Leading companies in the refrigerated display cabinet market are focusing on developing sustainable technologies, such as propane-based cabinets, to improve temperature control and reduce energy consumption. Propane-based refrigerated cabinets utilize propane (R290) as a refrigerant, offering a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional refrigerants. For example, in October 2023, AHT, an Austrian-based heating and refrigeration technology manufacturer, introduced a new range of propane-based refrigerated cabinets called KALEA. These units represent a significant advancement in efficiency and sustainability for retailers. The KALEA range caters to both medium- and low-temperature applications and is available in plug-in and semi-plug-in units to meet diverse store requirements. The semi-plug-in units seamlessly integrate into glycol-water systems, capturing waste heat from refrigeration for space heating or hot water production, thereby reducing energy consumption and costs. These units also feature multiplex connections for effortless integration with water loop systems, ensuring smooth and efficient operation.
