What tropicalised cooling is and why it makes all the difference in JIMO equipment

August 11, 2025

When it comes to performance in refrigeration equipment, there's one technical detail that can change everything: tropicalised cold.

In particularly demanding environments, where there is intense heat, high humidity and frequent openings, the reliability of equipment depends on its ability to maintain a constant and stable temperature.

This is precisely where tropicalised cooling comes into play. This advanced technology allows the equipment to withstand the toughest conditions, guaranteeing effective and continuous performance.

JIMO incorporates tropicalised cooling into much of its equipment, ensuring that even in the most challenging environments, the quality of cooling is never compromised.

What is tropicalised cold?

“Tropicalised cold” is the term used for refrigeration equipment designed to work properly in environments with high ambient temperatures, usually up to +43 °C.

These units have reinforced components, better ventilation, superior insulation and optimised compressors.

This means that even on very hot days, in poorly ventilated spaces or with frequent openings, the equipment maintains its performance without compromising the preservation of the products inside.

Why does JIMO equipment make a difference?

Many of JIMO's equipment, such as refrigerated cabinets, display cases and worktops, include tropicalised versions.

This type of equipment is ideal for

  • Spaces where the ambient temperature often exceeds 30 °C
  • Environments with intensive use and constant door openings
  • Places with poor ventilation, sun exposure or accumulated heat (such as kitchens without direct exhaust)
  • Situations in which thermal stability is critical to avoid losses or breaks in the cold chain

When to opt for tropicalised equipment?

Even in Portugal, there are many spaces where this type of solution makes all the difference.

From north to south, especially in the warmer months, the use of tropicalised equipment can mean a lot:

  • Less risk of failure
  • Reduction of stock losses
  • Greater stability for audits and quality control

Tropicalised cooling is more than just a technical feature, it's an intelligent response to the real demands of everyday working life.
