IGLOO INNOVA 140.140 Confectionery Showcase with Retractable Glass

A refrigerated confectionery showcase that keeps delicate pastries, cakes and desserts at precise serving temperatures while displaying them under bright, even lighting. The cooling system circulates chilled air around the interior, maintaining a steady climate between +2 °C and +15 °C. This range protects the texture and flavour of cream-based items, chocolate decorations and fruit glazes without freezing them, so they remain ready to serve at their best. The refrigerant R290 is used for its efficiency and lower environmental impact, circulating through an internal cooling aggregate that automatically defrosts to prevent ice build-up and keep the airflow unobstructed.

The showcase opens with a retractable front glass panel that slides smoothly out of the way, giving staff quick access to the entire display without lifting or swinging doors. An electromagnetic lock secures the panel when closed, ensuring the cold air stays inside and the presentation remains unbroken. Once the glass is retracted, the operator loads or rearranges the confectionery on the adjustable glass shelves, which can be set at different heights and angles to create an attractive tiered display. The bottom shelf is stainless steel, providing a sturdy base for heavier items or additional storage. The back of the unit has sliding glass doors, allowing access from the rear for restocking or cleaning without disturbing the front presentation.

To use the showcase, the operator plugs it into a 230 V, 50 Hz supply and sets the desired temperature on the electronic controller. The digital display shows the current interior temperature, and an alarm sounds if the condenser becomes blocked or the fan stops working. The cooling system starts automatically, circulating chilled air through the dynamic cooling cycle. The interior LED lighting, positioned along the top and front frame, illuminates the confectionery evenly, highlighting colours and details. The wooden top worktop and external panels are available in a range of finishes from the IGLOO pattern book, allowing the showcase to match the kitchen's decor. The kick plinth and housing base are stainless steel, providing durability and easy cleaning.

The construction combines coated steel for the housing, combined glass with argon filling for the external panels, and solid wood for the worktop and decorative elements. The glass shelves rest on a painted internal frame, which is also available in different colours to coordinate with the exterior. The showcase can be used as a standalone unit or combined with other INNOVA modules to create a larger, continuous display. The power rating of 11.2 kWh per 24 hours indicates the energy required to maintain the set temperature, which is typical for a unit of this size and cooling capacity. The footprint of 1400 mm wide, 850 mm deep and 1400 mm high determines the space it occupies on the shop floor, fitting into most professional pastry counters or retail displays.

Cleaning involves wiping the glass panels and shelves with a damp cloth and mild detergent, avoiding abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surfaces. The stainless steel bottom shelf and kick plinth can be cleaned with standard stainless steel cleaners to maintain their appearance. The wooden worktop and panels should be wiped with a damp cloth and dried immediately to prevent water damage. The electronic temperature controller and alarm system require no regular maintenance beyond checking that the display is functioning and the alarm sounds when tested. The automatic defrost cycle and condenser vaporisation keep the cooling system running efficiently without manual intervention.

The INNOVA 140.140 is part of IGLOO's pastry display series, designed specifically for confectionery and dessert presentation in professional kitchens, patisseries and retail environments.
