Colombia. Arneg Andina's technologies contributed to the modernization of the Carulla Sao Paulo supermarket located in the city of Medellín.
The company explained that the renovation has represented a considerable improvement not only in terms of appearance and offer of the store, but also in terms of energy performance and sustainability.
The shelf
In the 1,800 square meters of sales area, there are several refrigerated cabinets and, behind the scenes, five MT cold rooms (Average Temperature for meats, sausages, dairy, fish, etc.) and an LT (Low Temperature for frozen products) cold room, all driven by a transcritical CO2 system.
Carulla Sao Paulo, aware that CO2 today represents the best natural refrigerant capable of guaranteeing energy savings and at the same time a significant reduction in environmental impact, has chosen to use the Arneg Mini Booster rack, the integrated MT-LT system, available for indoor or outdoor installations with soundproof cabin and on-board electrical panel.
Its configuration, in this case, provides non-2 MT compressors, no 1 parallel compressor and LT no 2 compressors that provide 65kw in MT and 13kw in LT.
Equipment
In addition to the frame, Carulla Sao Paulo houses several Arneg refrigerated cabinets:
- Panama 3P, the multi-story vertical cabinet for displaying prepackaged fruits and vegetables;
- Osaka 3P, the vertical refrigerated cabinet with glass doors used here for dairy, sausages and cakes;
- Lisbona 2, the self-service wall cabinet for packaged meat and poultry always at your fingertips;
- Belgrade 2, the glass service counter, here used for both meat and fresh fish (the latter with ice bed), but also in the self-service variant for ready-to-eat charcuterie;
- Astana P, the vertical cabinet with glass doors for ice cream and frozen;
- Salo 4P, a low-temperature chilled island for packaged fish and seafood, perfect for promotional products.
To complete, two pieces of furniture from the Italian subsidiary Oscartielle, both operating with R290 gas (propane), another low-cost natural refrigerant and high cooling capacity:
- Dione, vertical multilayer for the promotion of juices, ready meals and other packaged foods.
- Uranus, the closed island for maximum shopping comfort, used here for the display of frozen fruit pulp.
