FREOR, with the help of sales and maintenance partner in the country Frigie King, traveled to the biggest city of the country – Auckland, located on New Zealand’s North Island, where FREOR commercial refrigeration equipment was implemented in the recently restored Smart Supermarket.
The supermarket chose Hydroloop Hybrid cooling system for its commercial refrigeration equipment, which operates with natural propane (R290) gas refrigerant, featuring a global warming potential (GWP) of just 3.
Hydroloop cooling systems from FREOR recently started gaining even more recognition from clients while considering environmentally friendly cooling solutions. Using one of the most sustainable refrigerants, R290, the system also features an extra low refrigerant charge and a very low leakage rate, reducing environmental impact.
The Smart Supermarket’s chosen Hydroloop Hybrid system allows combining two different heat removal systems with the possibility to switch over between emitting the heat directly into the shop via an air condenser mounted in the equipment (in the winter) or removing it from the shop via glycol line to the outside (in the summer). Reusing the excess condensation heat to warm up the shop and energy-efficient compressors in the system can save up to 25 % of the supermarket’s energy, making it a sustainable and energy-efficient cooling solution.
The store employed JUPITER multidecks, consisting of more than 46 meters in length around the store, for the majority of the fresh product display. The store chose two versions of a multideck chiller – with glass doors for better energy efficiency and an open version – for a high sales turnover.
Serve-over counters VEGA SPACE QB HG with an enlarger exposition area were implemented to create a visually appealing presentation for the fresh meat display.
FREOR implemented horizontal freezers LEDA with endcases arranged into 16 meters long islands in total for the presentation of frozen goods and ice cream. The encases can be used to display special promos to enhance merchandising.
