SPAIN’S ICE-COOL REFRIGERATION EXPERT ARRIVES IN UK

Infrico, Spain’s leading manufacturer of commercial refrigeration, has arrived in the UK to help caterers drop the temperatures whilst making some ice-cool savings.

The company, which makes everything from bottle coolers to bespoke cold rooms, has launched a new UK operation in order to sell its innovative equipment direct to the trade.

With a new trade showroom in Walsall, Infrico aims to invigorate the UK’s medium-high end refrigeration market by offering better quality, greener systems at more competitive prices.

General Manager Andrew Macdonald said the move gave caterers better access to the range and its pioneering technology, with all the benefits of buying direct from the manufacturer.

“We aim to give caterers the opportunity to make some real cost savings during a fractious economic climate,” he said. “We are now also able to supply any part on request, with knowledgeable, attentive customer service and on-site support whenever needed.

“Our commitment to innovation through the use of the latest generation technology and independently accredited quality systems has put us on the industry front line, resulting in a majority share of the Spanish market.

“There are plenty of cheap, economy brands out there, many coming from China, but investing in quality that will last and last is invaluable in the longer term. Also, by coming to the UK, we intend to explore new opportunities across foodservice.”

With a comprehensive range including refrigerated tables from 600mm to 800mm deep, upright fridges and freezers in a variety of combinations and dramatic showcases for everything from sushi to cakes, Infrico is the first Spanish company of its kind to receive international ISO accreditation for its quality management system.

Whether you run a pub, coffee shop or restaurant, the Infrico range’s innovative features are designed to make working as hassle free and hygienic as possible, provide maximum insulation and greater storage space, all while making cleaning and maintenance far easier.

Infrico only uses high quality, AISI 304 stainless steel in its units, adhering to the highest standards in catering, something inferior grades of stainless steel struggle to do. For the caterer, this eliminates odour retention and bacteria build up from greasy acids.

The company, which also makes worktables with stainless steel or granite tops, is committed to the development of a sustainable industry through the best use of natural resources, responsible processing of waste, and, wherever possible, recycling and reusing materials.
