Reducing emissions and energy consumption in food retail refrigeration requires solutions that deliver measurable results. Heos Pro is CAREL’s high-efficiency solution for plug-in and semi plug-in units, designed to combine continuous modulation, advanced control and ease of integration. Dedicated control with intuitive configuration via APPLICA, inverter and DC rotary compressors, stepper electronic valves and precise pressure and temperature sensing work together to maximis

Energy efficiency is no longer just a technical or economic issue. It has become a strategic lever for competitiveness, sustainability and social responsibility. In her new blog post, Chiara Tonon , Service End-User Business Project Manager at CAREL, analyses how energy optimisation in HVAC/R and building systems can generate concrete benefits: reduced consumption, improved performance and positive environmental impact. A data-driven approach that turns efficiency into long-

Food retail operators manage complex sites where efficiency, reliability and sustainability must work together. CAREL addresses this challenge with its Total Store solution, an integrated ecosystem that brings together refrigeration, HVAC, lighting and energy management. Controllers, power panels, software and digitally delivered services work in synergy, enabling centralised data collection, advanced analytics and coordinated optimisation across multiple sites. Cloud-based t

The iJ family is CAREL’s electronic control platform for food service refrigeration, developed to ensure optimised management, intuitive interaction and a refined design. With multiple sizes and configurations, the range now includes the new iJXL, featuring an extra-large display that improves visibility and enhances the overall appearance of professional units. Apps and IoT services extend usability beyond the interface. CONTROLLA supports end users with monitoring and HACCP

For small commercial cold rooms, monoblock units represent a practical and reliable solution. Their compact, packaged design enables faster installation than traditional centralised systems, while offering the flexibility to adapt to standard or custom layouts, including temporary installations. CAREL supports this modular approach with the iJF range of controllers and HMIs. Manufacturers can choose between compact or split solutions, as well as different interface sizes and

Designing an efficient cold room requires selecting and integrating various components to preserve product quality, reduce energy consumption, and ensure system reliability. The CAREL Cella range of controllers and accessories provides an integrated solution for seamless management. With modular controllers and integration with ExV electronic valves, we guarantee precise regulation and optimize energy performance. The new EVD ice kit is the entry level electronic expansion va

In a context where technologies, skills and market demands evolve rapidly, internal mobility is increasingly recognised as a strategic lever for both organisational resilience and individual development. In his new blog post, Andrea Baraldo , Technical Sales Engineer Refrigeration at CAREL, analyses internal mobility as more than a role change, highlighting its value in building adaptability, innovation and long-term growth within the HVAC/R industry.

µRack CO₂ is CAREL’s compact controller for the management of condensing units and small transcritical CO₂ compressor racks. Its NFC and Bluetooth connectivity, used through the Applica app, extends traditional user interfaces and simplifies commissioning, monitoring and troubleshooting directly from a mobile device. The controller supports multiple rack configurations, manages compressors, gas cooler fans and valves, and integrates algorithms for system protection and energy

Maintaining indoor relative humidity between 40 and 60% is essential for health, comfort and overall building performance. In his article, Giovanni Bonesso , Application Manager, HVAC Commercial, at CAREL, examines the scientific evidence supporting this range and its impact on indoor environments. From the Scofield-Sterling diagram to the behaviour of airborne droplets and the proliferation of mould and bacteria, the article explores why RH below 40% increases dehydration a
