According to a recent survey by ENGIE Impact, almost 80 per cent of energy costs in the catering sector are due to inefficiencies in food preservation, storage and preparation. Particularly in a professional kitchen, refrigerators require more electricity than all other equipment. Upgrading refrigerated counters and cabinets can certainly help to reduce expenses.
ILSA’s professional refrigeration equipment adopts the most innovative solutions that allow the organoleptic characteristics of food to be maintained and at the same time promote energy savings. Thanks to the high efficiency of the refrigerating units, the large insulation thickness of 85 mm for less cold dispersion and the intelligent electronic control, their operation can be optimised. The ILSA Energy Saving System is a concrete help to contain electricity costs and protect the environment with an eye to sustainability, because it allows you to reduce consumption without reducing performance.
European legislation sets specifications for the eco-design of professional refrigerated cabinets. It requires manufacturers to carry out energy consumption tests under precise climatic conditions and to affix a label to appliances showing energy efficiency classes and expected kWh consumption per year.
ILSA’s wide range of products allows you to choose the most suitable equipment according to your preferred refrigerated cabinet model and energy-saving requirements.
The products in the Neos range are available in energy classes A to C. Built with a monocoque structure; they have an insulation thickness of as much as 85mm for the sides and 65mm for the door. They are powered by a high-efficiency monoblock refrigerating system and climate class 5 guarantees maximum performance even in environments up to 43°C.
Evolution refrigerated cabinets range from class C to A+. They are equipped with a tropicalised monoblock refrigerating unit (43°C), environmentally friendly refrigerant gases, low noise compressors and high energy efficiency. The intelligent defrosting system improves and increases the efficiency of the refrigeration unit, further lowering consumption.
The savings that can be achieved by replacing an old G-class model with a new high-performance A+ class refrigerated cabinet can exceed € 2,300 per year.
