HOW SUB-ZERO TRANSFORMED THE KITCHEN
When Westye Bakke began experimenting with refrigeration in the 1930s, he was, in part, searching for a reliable way to store insulin—his young son, Bud, needed it to manage his juvenile diabetes.
In 1943, Westye built his first freestanding freezer out of scrap metal in his basement, bending the coils by hand.
Westye launched Sub-Zero Freezer Company in 1945, introducing the first system for preserving food at ultra-low temperatures—literally sub-zero. The company would quickly establish a reputation for quality and innovation.
