MD S.p.A., one of the fastest-growing Italian supermarket chains decided to accelerate the conversion of its in-store refrigeration systems to a long-term and eco-efficient solution. Following a comprehensive analysis, the retailer is implementing low GWP Solstice® L40X (R-455A) refrigerant at its San Giovanni in Persiceto supermarket near Bologna – and the results look promising.
