ROLLER BLIND MEANS LOWER ENERGY BILLS AND FRESHER PRODUCTS
FROM LARGE RETAIL CHAINS TO SMALL LOCAL STORES

AiFO’s mechanical roller blinds are easy to install, save energy, and reduce operating costs of open refrigerated display cases. Designed for both new and existing equipment.

Why choose AiFO isothermal blinds?

  • Cut energy costs by up to 30% – thanks to low-emissivity AI FOIL + PE material, which significantly reduces heat exchange;
  • Extend the lifespan of refrigeration units – less frequent and shorter compressor cycles reduce component wear and extend equipment life;
  • Less waste, more profit – stable temperature and fewer fluctuations help keep products fresh for longer, especially important during the upcoming summer season;
  • Aesthetic appeal meets functionality – effectively reduces the risk of condensation thanks to a perforated material that promotes air circulation;
  • Perfect fit for any unit – custom-made blinds with fabric widths from 550 to 2000 mm and lengths up to 2000 mm;
  • One blind, multiple mounting options – universal mounting system fits different equipment types, regardless of angle or construction, saving space and maximizing versatility;
  • Maximum functionality with minimal effort – modern self-retracting mechanism ensures smooth and silent operation, while the locking function allows stopping the blind at any position.
