Sustainability in the Food Retail Industry
All supermarkets today are looking to lower costs. Econofrost night covers can better help them to save energy, manage product loss and improve product freshness & appearance.
To support the efforts of retailers and reduce energy consumption, many utility companies offer rebates for night cover installations. Energy consultants and contractors are actively searching for cost-effective and energy efficient products that they can recommend to their customers. Thanks to its effective thermal barrier and energy saving design, night covers are one of the opt recommendations for both independent stores and large nation-wide chains.
Lower Operating Costs
Every time a night cover is used it helps save time, money and labour. By design, Econofrost night covers are easy to use; they are pulled down at night and retracted in the morning (the patented braking system means store associates don't have to supervise or guide the night cover back into place.) For stores that install econofrost's electric night covers, the night covers easily tie into the stores energy management system and are programmed to deploy/retract with the store's required settings. With manual overrides located at each case, the department employee can easily tend to the displays for night time stocking as needed.
Prevent Unnecessary Waste
The thermal barrier helps to keep cold air in the case while deflecting ambient heat and light away from the case. The result is cooler, more stable case and product temperatures. For retailers there is a noticeable improvement in the freshness and appearance of fresh foods and a reduction in the items that must be thrown out or trimmed each day. The cost savings in terms of product loss can represent just as much as the enrgy savings.
"During a recent power outage, we pulled down Econofrost night covers - the power was restored three hours later. The savings from this one incident more than paid for the entire store-wide installation!" |
Lower Store's Carbon Footprint
With over 300,000 cases installed with Econofrost night covers, we have helped reduce carbon emmission by 35 million tons! Econofrost's availability of 4ft, 6ft 8ft and 12ft night covers, its durability and modular design provides retailers with the most effective and affordable way to cover their open refrigerated cases. With a serviceable life of up to ten years Econofrost outlasts imitation models that end up in the landfill after a year or two!
Econofrost - The Sustainable Food Safe Night Cover!
Econofrost's unque enegineered design ensures it is the best suited night cover for food retail applications. Other night cover products apply toxic chemicals and treatments to their fabrics in an attempt to prevent mold, mildew and bacteria from growing on their product. Customers who buy Econofrost can be confident knowing that they have purchased a night cover with it's own engineered solution for greater food safety protection. The perforated fabric allows the night cover to breathe and evaporates any condensation or moisture build-up. When retracted, the taped fabric edges create an additional permability of air flow throught the fabric roll. And finally, the open cassette design allows the night cover to stay dry and free from mold/mildew when retracted. All of these features are the result of careful planning, extensive research and feedback from grocery retailers who demand top quality products.
