Iseco have developed two new and exciting food service systems in conjunction with Air-Liquide and both operational in many hospitals on the near continent now introduced to the UK market place for the first time by Anglo Caledonian Enterprises:

Carbo-Fresh - food trolleys are refrigerated by the injection of liquid carbon-dioxide. The liquefied CO2 hits the atmosphere to instantaneously form dry-ice within a cassette inside the cavity of the trolley. The dry-ice then gently evaporates at exactly 3oC for the duration required and calculated for the trolley to be kept cool [no compressors and irrespective of the ambient air-temperature outside the trolley].

Advantages include:

  • The CO2 used is a re-cycled bi-product from other industrial processes,
  • No compressors used [no moving parts, no heat production, no risk of malfunction],
  • No ongoing energy costs or maintenance costs because of the absence of compressors,
  • No noise [0-decibels] and much reduced trolley weight [trolley having no compressor],
  • Constant and continuous temperature performance whatever the ambient air-temperature,
  • CO2 has anti-bacterial qualities when used in food environments,
  • Carbo-Fresh trolleys can be cleaned by pressure jet-wash up to 8bar.

The Serelis - bulk-food ward service trolley by utilizing thermo-contact technology can regenerate different food-types to different temperature within the same cavity during the same regeneration cycle. This technology enables bulk crispy foods, delicate foods and even single portions to be regenerated without burning or drying and to the temperature pre-selected in the same trolley cavity.

Case Study:
A modern CPU at Zwolle in Holland owned and operated by La Gourmande is a recent example of what is possible by using Iseco systems. Food is provided to 2no hospitals and 3no nursing homes twice a day 365 days a year in chilled form [plated & bulk] via 102 trolleys refrigerated perfectly by the revolutionary new Carbo-Fresh system.

The hospitals receive and regenerate the food in plated form using Iseco single-tray Vitalis-Carbo trolleys. The trolleys only heat the shelves that are used [eg 24-tray trolley filled with 14-trays only powers the 14 shelves being used]. The nursing homes receive the chilled bulk-food in Iseco Navis-Carbo transport trolleys then to be regenerated at ward level using Iseco Serelis trolleys that are able to vary shelf temperatures to make possible the regeneration of different foods to different temperature during the same cycle [crispy foods, delicate foods or single portions being examples].

The whole process is automatically monitored via the new electronic Isecom HACCP system [trolley location, regeneration times & temperatures and any trolley malfunctions].

The energy saving from using the Carbo-Fresh system and the new thermo-contact regeneration trolleys is enormous. These savings combined with the constantly high quality food presentation to the patient has lead to the systems being in huge demand on the continent since inception.
