Refrigerated and freezing showcases for equipping trade halls

The segment of the modern market, which is responsible for the wholesale and retail sale of food products, is not able to function fully without professional refrigeration equipment.

This technique differs in the temperature regime:

• Medium temperature refrigerators (0 ... +7 ^о С). Used for storage and exhibition of dairy products, beverages, canned goods and confectionery.
• Universal (-6 ... +6 ^о С). Used for storage and exhibition of chilled meat, poultry, fish.
• Freezing showcases (-24 ... -18 ^о С). Used for storage and exhibition of frozen foods and certain types of alcohol.

Refrigeration technology provides a correct storage and an effective exhibition of products, which due to its properties can not be stored at room temperature.

Manufacturers have provided everything - for each food product you can find an assembly that will provide the necessary storage temperature, adjust the humidity level. In this article, we will look at the basic refrigeration and freezing equipment necessary to equip the trading rooms, and describe their functionality.

General characteristics

Regardless of the final destination, all professional equipment has the following characteristics:

• High level of wear resistance. By creating their own equipment, manufacturers realized that it would be subjected to intensive exploitation.
• Attractive appearance. The client first of all needs to attract a spectacular "facade". All refrigeration equipment for trade halls is distinguished by high-quality illumination, smooth lines, stylish color solutions. Almost all manufacturing plants provide a branding service. For example, a freezer can have a special bright coating on top of it, which contains information about the contents, whether it's ice cream, semi-finished products or something else.
• Possibility to equip both built-in and remote unit. The latter is particularly relevant for large retail areas - if you force them with appliances with a built-in unit, the air in the room will overheat. Especially it concerns freezing equipment, which must be provided with a stably low temperature.
• Reinforced construction. Design bureaus in the development of models took into account the "human factor", due to which professional refrigerating and freezing showcases are distinguished by an increased anti-vandal protection.

Cabinets

Horizontal refrigerating cabinets differ by:

• To the volume. The working volume varies from 29 to 1,500 liters.
• The kind of doors. Since the equipment serves as a showcase, they are by default glass, but, depending on the model, can be swinging or coupe.
• Temperature regime (this question is highlighted above).
• The hull. It can be made of painted metal or stainless steel.
• Execution - floor or table.

Showcases

Freezing showcases - horizontal commercial equipment. Differ by:

• The length. Depending on the model, it varies from 90 to 2 800 cm.
• Temperature regime.
• Execution - floor or table.
• By type of zone calculations. Can be simple or gastronormirovannymi (for the sale of loose ice cream, for example).

Hills

Refrigerated chutes - specialized equipment with a vertical arrangement, mainly installed in self-service stores. They are open cabinets without doors. Products are laid out on shelves, and visitors can freely take what they want. Gorki distinguish:

• By lenght. Depending on the model, it varies from 90 cm to infinity (in the case of remote units).
• On the temperature regime. By default, it is considered that the cooling slide can only cool the products, but a number of manufacturers meet universal and low-temperature models.

Bonety

This is a horizontal refrigeration equipment. It has a large working volume. Particularly in demand in shops with self-service. The functional is the same as that of the slides. Bonuses vary:

• By design - with glass lids or open.
• On the temperature regime. The most popular freezer showcases-bonbons, operating in the range -24 ... -18 ^о С, but there are other varieties, for example, those in which the regime is maintained within -5 ... +5 ^о С and 0 .. +7 ^o C.
• By the absence or presence of a superstructure - a special neutral superstructure. In fact, this is a regular shelf, on which you can lay out any product that does not require cooling. The superstructure allows you to save space in the trading floor.

Lari

Freezing lari is one of the most popular varieties of refrigeration equipment. They can be found in any store, regardless of its scale. Larry is distinguished by:

• Type of cover. It can be deaf, glass straight or glass curved.
• The temperature regime is -24 ... -18 ^о С or -3 ... +3 ^о С.
• The working volume - freezer, depending on the model, provides from 150 to 800 liters of working volume.
