Each year, over 48 million people become ill from foodborn illnesses. When food spends too much time in the Danger Zone between 40ºF and 140ºF, dangerous bacteria can rapidly multiply on our food sources and ingredients. This is why commercial refrigeration is so important and why it's so critical for foodservice operations to maintain working refrigeration systems at all times.

Last month, we experienced some of the latest F&B innovations at The NAFEM Show 2019. Of all those innovations, the Perlick booth had some of our favorites. From large format cocktail ice to no-sweat beer towers that you can completely customize, take a brief, interactive tour.

Compressors are what keep our foods cold in walk-in freezers and refrigerators. They're what keep our wine or dry-aging rooms at the right temperatures. They're the only lifeline Florida foodservice operators have between properly storing food products and the extreme Florida heat that can damage those products.
