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

The only way to continue advancing is to establish an energy and operational strategy supported by artificial intelligence.

Refrigeration 4.0 involves transitioning from a 100% field-based maintenance approach without data to a maintenance system with 70% automated actions, occurring prior to equipment failure.

This approach results in cost reduction, minimization of production downtime, and optimization of resources.

Food safety is a crucial aspect due to its direct impact on health. Instilling consumer confidence is essential; therefore, it is imperative to prevent, eliminate, and reduce risk to the maximum extent possible throughout the entire value chain, from producer to consumer. The food industry requires the highest efficiency in its production processes, with minimal energy and maintenance costs.

New technologies applied to the food industry contribute to enhancing efficiency, sustainability, and, above all, competitiveness.

The most efficient refrigeration solutions on the market are NH₃ and CO₂. In the context of mature refrigeration technologies with limited potential for improving theoretical efficiencies.

We understand your concerns

Many of the primary challenges faced by the agri-food sector are related to resource efficiency, infrastructure, and facility management, as these factors significantly impact the safety of the food supply chain. Specifically concerning refrigeration systems, these systems often do not operate optimally and efficiently, with maintenance predominantly being corrective (performed after a failure) and conducted manually 80% of the time.

Therefore, we categorize these challenges into five key areas: food quality and safety, production, maintenance, energy, and environmental impact.
