The food industry is one of the primary sectors with significant refrigeration needs, currently undergoing a substantial digital transformation. This sector not only requires cooling but also demands that the refrigeration process be as energy-efficient as possible, while also adhering to environmental sustainability. This necessity arises both from consumer expectations and regulatory requirements.

Refrigeration can account for up to 80% of the total energy cost

Food Industry

The next frontier is an energy and operational strategy driven by artificial intelligence, supported by cutting-edge food industry software. This evolution is embodied by Refrigeration 4.0, which shifts from traditional, field-based maintenance without data to a system where 70% of actions are automated and preemptive—occurring before equipment failures happen.

By leveraging the latest food industry software, companies can stay ahead of the curve, achieving cost reductions, minimizing production downtime, optimizing resources, and ensuring compliance, efficiency, and sustainability in an ever-evolving landscape.

Food safety plays a vital role due to its direct impact on public health. Building consumer confidence is essential, which means the prevention, elimination, and mitigation of risks throughout the entire value chain—from producer to consumer—must be prioritized.

The food industry also relies on maximum efficiency in its production processes, striving to minimize energy consumption and maintenance costs.

New technologies and innovative food industry software solutions are driving improvements in efficiency, sustainability, and, above all, competitiveness in the sector. Leading-edge refrigeration solutions, such as NH₃ and CO₂ systems, are among the most efficient on the market. However, as refrigeration technologies mature and theoretical efficiency improvements plateau, companies need to adopt new strategies to continue advancing.

We understand your concerns

Many of the primary challenges faced by the agri-food sector are related to resource efficiency, infrastructure, and facility management, all of which have a direct impact on the safety of the food supply chain.

In particular, refrigeration systems in the food industry often fail to operate optimally and efficiently. Maintenance is primarily corrective (performed after a failure) and is carried out manually 80% of the time. To address these challenges, food industry software can play a key role in improving system performance.

We categorize these challenges into five key areas: food quality and safety, production, maintenance, energy efficiency, and environmental impact
