Every ingredient deserves the perfect climate. A deep knowledge of the science of food preservation has allowed us to optimise temperature and humidity across our luxury food care solutions — so the care you take when you select premium ingredients is matched in the home with perfect preservation.
Market–fresh greens such as lettuce, rocket and broccoli benefit from high humidity to maintain their natural moisture and stop them from drying out.
At a temperature just short of freezing, fresh meats, poultry and fish retain their vital freshness for longer, and remain ready to cook without the need to defrost.
While wine ages best when cellared at 10°C to 13°C, different styles of wine have optimal serving temperatures for the full expression of flavour and aroma.
Perfect cooking begins with perfect cooling. Since 1934, we've been studying and testing the effects of temperature and humidity on preservation, freshness and flavour. View our food care stories to see the potential of Variable Temperature Zones and climate modes — and create an appliance solution to best suit your needs.
One temperature doesn't fit every ingredient — and even subtle changes in temperature and humidity can affect the freshness and flavour of food. Variable Temperature Zones are independently controlled climates that evolve refrigeration beyond cooling and freezing. Each zone can be optimised with modes, for a nuanced cooling solution that can enhance everyday convenience or provide safe, longer–term preservation options.
“Food shapes our values — and vice versa. We are what we eat, and we eat what we are, whether that means organically farmed, paddock to plate, nose–to–tail, vegan, vegetarian, flexitarian or simply recognising the importance of a balanced diet. Respect for ingredients, health and nutritional benefits, and the importance of avoiding waste are all trends that are increasingly important and interlinked.”
