Cooling the Ice: The Hidden Challenge of Ice Rinks
Behind the magic of an ice rink runs a complex system that must operate continuously and in a modulated way to keep the ice sheet in optimal condition. This is not just about “making cold”: it means balancing energy, thermodynamics, and reliability in a constant equilibrium. season typically consume 1 to 3 kWh per square […]
EU Regulations and Sustainability in Cooling: Engineering the Future with Foresight
Industrial refrigeration is undergoing a major shift — driven by an EU regulatory framework that scrutinizes the environmental footprint of HVAC-R systems more closely than ever. The recent F-Gas Regulation revision and the evolving Ecodesign directives are more than a compliance hurdle. They are an opportunity to re-engineer refrigeration infrastructure. Established metrics like TEWI, LCA, […]
Beyond the cold: precision engineering for the fruit and vegetable sector
In the fruit and vegetable sector, the value of a refrigeration system is not measured solely in kilowatts of power, but in its direct impact on the product: uniform ripening, containment of weight loss and commercial stability upon delivery. These are measurable goals, yet difficult to achieve with standard solutions given the numerous variables at […]
Beyond the standard: solving sustainable refrigeration challenge at Refrigera 2025
The evolution of the refrigeration sector today is driven by a dual challenge. On the one hand, regulatory pressure is pushing towards increasingly sustainable solutions, with particular attention to natural refrigerants, energy efficiency and compliance with F-Gas regulations. On the other hand, many applications require technical performance that standard solutions simply cannot deliver. In this […]
Refrigeration for cold storage logistics: how to ensure a seamless cold chain
The cold chain is a continuous process that has one essential objective: to keep products at a constant and controlled temperature, from the point of origin to the final consumer. In the food and pharmaceutical sectors this means more than just following a technical specification: it means protecting consumers safety, preserving quality and the organoleptic […]
New series of evaporators and air coolers RN
During Chillventa exhibition held in October 2024, we presented our new series of evaporator and air coolers, increasing the range of available units. The new models, thanks to their reduced heights, make it possible to adapt to multiple requirements by optimising the space required for installation. In addition, we have developed a new series with […]
Adiabatic system with evaporative panels – PAD system
During Chillventa in October 2024, we presented our RDVM series of liquid coolers with adiabatic cooling system with evaporative panels (PAD system). Units equipped with this accessory do not require any chemical treatment of the water used to saturate the air, and there is no need for protective coatings on the coils. In addition, the […]
A new visual identity for a reality that continues
We are happy to present you our new logo, which reflects our evolution and denotes our values, which are also our main strengths. Through the renewal of the brand, we have represented everything that constitutes Refteco, that is the research, the technological progress of our products and the constant improvement of their quality, supported by […]
REFTECO srl at Chillventa 2024
Refteco participated in the Chillventa 2024 exhibition, held in Nuremberg from 08 to 10 October 2024. In this occasion, we presented to the market our V-shaped dry coolers complete with adiabatic system with evaporative panels (PAD system) and our new RN_ series of air coolers, thus further increasing our product range to meet the varoius […]
