From ambient temperature to -40 °C. Designed, installed, and controlled.
We design, supply, and install complete industrial refrigeration systems: cold rooms, freezing systems, fruit ripening, refrigeration doors, and insulating panels.
Comprehensive refrigeration. From design to remote control.
At STAR, through our Technofruits brand, we design, calculate, supply, and install industrial and commercial refrigeration systems for the storage, freezing, and postharvest treatment of perishable products. We work with ammonia (NH3), freon, and water/glycol refrigerants, and install everything from cold rooms with PIR insulating panels to blast freezer systems and rapid cooling tunnels. Every system includes control and monitoring software for variables such as temperature, relative humidity, ethylene, CO2, O2, and airflow. We also independently fabricate and supply refrigeration doors and PIR/PUR sandwich panels. We operate in North, Central, and South America.
Refrigeration doors and insulating panels.
We fabricate, supply, and install custom refrigeration doors with European technology and PIR/PUR sandwich panels. Available as part of a full project or as a standalone product.
Hinged doors
Hinge doors for medium and low temperature chambers. Compact leaf with injected rigid polyurethane foam, stainless steel frame, hinges with lifting ramps, and perimeter heating resistance. Operate down to -30 °C.
Sliding doors
Manual sliding doors for high-temperature chambers. Insulated leaf with high-pressure polyurethane, stainless steel frame, locking system, and minimal opening traction. Operate down to -5 °C.
Swing doors
Double-spring doors with automatic closing for high-traffic areas: process rooms, supermarkets, industrial kitchens, and clinics. Available in single or double leaf, with oval vision panel and optional bumpers.
Sectional doors
Industrial sectional doors with double-layer PIR sandwich panel (45 kg/m³), EPDM perimeter seal, torsion spring balancing system, and multiple safety devices. For factories, logistics, and loading/unloading areas.
Rapid freezer doors
Rapid doors with anti-freeze heating cables, self-repairing design after impacts, and hermetic sealing. Minimize temperature variations and chilled air loss in freezer rooms with frequent traffic.
PIR/PUR sandwich panel
Double-layer insulating panels with high-density rigid PIR/PUR foam (40 kg/m³ ±5), thermal conductivity of 0.0225 W/mK, 100% CFC-free. Available for roof, wall, and facade in lacquered steel, stainless steel AISI 304, or PVC Plastisol finishes.
What we do in industrial refrigeration.
Four disciplines. From thermal calculation to commissioning with remote monitoring.
Cold rooms and cold storage
6 capabilities
Industrial cold rooms
We design and install industrial cold rooms (0 °C to +20 °C) with high-quality insulating panels, process-sized evaporators, and automated control systems for stable-temperature storage of perishable products.
Industrial freezer rooms
We install freezer rooms operating from -40 °C to +5 °C, built with insulated walls, floors, and ceilings, high-capacity refrigeration equipment, and precise temperature control for long-term frozen product storage.
Blast freezer — rapid freezing
We supply and install blast freezer systems (-22 °C to +5 °C) that reduce food temperature within hours through high-power refrigeration and forced air circulation, preserving product quality, texture, and nutrients.
Rapid cooling tunnel
We design and install rapid cooling tunnels (5 °C to +20 °C) to reduce the temperature of fruits and vegetables immediately after harvest, extending shelf life and limiting chilling injuries.
Two-stage storage
We install two-stage storage systems (-20 °C to +5 °C) that allow both freezing and cold storage within the same controlled space, optimizing infrastructure utilization.
PIR/PUR sandwich panels
We supply and install PIR/PUR sandwich panels for the roof, walls, and facades of cold rooms, freezer rooms, warehouses, and industrial buildings. Panels manufactured to local and international standards with high-density foam and low thermal conductivity.
Refrigeration and cooling systems
4 capabilities
Ammonia (NH3) refrigeration
We design and install industrial ammonia refrigeration systems, including piping, compression equipment, and controls, complying with the safety protocols required for handling this refrigerant.
Freon and water/glycol refrigeration
We install freon and water/glycol circuit refrigeration systems for commercial and industrial applications where controlled cooling is required without the use of ammonia.
Chillers and cooling towers
We supply and install chillers (water coolers) and cooling towers for chilled water supply to industrial processes, sizing each unit to the plant's thermal load.
Automated control panels
We design and install Blue Cold automated control panels for cold room management: controlled circuit, power protection, HP/LP refrigerant control, compressor protection, and electronic controller with air, water, or electric defrost.
Ripening and postharvest treatment
4 capabilities
Fruit ripening systems
We design and install controlled ripening chambers for climacteric fruits — avocado, banana, and mango — with temperature, relative humidity, and atmosphere control to achieve uniform and predictable ripening.
Citrus and pineapple degreening
We install degreening systems for citrus and pineapple, controlling ethylene exposure under precise temperature and humidity conditions to achieve the required commercial color and ripeness.
Control and variable monitoring software
We develop and install control software for real-time monitoring of temperature, relative humidity, ethylene, CO2, O2, and airflow in cold rooms and ripening chambers, with remote management capability.
Controlled atmosphere systems
We install complementary equipment for atmosphere control in cold rooms: relative humidity systems, ethylene and CO2 absorbers, and industrial dehumidifiers adapted to each type of stored product.
Air conditioning, ventilation, and extraction
2 capabilities
VRF air conditioning systems
We design and install VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) air conditioning systems for the conditioning of industrial, commercial, and administrative spaces with independent zone control.
Industrial ventilation and extraction
We install ventilation and extraction systems for industrial buildings, process areas, and confined spaces, ensuring air renewal and contaminant control in line with each plant's operating conditions.
