1-Static cooling display cases: they generate the cold air in the internal grill and it comes in direct contact with food. Static cooling display cases maintain a good level of humidity, but show clear thermal differences between the upper and lower shelves. They are very practical for preserving fresh and prepared meats.

2-Ventilated refrigeration display cases: this type of refrigerated display cases produces the cold air in its internal part and distributes it through the chamber by means of a ventilating belt, reaching temperatures ranging from -1ºC to 5ºC. They are the most used in buffet restaurants because they maintain the temperature for frozen and packaged products, sausages or dairy products.

3-Double ventilated refrigeration display cases: Do you want to include an ice-cream menu in your buffet? These display cases are the solution! These equips are created to work at low temperature, reaching -14ºC with great thermal uniformity.

4-Semi-static refrigerated display cases: through their combination of ventilated and static technology, these display cases cool the food and prevent it from drying out thanks to the rotation of its fan that removes the air. In them it is possible to store fresh or packaged food indistinctly.
