Coolerite filters work around the clock, keeping your perishables fresh while keeping cold storage free of odor, drier, colder, and operating more efficiently, saving our customers in food, and energy costs. Decreased temperatures, compressor run times, and defrost cycles will be realized with Coolerite. Less work load on your cooler’s components mean less maintenance calls. Coolerite helps to keep your cooler/freezer in a safer condition, preventing slips and falls.
The filters are often used for HACCP or HARPC Food Safety Programs for preventive safety control. All Coolerite products are compatible with any type of refrigeration equipment and all cooler/freezer makes and models.
Here are some of the uses and benefits of Coolerite panels:
Food & Beverage
Restaurants, Convenience Stores, Grocery Stores, Hotels/Motels, Resorts, Country Clubs, Cold Storage Warehouses, Beverage Distributors, Wineries, Caterers, Bakeries, Produce, Meat, and Cheese Markets and more.
All Food and Beverage products benefit with Coolerite panels, keeping refrigeration colder, drier, and safer for food storage. Foods stay fresh longer, and shelf life increased. There is less trim loss, less food shrinkage, and less waste. Beverages remain at optimal cold temperatures. Coolerite filters help with mold, rust, bacteria, odors in your refrigeration, transfer of smell and taste odors, and reduces cross contamination, creating a cleaner and safer environment, and adding to the safety and quality to those you serve. Inspectors notice the difference with Coolerite.
Meat: Helps lower the temperature and allow fewer temperature fluctuations that have negative effects on meat. - Controls humidity, decreasing weight loss (Cryovac packaged meats benefit too) - Prevents slimy seafood, discoloring, and dehydration of all meats - Keeps meat fresher longer.
Produce: Improve the quality and extend the life of vegetables and fruit. - Vegetables such as lettuce, tomatoes, mushrooms, and asparagus stay crispier and do not brown on the edges as quickly. - Berries hold their color and taste for longer periods of time and don’t mold as quickly. - Ethylene gas has the following effects: spotting, yellowing, odor, wilting, scald and loss of desired texture. Coolerite filters removes ethylene gas.
What is Ethylene Gas: Ethylene is an odorless, colorless, natural plant hormone produced in most fruit and vegetables, as well as flowers. It initiates and accelerates the ripening of fruit and causes vegetables to deteriorate rapidly. The reason flowers deteriorate and die quickly can be attributed to ethylene gas. Coolerite panels absorbs ethylene gas significantly reducing premature deterioration. With your commodities lasting longer you have longer time to sell them, as well as providing the best assurance of quality to you customers.
Floral Markets
With Coolerite, extend the life of flowers while reducing costs. Keep flowers in inventory longer and order larger quantities at better prices or order less because of less waste. When using Coolerite you provide the freshest possible flowers to your customers. After purchase, your flowers will stay fresh longer, keeping your customers coming back.
Coolerite removes ethylene gas which has negative effects on flowers: Bud and leaf abscission (falling off), leaf yellowing, transparency, loss of deep color, flower or petal drop, irregular bud opening, and premature death. It’s estimated that upwards of 30% of flowers perish prematurely due to the harmful effects of ethylene. It doesn’t take very much ethylene to cause problems in flowers; Levels of 100 ppb (parts per billion) can cause damage over time periods greater than 24 hours. Levels of 250 ppb can cause damage in as little as 12 hours. At temperatures below 4º C (40º F) problems with ethylene sensitivity is lessened and Coolerite helps this as well by keeping refrigeration colder.
Healthcare: Hospitals, Skilled Nursing Facilities
Where safety concerns are heavily regulated, Coolerite helps. Coolerite panels decrease excess moisture and resulting wetness in and around your cooler/freezer helping to prevent injuries. Sanitary conditions in your refrigeration are more easily maintained with a drier and mold free environment, and a drier environment decreases cross contamination of odors and bacteria, along with more hygienic product and presentation with fresher, longer lasting perishables. Site inspectors see and smell the difference when a cooler’s humidity is controlled. Valuable time wasted on chipping ice is reduced or totally eliminated. Coolerite filters save on food, energy, and maintenance costs, all adding up to substantial savings.
