Retrofit of Full Vision Glass Doors in Spar Supermarket in Belgium
In 2024, Cisaplast collaborated with Linum on an ambitious retrofit project at the Spar supermarket in Belgium.
This project involved the installation of full vision glass doors for the cold stores and the fitting of Linum branded advanced shelving systems, including shelves and compartments.
The doors installed, the GLAM CR (Cold Room) model, represent the latest innovation in refrigerated display cabinets, offering a perfect combination of functionality, transparency and energy efficiency.
The Project
Spar supermarket, a benchmark for quality and innovation in retail in Belgium, aimed to improve the visibility of its refrigerated products and optimise the energy efficiency of its cold stores.
Cisaplast provided a complete solution by installing full vision glass doors that enhance the customer shopping experience, increasing the attractiveness and sale of the products inside the refrigerator.
Installed Product
Model: GLAM CR (Cold Room)
Features:
- Full Vision: All-glass doors without profiles for maximum product visibility.
- Advanced Materials: PVC and aluminium composite profiles for an optimal mix of strength and lightness.
- Transparent Spacer: Fully transparent glass spacer for superior aesthetics.
- Automatic Closure: Automatic closure system to maintain a constant temperature and reduce energy consumption.
- Magnetic Seal: Magnetic gasket for efficient thermal insulation.
Challenges and Solutions
The main objective of the project was to improve the visibility of refrigerated products without compromising energy efficiency.
The GLAM CR doors met these requirements by offering crystal-clear visibility thanks to their all-glass, profile-free construction.
The automatic closure and magnetic gasket also helped maintain an optimal temperature inside the cold rooms while reducing energy costs.
Results and Benefits
The installation of the GLAM CR full vision glass doors has brought numerous benefits to the Spar supermarket:
- Improved Visibility: Thanks to the full vision structure, refrigerated products are fully visible, improving the shopping experience and increasing the likelihood of sales.
- Optimised Energy Efficiency: The insulation features of the doors, combined with automatic closing and magnetic seals, have significantly reduced the energy consumption of the cold stores.
- Refined Aesthetics: GLAM CR doors enhance the luxurious appearance of the supermarket, creating a more attractive environment for customers.
- Ease of Maintenance: High-quality materials and door design facilitate maintenance, reducing long-term operating costs.
