  1. EXTEND SHELF LIFE, LOWER ENERGY USAGE IN RETAIL REFRIGERATION ECONOFROST www.econofrost.com

  2. THE RETAIL REFRIGERATION CHALLENGE Refrigerated open-display cases stand idle during non-peak hours yet consume significant energy. Perishable products (e.g., dairy, meat, produce) in open cases face operational risk: temperature fluctuations, spoilage. Retailers need to balance food quality (freshness) with cost control (energy, waste). CONTINUE

  3. WHAT ARE NIGHT COVERS? Night covers are insulating barriers applied during closing hours over open-display cases. Econofrost Night Covers create a “thermal barrier” that helps maintain internal case temperatures when not actively served. They are designed for durability in the rigorous environment of supermarket refrigeration.

  4. HOW NIGHT COVERS EXTEND PRODUCT FRESHNESS When open cases are exposed, ambient warm air enters, increasing product surface temperature, accelerating spoilage. Night covers reduce temperature fluctuation, helping maintain optimum cooling and thereby extending shelf-life. Less shrink means better product yield and fewer markdowns. CONTINUE

  5. HOW NIGHT COVERS LOWER ENERGY USAGE By reducing thermal load, compressors and cooling Result: lower operating costs, and better environmental performance (less carbon footprint). systems work less hard overnight. Energy consumption drops because the case isn’t fighting infiltration of warm air nor recovering from it.

  6. BENEFITS FOR THE RETAILER Reduced energy bills — cost savings. Improved food quality perception — fresher inventory, less waste. Enhanced sustainability credentials = stronger brand image. Durable, low-maintenance solution ensures long-term value.

  7. WHERE NIGHT COVERS WORK BEST Meat and seafood open-display cases (high perishability). Dairy, produce, deli counters with open-air display. Overnight / non-customer hours when the case is idle but cooling still required. Retrofit into existing display environment or as part of new-install strategy.

  8. IMPLEMENTATION CONSIDERATIONS Ensure proper sizing and fit of night covers for each case type. Operational protocols: staff must deploy covers reliably at closing time. Monitor energy and freshness metrics before and after install to quantify benefit. Maintenance: inspect covers for wear/tear given high-usage environment.
