Description

“Celsius” is a modular refrigeration system for food storage. Through a rental service, consumers can use it on a long-term or temporary basis. Celsius consists of several interconnected components that can be placed together or in different locations. Thanks to a central cooling system, the individual components can largely dispense with active cooling technology and partially use, depending on the location, the external ambient temperature. The cooling temperature and humidity of each unit can be controlled individually via an app. The energy-efficient system can be used in a variety of ways in homes, offices, shops, pharmacies and restaurants. It typically replaces very large, inflexible fridges and freezers that consume a lot of energy and cannot adapt to the changing needs of users.
