High Ambient Temperature
High ambient temperatures can make it difficult for open-display chillers
to maintain the required product temperature.
- Room temperature measured at 30°C
- Infrared thermometer confirms the ambient temperature
- Video shows the chiller temperature rising after the night curtain is removed
- Products may not remain within the recommended temperature range
Tailoring Solutions
We work closely with store managers to ensure the air-conditioning system is operating efficiently,
helping to minimise the impact of warm ambient air on chiller performance.
Selecting the right glass door is essential. It must fit the existing chiller frame, withstand frequent opening and closing, and provide an effective seal. Features such as door frame heaters and high-quality gaskets also help maintain stable temperatures and prevent condensation.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are pre-cooled immediately after harvest to remove field heat, preserving their quality and extending their shelf life. They are then stored at the appropriate temperature before being transported through the cold chain to retail stores.
Maintaining an uninterrupted cold chain is essential from the farm to the store. Proper refrigeration helps preserve freshness, maintain product quality, and extend shelf life until the produce reaches consumers.
