Revolutionizing Supermarkets and Specialty Food Stores World-Wide

Large chain supermarkets may have the budget and resources to invest in store lighting designers and refrigeration specialists for their store equipment.

Specialty food stores and independent gourmet shops may not have that luxury however, they too can purchase the best lighting for their showcases. An investment decision or recommendation that will save their business thousands of dollars.

The objective of recommending the best — and the most cost effective — commercial equipment products for new and existing display equipment is an objective that can be achieved without sacrificing sustainability objectives and compromising food quality and merchandising success.

With fierce competition for shopper loyalty and each store trying to differentiate itself and its products while reducing operating costs, there is no better time than now to invest in supermarket equipment accessories and components that generate daily savings for the business owner.

For commerical refrigeration cases, a retrofit installation of Econofrost night covers will help save energy, keep product and case temperatures colder, longer and improve product freshness and appearance. Especially in produce departments where shrink and discard savings can be even higher than energy savings!

For fresh food display cases, the greatest returns are realized when the equipment has been properly installed with food safe lighting that illuminates the case without sacrificing color or product integrity. Promolux food lighting is a specialty light engineered just for fresh food showcases and any display case which merchandises perishable items that are heat and light sensitive.

Effective illumination in fresh food merchandiser cabinets is as important as food freshness and shelf placement. More on Promolux Food Case Lighting…

Who Are We

Supermarkets and other retail stores around the world are enjoying the many benefits of using Econofrost night covers and Promolux Food Lighting.

Benefits such as: energy savings, improved product freshness and extended shelf life and lower operating costs.

A grocery store’s refrigeration equipment accounts for about 60% of the energy being consumed and the cost of the energy bill. It’s not difficult to find stores spending over $600,000 per year in energy costs. A store can save hundreds or even thousands per month by investing in a premium quality night cover, like Econofrost.

When it comes to merchandising fresh food cases, the longer a product stays on the shelf, the greater the chance the product will have to be reduced in price, remixed or discarded altogether because it fell victim to the effects of ambient heat and light.

But for those retailers using Promolux lights in their case, they enjoy longer shelf life and product extension ensuring their shoppers buy only the freshest quality of items.

Supermarket Refrigeration Night Covers & Retail Refrigeration Energy-Saving Night Blinds

For decades, Econofrost Refrigerated Display Case Night Covers have been trusted by supermarkets, grocery chains, and food retailers as one of the fastest and most reliable ways to control energy use. On average, installing these covers leads to 37–50% per-hour energy savings during non-business hours. By limiting exposure to warm ambient air, they prevent refrigeration systems from working overtime, which in turn reduces compressor run time, lowers defrost cycles, and results in less wear on equipment. These benefits combine to extend the life of refrigeration assets while delivering tangible savings on utility bills.

Econofrost solutions are versatile, built to last, and available in multiple formats to fit different case types. Whether your store uses open coffin cases, multi-deck uprights, or specialty refrigerated displays for deli and bakery items, Econofrost has a configuration that fits. Options include retrofit cassette covers for quick installation, non-cassette models for simple roll-down use, motorized units for larger cases, and lockable covers for added security.

How Night Covers Work: Refrigeration Energy Management & Temperature Control Covers

Refrigeration Night Covers that Form a Protective Thermal Barrier

At night or during store downtime, open refrigeration units are highly vulnerable to warm air infiltration, humidity, and environmental stress that can raise case temperatures and reduce product shelf life. By installing Refrigeration Night Covers, supermarkets create a protective thermal barrier that reduces the impact of surrounding store conditions. This barrier helps preserve consistent internal case temperatures, reducing the energy required to maintain cooling and preventing perishable foods from warming to unsafe levels. By maintaining colder conditions throughout the night, the risk of product shrink and spoil is greatly reduced.

This method of Refrigeration Energy Management not only supports day-to-day efficiency but also reinforces corporate sustainability commitments. Retailers who roll out Display Case Energy-Saving Covers across multiple locations achieve rapid ROI, often seeing payback within a few months. Furthermore, because Econofrost covers help refrigeration systems operate under less stress, stores enjoy reduced maintenance costs and fewer service interruptions. It’s an investment that combines financial sense with operational resilience, making night covers a proven standard across global supermarket chains.

Food-Safe Display Lighting: LED Lighting for Grocery Refrigerated Display Cases with a Balanced Spectrum

High Color Rendering Index for Fresh Food Displays & Food Safe Display Lighting

Shoppers often make purchasing decisions based on appearance, and lighting plays a central role in that experience. Promolux LED Lighting for Grocery Refrigerated Display Cases has been designed to deliver a balanced spectrum that highlights natural food colors, making red meats look vibrant, produce appear crisp, and baked goods warm and inviting. Unlike generic case lighting that can wash out colors or make products look unnatural, Promolux technology achieves a high color rendering index for fresh food displays. This ensures that food looks just as appealing under store lights as it does in natural light.

Beyond appearance, food quality depends on protection from harmful light. Standard LEDs and store lighting often emit wavelengths that can trigger lipid and photo-oxidation, causing discoloration, flavor changes, and reduced nutritional value. Promolux minimizes these damaging portions of the spectrum, making it truly a Food Safe Display Lighting solution. Retailers benefit from longer-lasting displays, reduced product waste, and an enhanced shopping experience that builds customer trust.

Science That Protects Perishables: Optimal Light Spectrum for Fresh Food Displays

Preserve Food Freshness with LED Lighting & Longer Shelf Life for Fresh Food Displays

Behind Promolux’s lighting design is scientific research into how different wavelengths interact with perishable foods. Their Optimal Light Spectrum for Fresh Food Displays reduces exposure to specific harmful wavelengths while still maintaining accurate, attractive product presentation. This selective approach means that red meats hold their rich tones longer, seafood retains natural sheen, dairy products maintain consistent color, and bakery items keep their appetizing golden appearance.

By controlling exposure to these damaging light components, Promolux LEDs help preserve food freshness with LED lighting. The impact is not only visual but practical—stores experience longer shelf life for fresh food displays, fewer markdowns, and reduced shrink. This benefit extends to nearly every department: meat, deli, seafood, produce, dairy, bakery, and even floral displays. With sustainability and profitability in mind, adopting Promolux lighting is both a customer-focused and cost-saving decision.
