True’s reversing fans keep condenser coils cleaner
A common problem of refrigeration units operating in some kitchen environments is dirt build-up on the condenser, which without regular maintenance, can lead to inefficient operation and eventual compressor failure. To help reduce this, True has designed reversing fan motors for its TGU series of undercounter refrigeration and freezer units.
Peachman overcomes kitchen space issues with mix of True cabinets at Little Plumstead Primary School, Norfolk
When Little Plumstead School in Norfolk was selecting the refrigeration for its new kitchen two key buying criteria were critical: capacity and longevity. “That’s why we went for True,” says Daniel Ridd, project manager with Peachman, the company that installed the kitchen. “Their wide range of model sizes gave us maximum flexibility in terms of capacity. At the same time, they are known for reliability – for us, True’s five year warranty on compressors was the decision clincher.”
A topping choice
Pizza has become a popular menu choice. It’s a versatile option that appeals to a variety of tastes. It can be loaded up for a filling meal or dressed down for a healthy, low cal option. Its success relies on the skilful mixing, matching and fine tuning of the different topping ingredients – but they need to be fresh for the perfect pizza.

True Refrigeration’s TS Series: heavy duty refrigeration for the modern kitchen
Solid, roomy, dependable refrigerators and freezers are the backstop of commercial kitchen storage. But modern open-plan and theatre-cooking design demands that they must look good as well as performing reliably in the heated atmosphere of a busy kitchen.
True’s upright TS Series, recently re-launched into the UK, has a stainless steel exterior front and sides, along with a stainless steel interior, so it looks smart while standing up to heavy use. The positive seal self-closing doors have been factory tested over 1,000,000 times to ensure they are not going to fail.
Supermac’s is Ireland’s largest and fastest-growing fast food chain. Since the first Supermac’s opened its doors in 1978 in Main Street, Ballinasloe, Co. Galway, the company has gone from strength to strength with a turnover well in excess of €82 million and with more than 2500 employees. Now, with over 90 stores throughout Ireland, the company is still expanding.
