TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Panasonic Corporation and Panasonic Eco Solutions Commercial Equipment Systems Co.,Ltd. participated in the "49th Supermarket Trade Show 2015" held from February 10 to 12, 2015 at Tokyo Big Sight. The entire line-up of new products and solutions for supermarkets and convenience stores, which were introduced on January 29, 2015, made their first public appearance.
For nearly 50 years, Panasonic has developed a relationship of trust with customers that engage in food retail services and as a distributor of cold chain products, continued to contribute to the security and safety in the food retail business. In recent years, Panasonic has offered comprehensive retail solutions, rather than single products, with excellent connectivity and energy performance. Panasonic continues to offer very unique, eco-conscious solutions, aspiring to become the best partner for its customers.
New Cold Chain Product Highlights
CFC-free Freezer System
This product
is equipped with technology that controls the delivery pressure of
refrigerants, is lighter and more compact, and a model constructed with
cost reduction in mind while having less construction constraints. With
a high demand in the market, high pressure conveyance units (with the
same pressure deliverance control as current models) for freezers and
refrigerators are installed on 2 horsepower models recommended for small
storefronts, have also been released.
Condensing Unit Showcases for Supermarkets "EV
Series"
A "New Temperature Control System," less
vulnerable to atmosphere changes, keeps food at a level temperature.
This enables food quality management by maintaining proper temperatures,
and prevents the loss of energy by overcooling. This series, in part to
the newly developed CO2 exclusive refrigerator, will expand the line-up
from 272 models to 651 models. Furthermore, by equipping LED lighting,
improving cooling efficiency and eco-conscious glass doors, the
showcases are expected to save up to 30% of energy. 5 different types of
LED lights, each suitable for different foods, are available for
selection.
Store Controller
The "Store
Controller" can connect and centrally control a wide range of store
equipment from showcases, freezers, air conditioning, to lighting. New
products will regulate store equipment including CFC-free freezers,
supporting the eco-consciousness of stores. In addition, by introducing
a 7-inch color LCD touch panel, both the visibility and overall
operability have improved. Moreover, connecting to Panasonic's cloud
service will enable customers to remotely monitor and control the
equipment.
Remote Data Service for Stores "S-cubo"
For
stores in the food retail business, maintaining and managing food
temperature and the wide range of equipment, cost reduction on
electricity and gas, and prompt repair and restoration of equipment
failures are some of the challenges for effective store operation. In
facing these challenges, "Remote Data Service for Stores 'S-cubo'"
provides functions necessary for store operation by connecting to
Panasonic's cloud service through the internet and managing related
data. "S-cubo" saves energy by making temperature and energy consumption
visible. It also quickly notifies customers of temperature or equipment
anomalies, and contributes to food safety and security. From store
development to maintenance, repair, to renovation, with superior
equipment management and information sharing, the S-cubo will help
customers make effective use of their assets.
Panasonic will not only offer customers refrigerator/freezer systems, but also comprehensive proposals that combine a wide range of Panasonic products and develop solutions together with customers. Furthermore, Panasonic would like to introduce solutions developed in Japan to people all around the world.
