Glead Commercial Juice Dispenser (Models: GL-1P, GL-2P, GL-3P) is a hygienic, high-efficiency solution for serving non-carbonated beverages in commercial settings. With capacities ranging from 16L (GL-1P) to 48L (GL-3P), it keeps juices, iced teas, and punches fresh and at the perfect temperature—enhancing customer experience and reducing beverage waste.
The dispenser’s housing is made from 304 stainless steel—a material known for its corrosion resistance and compliance with food safety standards (NSF/ANSI 18, 21, and FDA). The beverage reservoirs are crafted from BPA-free polycarbonate, which is shatterproof and safe for contact with acidic drinks (e.g., lemon juice, orange juice) that can leach chemicals from lower-quality plastics. The closed system design prevents dust, insects, or contaminants from entering the reservoir, and anti-microbial coatings on the dispensing valves reduce bacterial growth—critical for self-serve settings where multiple people use the machine.
Glead’s dispenser offers flexible temperature options to match your beverage type:
Chilled models: Integrate a quiet, energy-efficient compressor that maintains beverages at 1–4°C (34–39°F)—the optimal range for preserving the freshness and safety of perishable juices (e.g., orange, apple, grapefruit). The GL-1P uses 440W of power for cooling, while the GL-2P and GL-3P use 153W (more efficient for larger capacities).
Ambient models: For non-perishable drinks (e.g., lemonade, iced tea, fruit punch), the dispenser has no cooling system—ideal for outdoor events or locations with limited power access.
Optional ice beds: Add a removable ice bed to ambient models for rapid cooling without electricity. The ice bed fits beneath the reservoir, keeping beverages cold for 6+ hours using just ice, making it perfect for catering events like weddings or outdoor festivals.
Flow rate: The push-button valves deliver 1.5–2.5 gallons of beverage per minute—fast enough to serve 10+ customers per minute during peak hours (e.g., breakfast buffets or school lunch periods). The valves are designed to prevent drips, reducing spills and cleanup time.
Ergonomic design: The push-button (or optional lever) valves are easy to operate with one hand, making them accessible for children, elderly customers, or people with limited mobility—ideal for schools, nursing homes, or family-friendly restaurants.
Removable reservoirs: Reservoirs lift out of the dispenser without tools, allowing staff to refill them at a sink or prep area instead of carrying heavy juice buckets to the machine. The wide reservoir lids prevent spills during refilling and make it easy to add fruit slices (e.g., lemon, lime) for garnish.
Transparent polycarbonate reservoirs showcase the beverage’s vibrant color—bright orange juice, deep red cranberry punch, or green iced tea—attracting customers and encouraging them to try the drink. Optional LED accent lighting (available for GL-2P and GL-3P models) illuminates the reservoir, making the dispenser a focal point on buffet tables or restaurant counters. Custom header panels are also available, letting you display your brand logo, beverage flavors (e.g., “Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice”), or nutrition information—helping you promote your brand and inform customers.
The stainless steel drip tray has a quick-release drain plug, making it easy to empty and clean without disassembling the entire machine. All modular components—reservoirs, valves, drip trays—are dishwasher-safe, simplifying deep cleaning. The compressor in chilled models comes with a 5-year warranty, and the stainless steel housing resists scratches, dents, and stains—ensuring the dispenser maintains a professional appearance even after years of heavy use.
Breakfast buffets in hotels and restaurants need to serve large volumes of fresh juice to guests efficiently, while also maintaining the beverages’ quality and appeal throughout the morning service. The Glead GL-3P model (48L capacity) is ideal for this, as it can hold multiple juice varieties (e.g., orange, grapefruit, apple) in separate reservoirs—eliminating the need for multiple small dispensers.
Schools and healthcare facilities (hospitals, nursing homes) prioritize beverage safety, accessibility, and portion control—all of which the Glead Juice Dispenser delivers. The GL-2P model (32L capacity) is a popular choice for schools, as its chilled function keeps juices fresh for the entire school day (8 AM–3 PM) and the BPA-free reservoirs ensure no harmful chemicals leach into the drink. The portion-controlled flow rate (1.5 gallons/minute) prevents students from over-pouring, reducing waste by up to 20%—a key benefit for schools with tight budgets. For healthcare facilities, the 304 stainless steel housing is easy to disinfect with hospital-grade cleaners, and the push-button valves are accessible for patients with limited hand strength. Nurses can use the dispenser to serve fresh juice to patients, and the removable reservoirs make it easy to clean between uses—critical for preventing cross-contamination in hospitals.
Outdoor catering events like weddings, festivals, or corporate picnics often lack access to power, making traditional chilled dispensers impractical. The Glead GL-1P model (16L capacity) solves this with its ambient design and optional ice bed—staff can fill the ice bed with crushed ice, which keeps the juice cold for up to 6 hours without electricity. The compact size (420450680mm) fits easily on event tables, and the lightweight design (12kg) makes it easy to transport to remote locations (e.g., beach weddings, park festivals).
Convenience stores rely on self-service beverage options to attract customers and increase sales, and the Glead GL-1P countertop model is perfectly suited for this. Its compact size fits on the store’s counter near the checkout, making it easy for customers to grab a drink before leaving. The chilled function keeps iced tea, lemonade, or fruit punch cold all day, and the transparent reservoir showcases the beverage’s freshness—encouraging impulse purchases. The push-button valve is simple to use, and the drip tray keeps the counter clean, reducing staff cleanup time.
