Metalfrio has developed a complete range of green coolers that operate with impact free gas, up to 60% less energy consumption, lower operating expenses and overall better performance at the POS.

In order to enhance our carbon management methodology, specific actions were taken to improve each and every process. Natural gas utilization and low electricity consumption were set as prior points that can create a rapid effect on Klimasan’s carbon footprint, together with waste management/reduction and recycling.
