Three different door styles – panel ready, stainless steel and a choice of over 1,000 colors and 10 metal trims – help create the ultimate custom kitchen

Blandon, PA, September 15 – BlueStar®, manufacturer of high-performance, customizable appliances for the home, has expanded its award-winning premium refrigeration line with all new integrated column refrigerators and freezers featuring luxurious stainless steel and glass interiors and unmatched options for customized style. The new Columns provide oversized capacity, plus signature BlueStar® features like pull out trays and extra-large, fully extending drawers, designed to fit the needs of a true chef’s kitchen, both in terms of performance and design.

“BlueStar’s trademark is our unparalleled customization and professional-level performance. Customers today are seeking appliances they can personalize, customizable on the inside to fit their lifestyle, and customizable on the outside with a variety of colors, trims and configurations to fit their personal style,” said Eliza Sheffield, president, BlueStar®. “Our new Column refrigerators and freezers offer customers limitless design freedom in planning the essential chef’s kitchen.”

Unlimited Design Flexibility
The new integrated Columns are customizable for a variety of configurations and styles. While the Columns are panel-ready to integrate seamlessly with cabinets, customers also can choose traditional stainless steel for a more professional look. Or, exclusive to BlueStar®, you can select from a palette of more than 1,000 colors or create a custom color to match other kitchen décor or cabinets. Ten metal trim options, including brushed brass, antique brass, antique copper, and pewter, are available for a distinctive finishing touch. BlueStar® also can custom color match appliances to paint colors, or match paint colors to appliances. All column products can be color coordinated with BlueStar’s high-performance line of cooking equipment and ventilation to complete a fully customized BlueStar® kitchen suite.

Unlike traditional refrigeration, the BlueStar® vertical refrigerator columns can be easily paired with any size freezer column. BlueStar® Column refrigerators are available in 24” and 30” sizes; freezers are available in 18”, 24” and 30” sizes. You can pair two together for a built-in, side-by-side look or build a beautiful ‘refrigeration wall’. The refrigerator and freezer column are both available with a left hinge door swing or right hinge door swing, so they can be built in on either side of one another or installed on opposite ends of the kitchen. The design possibilities are endless.

“Integrated columns have been growing in popularity with interior designers and homeowners because they offer professional-grade performance, convenience and complete design flexibility. We are excited to take this level of customization to the next level with our unmatched color and trim options,” said Sheffield.

Column Refrigerators
Available in 24” and 30” sizes, Column refrigerators offer unmatched capacity and customization options with professional grade performance. With stainless steel and glass interiors, these professional-grade integrated refrigerators feature a fully extending slide tray that fits a sheet pan for effortless cooling to cooking prep, a BlueStar® signature. Extra-large, fully extending crisper drawers provide deep storage and full visibility. Stunning LED lighting makes locating items effortless, and the easy- to-use touch screen control includes Sabbath and Shopping modes, ideal for getting food back to temperature after returning from the market.

Column Freezers
BlueStar® column freezers are available in three sizes, 18”, 24” and 30”. These freezers include heavy duty construction, commercial-style design, full extension metal drawers and extra-bright LED lighting.
