What is a refrigerated display case?

Refrigerated display cabinets are equipment designed to display and preserve perishable foods at cool temperatures. This equipment enhances the presentation of the products, and at the same time guarantees freshness and food safety.

If you want to buy a display case for your business, here are some key things to consider:

1. Attractive presentation: These display cases are designed with transparent materials, such as glass, which allow a clear view of the stored products. This creates an attractive presentation that can stimulate sales by highlighting the freshness and quality of the food.
2. Food preservation: The main function of these cabinets is to keep food at cold temperatures to prolong its shelf life and prevent bacterial growth. This is especially crucial for products such as cakes, salads, dairy products, meats and other perishable items.
3. Temperature control: Refrigerated display cabinets offer precise temperature control, ensuring that food is kept in ideal conditions for preservation. Many models allow customised adjustments to suit different types of products.
4. Variety of designs and sizes: A variety of design options and sizes are available to meet the specific needs of different establishments, from small bakeries to large supermarkets. They can be vertical or horizontal, to be placed on worktops or bars, with adjustable shelves or trays depending on the type of products to be displayed.
5. Energy efficiency: Modern showcases are designed to be energy efficient, with technologies that minimise electricity consumption. This not only benefits the environment, but also reduces operating costs for businesses.
6. Interior lighting: Many showcases have LED interior lighting systems that enhance the presentation of products and attract the attention of customers. This lighting can be adjusted to highlight specific areas of the display case.
7. Easy access and cleaning: These display cabinets are designed for easy access to the products and for easy cleaning. Sliding doors, easy-opening systems and scratch-resistant materials are common in these devices.
8. Diverse applications: They are used in a variety of environments, from bakeries and pastry shops to restaurants, supermarkets, among others. The versatility of these display cabinets makes them ideal for the display and preservation of a wide range of fresh produce.

When choosing a refrigerated display case, it is essential to consider the specific needs of the business, the quantity and type of products to be displayed, as well as the energy efficiency and aesthetic design that suits the shop environment.

Maintenance of refrigerated display cabinets in Málaga

As with any refrigeration equipment, refrigerated display cabinets require regular maintenance to ensure optimum performance and prolong their service life. If this is not done, we do not expose ourselves to a breakdown at the worst possible time, in the middle of the season or at peak times, with the risk of financial losses that far exceed those of a maintenance service.

With maintenance we can prevent problems, ensure energy efficiency and maintain proper storage conditions.

These are the main maintenance tasks required for refrigerated display cabinets:

1. Regular cleaning: Shop staff should regularly clean the internal and external surfaces of the display case. This includes shelves, glass and panels. Otherwise the accumulation of dust and dirt can affect the energy efficiency and the presentation of the products.
2. Check gaskets and seals: Our maintenance team periodically checks the door gaskets and seals to ensure that they are in good condition. Faulty seals can allow unwanted air to enter, affecting the internal temperature.
3. Drain inspection: Check that the drain is clean and unobstructed. Blocked drains can cause water accumulation and affect the performance of the equipment.
4. Checking the thermostat and temperature controls: Our inspection technicians check the thermostat and temperature controls to ensure that they are calibrated correctly.
5. Inspection of fans and coils: Another task we perform is to check the fans and coils, they must be free of dust and obstructions to maintain good air circulation.
6. Maintenance of electrical components: Another important task we carry out during maintenance is to check the condition of electrical components such as switches, cables and plugs. Any signs of wear or damage should be addressed immediately to avoid incidents.
7. Filter replacement: In those businesses that have showcases with air filtration systems, we take care of changing or cleaning the filters according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

The maintenance of refrigerated display cabinets must be carried out by specialised technicians. That is to say, with the training and experience to avoid making mistakes and to be able to advise the client if it is advisable to make some kind of renovation to avoid problems in the short and medium term.
