Refrigeration Retail Display
Without protection, open display coolers can waste a lot of energy. Econofrost thermal night covers protect display coolers from incurring unnecessary energy losses. Reduce heating and air conditioning costs overnight, just by pulling down Econofrost night curtains while the store is closed. Extending the shelf life of perishable foods and reducing waste from trimming fresh produce bring direct savings. Ensuring food safety and integrity is always good business and brings customers back. Designed to last the full life of your display cases, you can protect your profit margin with Econofrost thermal blinds that require less maintenance, require less labor and ensure better food safety. Econofrost retractable night curtains were designed by engineers to meet the highest quality specifications for usage, efficiency and durability. What makes Econofrost night covers unique lies in the specialized fabric engineered to create more than an efficient thermal barrier--one that is unobtrusive during the day, flexible, and easy to roll down at night. Econofrost blinds are made of food safe materials and are easy to clean so staff can ensure hygienic supermarket food display storage. Save over 36% Energy for Grocery Marketing Display Coolers Independent lab tests have demonstrated the economic benefits of using Econofrost night covers to improve the efficiency of refrigerated coolers. ASHRAE, the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air conditioning Engineers, and other organizations, conducted scientific tests showing that during the hours Econofrost night covers are pulled down over open store coolers, direct refrigeration costs are reduced by at least 36%. When the thermal blinds are raised, the stabilized temperatures keep the contents of the coolers cooler for up to 15 hours. Econofrost provides an overnight solution with daytime impact Food retailers can now significantly reduce commercial refrigeration energy costs by rolling down Econofrost reflective night covers while the store is closed to stabilize cooler temperatures overnight or during any power interruption. The beneficial effects of keeping the chilled foods at ideal temperatures within the display cabinets last up to 15 hours after the night covers have been rolled up in the morning. Where Econofrost woven aluminum night covers are installed, tests have shown energy savings to be as high as 37% to 50% and waste from daily produce trim reduced by up to 75%. Econofrost shows that the best way to protect the contents of refrigerated coolers while the store is closed is to efficiently deflect heat and light emissions outward and trap the cold air inside the case with an efficient thermal barrier, while allowing condensation to evaporate and preventing the formation of mildew. The reflective aluminum material is flexible and coated with a thin clear film. Econofrost Reflective Night Covers Protect Foods on Display Supermarkets and smaller retail food stores display refrigerated foods in open display cases to provide appealing food arrangements and unrestricted access for customers. But easy access has a price. Open coolers tend to overwork compressors and waste energy as the refrigerated curtain of air is constantly warmed by surrounding air. An open display merchandiser can have wide variations of temperature within the case, and food items sitting in the front are subject to warming beyond safe levels. Closed cabinets, on the other hand, present a physical barrier and detract from the marketing impact of placing fresh food items close at hand. Econofrost night curtains feature a patented 99%-pure woven aluminum fabric which is bonded with PVC for strength. In addition, to avoid oxidation, a transparent film is applied over the aluminum, and then the back is coated with a fire retardant. A pattern of tiny holes allows the fabric to breathe and avoid buildup of excessive condensation. Ensure Food Safety and Integrity Econofrost night covers are hygienic and easily cleaned, and are made from a perforated fabric that prevents the accumulation of humidity that causes mildew and cultivates germs. Econofrost helps control the temperature of foods stored in refrigerated display coolers and keep them cool longer. Keep Foods Cool to Extend Shelf Life Less warming and melting in coolers result when temperatures are more stable overnight. Extend the shelf life and and protect food quality andfood safety with Econofrost night covers in refrigerated retail display coolers. Plus
Your Store Can Reduce Shrinkage of all Perishables Econofrost installations in a major western supermarket chain are demonstrating a reduction in shrinkage that is much greater than they had expected in all perishables covered at night. The stores report that the savings from reduced trim and discard in their produce departments is over 75%. An Econofrost representative reports: "These savings alone can pay for the whole installation in a matter of a few weeks. " Energy rebates from the utility company further increased the this chain's payback on their investment in Econofrost night blinds. Organic produce and meat products normally deterioriate more quickly than conventional foods and present the marketer with an even greater challenge for keeping perishables safe and appealing. Econofrost night covers cover the organics overnight and stabilize cooler temperatures, bringing less expensive more efficient storage and longer shelf life to fresh food products in the store. Your Store Can Cut Down on Supermarket Trim Consistent with a 2006 study conducted at the major US supermarket chain store, the new Econofrost installations have shown that Econofrost Reflective Night Covers reduce supermarket waste by 75%. Tests demonstrated how reducing the amount of produce trimmed from food displays brought the store their return on investment in just over four months. The produce department manager reported an “average decline in trim from one barrel a day to one quarter barrel a day,” eliminating produce losses of $50 to $65 per day and reducing the labor needed to trim and clean up the produce displays. Researchers reported that the store saved more than $8000 over a five month test period in the typical large supermarket setting. No matter how large or successful your retail food outlet is, or whether you are an independent grocer, a franchise operator, or the owner of a multi-level supermarket chain, everyone in the business of retail food distribution and storage has to be concerned about rising energy costs and how to prolong the life of your refrigerated display equipment.

Econofrost is an industry-leading woven aluminum thermal shield that can be ordered already installed in new display cabinets and or can be retrofitted to your existing refrigerated display cases.
