In 1945, Westy Bakke began manufacturing freezers for the home and industry that could store food at or below 0 degrees Fahrenheit, and as a result gave life to Sub-Zero Freezer Company based in Madison, Wisconsin. In the following decades, Sub-Zero has expanded its early concept and brought to market a comprehensive line of built-in models including the state-of-the-art 400 Series wine storage unit the 200 Series undercounter, the design-flexible 600 Series and the integrated 700 Series.

Exclusive to Sub-Zero and proof of its standards of engineering excellence is the dual refrigeration system, which relies
on two separate cooling systems workin to extend the life
of fresh and frozen foods. Sub-Zero is the only refrigeration company to offer dual refrigeration.

Sub-Zero has earned its position in the market as industry leader by anticipating industry trends. For the past 50 years Sub-Zero has led the industry in built-in refrigeration by manufacturing products that are as technologically groundbreaking as they
are aesthetically appealing; consistently offering solution
to the needs of its consumers.
