ENERGY STAR<\/a> is a voluntary certification promoted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy. This label distinguishes products that meet strict energy efficiency criteria without sacrificing performance or functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although it originated in the United States, ENERGY STAR is now internationally recognized and applies to a wide range of products, from household appliances to commercial refrigeration equipment.<\/p>\n<\/div> To obtain ENERGY STAR certification, refrigeration equipment must pass rigorous energy efficiency tests conducted by independent laboratories. The criteria may vary depending on the type of product, but generally include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Obtaining this certification provides several benefits for both manufacturers and end users:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the commercial and industrial refrigeration sector, where energy consumption is high due to constant use and the need to maintain precise temperature conditions, having ENERGY STAR equipment makes a big difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Supermarkets, restaurants, hospitals, and laboratories are among the environments where the benefits are most evident. For example, a supermarket with several certified refrigerated cabinets can save thousands of euros per year on electricity costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ENERGY STAR certification is not alone\u2014it is part of a global movement for efficiency. In Europe, the EU energy labeling system also serves a similar purpose, although with different methodologies. Some countries have adopted ENERGY STAR as a reference standard for equipment procurement in public tenders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Grupo Infrico, we are proud to announce that a significant part of our refrigeration equipment is already ENERGY STAR certified. This reflects our commitment not only to excellence and efficiency but also to environmental sustainability and continuous innovation.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n We use advanced technologies that achieve high levels of energy efficiency without compromising the reliability or performance of our equipment. We’ve implemented improvements in cold management, use of more eco-friendly refrigerants, and intelligent control systems that allow real-time monitoring of consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/infrico.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Energy_Star_logo.svg-2-782x800.png\"){kind=logo}
