Decarbonizing your business
At Danfoss, we can be your preferred decarbonization partner. With our full range of industrial refrigeration solutions, we help you use less energy, reducing emissions and costs. From ammonia to CO₂ based systems, from food manufacturing and processing to storage and distribution, our end-to-end solutions can make your refrigeration processes more efficient.
The food and beverage industry relies heavily on energy, consuming 30% of global electricity. A major portion of this comes from refrigeration, which plays a critical role in maintaining food quality and safety. In food processing, refrigeration accounts for 35% of the total energy bill, while in cold storage, it rises to 54%. Optimizing refrigeration efficiency is key to reducing energy costs and supporting more sustainable operations.
Backed by more than 80 years of experience in the global refrigeration business, we develop and supply the right products for advanced, environmentally friendly cooling installations.
Danfoss offers specialized solutions for both food processing and cold storage, addressing the unique demands of each sector. We emphasize the importance of freezing performance in food processing industries to ensure product quality and safety.
With Danfoss, you benefit from low operation and maintenance costs, reliable performance, and a partner with extensive industry experience. Trust us to support your refrigeration needs from field to fork, while also helping you achieve your decarbonization goals.

Food processing plants require a dependable source of water in large quantities for the washing and rinsing, steaming, cooking, and cooling of food, and during plant sanitation operations. That’s why a large Midwest food processor wanted full control over its water supply by constructing a private water well on its own property. However, what looked like a simple solution was quite complex below the surface — as the well driller discovered when he embarked on the project.

This is the sixth in our series of articles on walk-in coolers and freezers.
As seen throughout this article series, walk-ins are only as good as the components that are included in it. An important piece of the puzzle is the thermostat. A walk-in’s main job, not to put too fine a point on it, is to be cold. Maintaining the internal temperature is critical for meeting food safety standards and keeping product fresh for as long as possible. To do this, while also improving the energy efficiency of the system, a reliable thermostat is required.
