Invisidoor™ for open refrigerated display cases: Cutting energy without doors
We often hear from retailers who feel forced to choose between the energy efficiency of glass doors and the trading benefits of open fronts.
The good news? You no longer have to choose.
This article explores how Invisidoor™ stabilises the air curtain to deliver the efficiency you need without adding a physical barrier, and how its aerodynamic design solves the core performance issues that have limited open-fronted refrigeration for decades.
The Informed Choice: Building better refrigeration strategies
In our latest e-book, we reveal why modern open cabinets with aerodynamic technology can outperform traditional doored fridges. From CFD modelling and real-world trials to results from Sainsbury’s, ASDA, Tesco and M&S, this guide breaks down the true performance of each approach - and what it means for retailers today.
Refrigeration Technology: Why an investment case should be based on probabilistic models
This blog looks at why probabilistic modelling provides a stronger basis for investment decisions in refrigeration technology, how Monte Carlo methods work in practice, and the advantages they offer over single-point approaches.
Supermarket Fridge Doors: There is an Alternative (Part 3)
In this article we show how new technology means for the first time, supermarkets can have the best of both worlds - all the energy savings of fridges with doors, but from open fronted, barrier-free, fridges.
