Europe — Lippert Components, Inc. (Lippert™), a supplier of a broad array of highly engineered components for the leading original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) in the recreation and transportation product markets, and the related aftermarkets of those industries, recognizes DoubleCOOL™ by Polyplastic Group, a Lippert company, as a global leader in lightweight, transparent solutions for the mobility and retail markets.
DoubleCOOL by Lippert is a specialty supplier, providing custom design, manufacturing and distribution of our innovative energy saving door solutions. Our unique, patented, frameless solutions have received worldwide recognition for their innovative design and sustainable performance. DoubleCOOL offers standard and custom fit solutions for both the retrofit market and refrigerated display cabinet producers (OEMs).
Built for a better future, DoubleCOOL by Lippert cooling doors offer significant energy savings ─ up to 50% when compared to open cabinets. Their unique design allows for more even temperature distribution within the cabinets, extending the shelf life and overall quality and freshness of the food inside. Not only does this design drastically reduce food waste, it takes the next step in sustainability by supporting the use of environmentally friendly, highly efficient cooling technologies that utilize low Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerants, thereby improving the cabinet’s energy label.
“We feel obligated to contribute to a better environment with our most advanced energy-saving cooling solutions,” said Michele Checcucci, CBDO EMEA.
The innovation doesn’t stop there. “Thanks to the MMAtwo project, a multi-sectorial international consortium aimed at constructing a PolyMethylMethAcrylate (PMMA) recycling value chain, we’re able to product the first fully recycled cast acrylic doors beginning in 2024,” said Mark Bierens, Managing Director, Delta Glass.
DoubleCOOL by Lippert provides an enhanced shopping experience for customers with their extremely low weight, wide opening angles and intuitive opening technology. Food remains highly visible thanks to the innovative, double pane cast acrylic material that eliminates condensation and allows more light to pass through when compared to traditional glass solutions.
Kim Van Den Hoven, Account Manager, stated, “It’s my pleasure to create the best shopping experience for all customers.”
These easy-handling refrigeration doors feature a patented frameless solution compatible with both retrofit and OEM manufacturers. Supplied in turnkey packages with clear instructions, installation takes just ten minutes per door, allowing for business continuity and no loss of revenue.
