps us flag when a piece of equipment is right-sized or when a different model would suit your throughput better.

Specify the rest of the back-of-house at the same time — commercial shelving, trolleys, double sink benches, and pre-rinse taps so plumbing and stainless arrive in one delivery.

Why buy stainless from Hospitality Connect

• Trade pricing on full kit-outs: Specifying every bench, shelf and stand on one quote drops the per-unit price.
• Real warehouse stock: Standard widths and combi stands ship from local stock — no Asia lead times.
• Australian-owned showroom: See the difference between brands on weld quality and bracing before you commit.
• Custom sizing on request: Modular and Simply Stainless run custom widths — quoted alongside standard SKUs.
• Multi-site project support: Coordinated deliveries for fitout teams working across multiple venues.
• No-pressure quoting: We'll quote alternatives at different price points so you can choose what fits your budget and timeline.
• Local delivery and pickup: Same-day pickup from our Melbourne warehouse; freight to all states with tracked dispatch.

Stainless care and longevity

• Wipe with the grain: Cleaning across the brushed grain shows scratches; with the grain hides them.
• Avoid chlorine on welds: Sodium hypochlorite pits 304 stainless at weld lines. Use chlorine-free sanitisers around joints.
• Don't use steel wool: Iron particles embed in the stainless surface and form rust spots. Use stainless or nylon scourers.
• Re-tighten leg adjusters quarterly: Vibration and trolley impact loosens leg threads; recheck level and torque every three months.
• Touch up scratches with a stainless polish: Don't leave deep scratches — water sits in them and crevice-corrodes the surface over time.
