Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

A popular artisan bakery in York needed to replace their outdated and  inefficient chilled display. They wanted something that not only looked more modern but also improved visibility and  accessibility for their staff during peak hours.

"The new Mafirol display has completely transformed our front counter. It’s so much brighter and  our cakes look incredible. The front-opening door is fantastic for restocking on the fly without reaching over everything. Customers have definitely noticed the difference."

Robert Davies – Owner, The York Bakehouse

Since installing the new unit, the bakery has reported a 30% increase in sales of their high-margin chilled desserts and  celebration cakes.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the final location is a firm, level surface that can support the unit's weight.
  • Leave adequate space around the unit, especially at the back, for proper air circulation.
  • Once in position, lock the castors to prevent it from moving.
  • Plug into a standard 13 amp socket and  allow the unit to reach its operating temperature before loading it with products.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the glass and  stainless steel surfaces daily with a soft cloth and  food-safe cleaner.
  • Regularly check that the door seals are clean and  making full contact to prevent cool air from escaping.
  • Gently brush any dust or debris from the condenser coils every few months to maintain efficiency.
  • Avoid overloading the shelves to ensure cool air can circulate freely around all products.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Display Cabinet

Not sure which display unit is the perfect fit for your space? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Size & Capacity

Measure your available space carefully, remembering to account for ventilation. Think about how much stock you need to display at any one time.

Staff Access

Consider your workflow. A front-opening model is great for self-service or for staff who need to restock quickly from the customer side.

Temperature Needs

Ensure the unit's temperature range is suitable for the products you'll be selling, whether it's cakes, drinks, or deli items.

Mobility vs. Static

Do you need to move your display for cleaning or to change your layout? A glass display case on castors offers valuable flexibility.

Visual Appeal

The display is part of your décor. Choose a style and  finish, like this laminated steel display showcase, that complements your brand's aesthetic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I clean the glass without leaving smears?

A: For best results, use a microfibre cloth with a quality glass cleaner. Spray the cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the glass, to avoid drips.

Q: What does 'toughened glass' mean?

A: Toughened glass (or tempered glass) is up to five times stronger than regular glass. If it does break, it shatters into small, blunt pieces, making it much safer for a commercial environment.

Q: Can I adjust the shelving inside?

A: Yes, most commercial display units like this one feature adjustable shelving, allowing you to customise the layout to fit different-sized products.

Q: How easy is the unit to move?

A: This model comes with castors as standard, which makes moving it for cleaning or repositioning very straightforward on a flat surface.

Q: Does this unit require any special electrical installation?

A: No, it is designed to run from a standard 13 amp plug socket, making it a simple plug-and-play solution.

Q: What is the benefit of a front-opening display?

A: It allows for incredibly easy restocking and  self-service access. Staff can quickly add new items or serve customers without having to reach from the back.

Q: Will this unit be noisy when it's running?

A: It's designed for commercial use and  operates at a sound level consistent with professional refrigeration, so it shouldn't be intrusive in a bustling shop or cafe.

Q: Does the display have internal lighting?

A: Yes, illuminated displays are standard for this type of cabinet to ensure your products are presented in the most appealing way possible.

What Does 'Climate Class 3' Actually Mean?

You'll often see 'Climate Class' on refrigeration specs, but what is it? Think of it as a performance rating for specific environments. A Climate Class 3 rating means this unit is designed to operate perfectly efficiently in ambient conditions of up to 25°C and  60% humidity. It’s a bit like having the right tyres for British weather; this display is engineered for the typical UK shop or café, not a scorching Mediterranean kitchen. This ensures the motor doesn't have to work overtime, keeping your energy bills down and  guaranteeing your food stays safely chilled, even on a warm, busy summer's day.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Cafes & Coffee Shops: Ideal for beautifully presenting your cakes, pastries, and  chilled drinks right at the point of sale.
  • Delicatessens & Farm Shops: Showcases cheeses, cooked meats, and  gourmet pies while keeping them perfectly fresh and  appealing.
  • Bakeries & Patisseries: This glass showcase with toughened glass ensures your delicate creations are seen and  protected.
  • Sandwich Bars & Canteens: A brilliant front-of-house unit for a grab-and-go service, encouraging quick and  easy sales.
