The sector of frozen products in the retail world is continuously transforming and growing. In recent years, the key purchase drivers have included:
Regionality and sustainability are the ingredients to search for in every glass of wine according to 2022 trends. How best to propose wine excellence? The frigidaire wine cooler is the ideal solution to highlight the quality of products and support sales.
Good, ethical and sustainable food guides the evolution of the greengrocer sector.
With the pandemic the new trends look to a healthier lifestyle, starting from a healthier diet. In this scenario there are stores dedicated to organic and ‘healthy’ products, perceived by the buyer as healthy and respectful of the environment. Leader in the field of commercial refrigeration, Epta proposes a complete range of refrigerator cabinets to store and display organic products.
EptaService is an Epta brand specialised in after-sales assistance and consulting, which innovates the refrigeration sector with the original LineON digital solution.
The search for good food, which increased substantially during the pandemic emergency, is being further consolidated. A rediscovery that leads Retailers to reconsider the offer, the assortments and food storage, also in relation to the strong increase in the request for fresh packaged products.
Technology is transforming people’s purchasing habits. And, in recent months, next to e-commerce, quick commerce is taking hold, a further and more recent evolution in terms of digitalisation.
To ensure the conformity and allow MSAs verifications, the manufacturer’s product documentation, EPREL declaration, Energy Label, CE declaration, sales order, and associated invoices, must relate to the specific product as it is placed on the market. This documentation shall include all the components/accessories influencing the EEI of the specific unit at the time of placing on the market.
The product modifications done after the placing on the market do not alter the energy label originally supplied by the manufacturer.
The European Ecodesign and Energy Labelling Regulations do not prescribe any technical solution or product feature. However, The Ecodesign sets the minimum energy efficiency requirements and creates a selection of products according to their energy performance and the energy labels will drive the market to privilege the most efficient products with the best energy class. This will be the main driver of innovation.
The energy label must be clearly displayed in any point of sale of the refrigerating appliance with direct sales function, such as showrooms, trade fairs, online sales, etc., i.e. wherever the potential cabinet buyer may consider purchasing the appliance itself.
Regarding the position of the label, there is no precise requirement for the position but the fact that it shall be clearly visible at any time for the client.
There is no obligation for food retailers to display the energy label in their stores.
