Cold rooms and coatings

Viessmann-TectoCHILLVENTA 2014 PREVIEW: Viessmann will exhibit new products from its TECTO cold room ranges and its full range of cold storage products.

In September, Viessmann became the first cold room manufacturer to offer antimicrobial powder coatings on its cold rooms, the first example of which will be on display at the show. SmartProtec is said to take cold room hygiene to a new level, combatting 20% more microbial strains than the company’s previous coating. It covers all exterior and interior wall, floor and ceiling surfaces of Viessmann’s TECTO Standard and Special cold rooms.

Chillventa also marks the first public display of Viessmann’s new TECTO Compact cold room range. TECTO Compact offers affordability and shorter lead times, allowing smaller private gastronomy, restaurant, hotel and caterer customers to acquire hygienic and energy efficient cold storage up to 3.6m x 6m. This cold room range requires no timely planning and specification progress, which in turn, reduces the cost of production, without compromising the quality.

Reflecting its position as a provider of total refrigeration solutions, the Viessmann stand will also contain a new Visio high capacity, low floor space plug-in multideck as well as the popular Aida display cabinet, suitable for both hot and cold food.

Viessmann Refrigeration is also launching EWAP – a new fan evaporator for CO2 coolant. Meeting the future requirements of HFC regulations, EWAP evaporators will be used in conjunction with Viessmann’s cold rooms and are a part of the company’s full cold storage solutions. The EWAP evaporator is faster to install and service than existing evaporators on the market.
