We recently introduced our new energy-saving glass doors, and the benefits of investing in them for your business.
The MTCSS team are here to help you make the best-informed decisions for your business – especially when it concerns a large investment, like these glass doors for your refrigerated display cabinets!
Which is why we’re here to explain exactly what these glass doors are, what they are used for, why retrofitting is important, and how we can help you.
What Are Refrigerated Cabinets & The Benefits of Retrofitting for Businesses
First up, let’s understand why these glass doors are required.
These energy-saving glass doors are used for the initial installation or retrofitting to your refrigerated display cabinets.
What Is a Refrigerated Display Cabinet?
Refrigerated display cabinets are a type of chiller or freezer unit powered by an integral compressor or a remote unit powering a number of cabinets used to store products that would perish in ambient conditions (on the shelves, for example). They also allow customers to see the products displayed within the cabinet clearly, and easily choose their desired product.
How Do Glass Doors Benefit Refrigerated Cabinets?
If glass doors are installed or retrofitted onto your refrigerated display cabinets, they can help your business to save money in the long run, due to a reduction in energy consumption.
This reduction in energy consumption is provided by the glass doors – reducing the amount of refrigerated being exposed (and wasted), as it is contained within the refrigerated cabinet and only released once the doors are opened (for example, by an employee or customer).
What Are The Benefits of Retrofitting Glass Doors to Refrigerated Cabinets?
The key benefits are:
- Reduction in energy costs (up to 50%)
- Reduction in carbon emissions
- Improves refrigerated display cabinet efficiency (and therefore, an improved lifetime of your cabinets)
- Reduces ‘cold aisle syndrome’ for customers, making for a more comfortable shopping experience
So, which glass door would benefit your business best?
