In the complex world of healthcare food service operations, keeping food safe and stored well relies heavily on refrigeration equipment. Success means being precise and efficient, especially in delivering meals on time and at the perfect temperature. Aladdin’s air curtain refrigerators are a game-changer in this area. They’re efficient, keeping temperatures steady and making meal prep smooth, ensuring a seamless meal service and meal delivery systems in hospitals. 

Limitations of Generic Equipment in Streamlining Tray Assembly

Standard commercial kitchen refrigerators work well for storing food over a long period. Yet, they're not designed to streamline tray assembly. 

Think about walk-in refrigerators—they're spacious and ideal for storing ingredients and meals. But imagine the slow process of making trays by continuously going in and out for food. What's really needed is a specialized fridge that makes tray assembly effortless and fast while maintaining the right temperature.

This is where Aladdin's hospital refrigerators shine. Hospitals must maintain prepared food at precise cold temperatures until serving, emphasizing easy access and smooth meal tray assembly. Standard commercial gear alone doesn't best serve this unique setting.

Aladdin's specialized fridges are purpose-built and designed to expedite meal tray prep. These fridges keep food at just the right temperature while allowing workers to plate patient meals swiftly. Aladdin's equipment is crucial in efficiently assembling and quickly delivering patient trays.

Air Curtain Refrigerators: The Revolution in Refrigerated Meal Equipment

An air curtain refrigerator (sometimes called an air screen refrigerator) is one of the most convenient solutions for efficient meal tray assembly. Like a regular fridge, they keep food cool. But when it's time to put meals together, the door stays open for easy access to chilled items. This makes it quick and easy for workers to get the food they need without worrying about it getting warm.

Aladdin’s air curtain refrigerators boast top-of-the-line features purpose built for meal tray assembly, including customizable shelving options, precise temperature control, and a streamlined assembly design for seamless meal preparation. 

Room for 10 Trays for Maximum Space

Say goodbye to unused, inaccessible spaces and welcome a configuration that prioritizes practicality and usability for seamless organization and storage within healthcare kitchens. Our design maximizes functionality with ample space between trays, ensuring full utilization of all ten slots without wasting room or creating spaces that are too tight.

Multi-Directional Airflow Technology

The multi-directional airflow in our air curtain fridge generates a cold air barrier that allows the door to stay open during meal prep. This airflow design blocks hot air while maintaining the fridge’s ideal temperature, ensuring food safety. During open-door operation, it maintains average food temperatures of 41°F or lower for 90 minutes. This streamlines workflow without compromising refrigeration, offering convenient accessibility during tray assembly while preserving optimal storage conditions. 

Easy-to-Read Exterior Digital Thermometer

The easy-to-read exterior thermometer allows quick and precise temperature checks without opening the door. The digital display eliminates guesswork with clear numbers. This ensures that staff can easily confirm that the fridge is maintaining a safe temperature, boosting precision and confidence in food safety. 

User-Friendly Interface and Touchscreen Controls

The user-friendly touchscreen operation simplifies temperature adjustments, mode selections, and other configurations, putting precise control at the users’ fingertips. Its intuitive design ensures easy navigation without a steep learning curve, allowing for quick adaptation and efficient management of the refrigerator’s functionalities. 

App Connects via Bluetooth for Additional Control

A Bluetooth-enabled controller and app provide enhanced control and convenience. The intuitive controller, with a digital display and defrost cycles, connects seamlessly to the mobile app via Bluetooth. This connection allows live parameter adjustments, alarm settings, and data export, for precise monitoring and flexible management of storage conditions. 

Exportable Air Temperature Data for HACCP Reporting

Track temperatures for safety rules and streamline HACCP reporting by downloading air temperature data to Excel. This simplifies documentation to ensure compliance with safety standards. Quickly access and export this data for more straightforward reporting and prompt action to maintain ideal storage conditions for safe food handling. 

Easy to Use

Change the door to open in different directions, fitting wherever needed. The tray slides have two positions for your trays — flat or slanted. The sliding door models are great for saving space. They move smoothly along rails beside the fridge, allowing multiple units to be placed close together. Plus, handles make moving the fridge around a breeze. With a 7-foot cord and plug, there’s plenty of reach for setting up wherever you want. 

Easy to Clean

Our fridges are designed for easy cleaning with removable tray slides and interior panels. The front louvered panel can be removed without any extra tools, granting clear access for condenser oil cleaning and servicing the compressor and electrical wiring. Enjoy hassle-free maintenance, with swift and thorough cleaning without specialized tools.
