The Hatco GRBW Glo-Ray® Buffet Warmer is designed to hold hot foods safely at optimum serving temperatures while helping maintain food quality during short-term foodservice operations. Ideal for buffet lines and temporary serving areas, this warmer combines pre-focused infrared overhead heat with a thermostatically controlled heated base to provide warmth from above and below.

The metal-sheathed heating element directs infrared heat toward the outer edges of the holding surface, where heat loss is greatest, helping maintain consistent temperatures across the food display. The heated base features an adjustable thermostat with a temperature range of 80°F to 200°F (27°C to 93°C), allowing operators to control the base heat according to serving requirements.

The GRBW includes a sturdy Plexiglas sneeze guard to help protect food products during service, along with shatter-resistant incandescent lights that illuminate the holding area and enhance food presentation while helping safeguard food from bulb breakage. A 6-foot cord and plug set provides convenient installation, while optional Designer powder-coated colors offer a durable, easy-to-clean finish that coordinates with a variety of foodservice interiors.
