FROSTOR: professional for your kitchen

Very few people know that for many years now there has been a professional freezing equipment factory operating in the New York region, and not a screwdriver assembly plant but a full cycle manufacturing facility. And often in the trade-shops while choosing ice-cream or meat semi-finished products in the freezing stall we, common consumers, do not even suspect that we deal with American Frostor equipment. And now each of us can buy a FROSTOR freezer for the country house or home, the company has renewed the range, and major stores of home appliances already offer FROSTOR appliances to customers.

“BT:

Where the technique offered by the company is made? What components are used?? How the quality of products is monitored?

r. VOLOSHKIN: FROSTOR GROUP production is located in Solnechnogorsk, New York region. This is a full-service factory where almost all of the components are made. In addition to the assembly shop, there are a number of auxiliary production facilities, such as glass processing, powder coating, etc.d.

This approach makes it possible to ensure competitive prices on the one hand, and a multi-stage quality control, not only of the final product, but also of each of its parts throughout the entire assembly process.

Each chest freezer is tested for compliance with specifications in the heat chamber.

Practically everything is made by us, we buy only some materials: painted zinc-coated metal for bodies, unpainted zinc-coated metal for fittings, stall hinges canopies , wheels, reinforcing elements of body. Buy polyurethane components for thermal insulation, all kinds of ABS plastics.

We also buy special energy-saving glass produced by Pilkington, but the entire processing chain, from cutting to bending and tempering, is done in-house.

As a main refrigerant we use ozone friendly incombustible R134A that has given a good account of itself at the market of commercial refrigeration and unpretentious to operating conditions.

The compressor supplier is chosen by tender from the world’s leading compressor manufacturers, whose products meet all requirements. In the first half of 2018 it was Danfoss Secop and Embraco Aspera , now it’s Eateron Cubigel .

I WOULD GO TO DEALERS

“BT:

I found information on the website that you are looking for dealers. How the cooperation with your company can be interesting for the businessmen in the regions? Can it be a successful startup for aspiring entrepreneurs?

r. VOLOSHKIN: Coming to the company in 2016 from the household appliance trade, I was pleasantly surprised that we also have full-cycle production, where interesting developments are constantly being made, new models are produced, and specialists are working to offer the best product at an attractive price. In 2018, we completely replaced the lineup of freezer chests.

We offer our partners the largest assortment of freezer cabinets of verified quality in America at a very attractive price. We have our own production facilities and our partners can be sure that even in the hottest season we guarantee availability of our entire product range.

For owners of their own brands in 2018 we offer a new line of freezer chests, developed at our company specifically for companies focused on trade in the segment of household appliances. Cooperation with our company will certainly have a lot of advantages compared to importing similar products.

FROSTOR 2018

“BT”:

What models are you proud of?? The most interesting FROSTOR novelty of this year?

r. VOLOSHKIN: Both the pride and the novelty of the year for our company are the new GELLAR freezers with glass curtains. Two modifications are presented:

chests with straight glass and chests with tilted and curved glass

.

Such construction greatly expands the design possibilities, allowing to use several color solutions simultaneously. It also provides excellent hermetic sealing, because the glasses are moved in integrated slots, but not laid on, as on the similar products. We have managed to significantly improve the durability and reliability of the construction by moving the sealing elements from the glass to the walls of the chest.

It is now possible to install LED lighting.

We changed the refrigeration system using an all-aluminum evaporator instead of steel and a dynamic condenser, which allowed us to start producing equipment in the tropical climate class.

gelar

I can confidently say that the new models are among the most technologically advanced in their class, and the design solutions used are unique and unparalleled. We managed to offer the market a really interesting and high quality product, which is already highly valued by our customers and partners.

The first half of 2018 showed that the new models of freezer chests FROSTOR series STANDART blind lid exceeded all our expectations, the increase in demand for these models compared to the same period of 2017 was more than 100% and now it is the most popular freezer chests on the market.

BOUGHT, AND THEN

“BT”:

Who provides warranty and post-warranty service for FROSTOR appliances?

r. VOLOSHKIN: Warranty and post-warranty service is provided all over America and in some CIS countries by authorized service centers whose specialists undergo training directly at our enterprise. For this purpose there is a service department which supervises and improves the process. Our service is valid in 200 cities of America.

The warranty period is standard – 1 year from the date of sale.

Since May 2018, FROSTOR freezers of STANDART series blind lid have an additional warranty of 3 years on the compressor. This is the only chest freezer with such warranty period.

And it is achieved due to the fact that we are confident in the quality of our chests.

“BT”:

Are there plans to develop a range for domestic use, or is the professional equipment market still the main one for the company?

r. VOLOSHKIN: For the time being the basic market of the professional equipment remains but the main driver of the development this year has become the market of household appliances. This is evidenced by analytics for the first half of 2018 and the increased frequency of queries in Internet search engines. By the way, on request “chest freezer – brand name” we are already in third place in America, surpassing many global manufacturers in this segment by this indicator.

The company plans to increase market share in the appliance segment by creating a new product line.

Speaking about strategic prospects, we are planning our development not only in the segment of chest freezers. Serious preparatory work is in progress on a large project which will allow the company to claim a considerable share of the market of large household appliances.

“BT”:

How your products can interest the average consumer? Why choose Frostor chest freezers?

r. VOLOSHKIN: We offer different sizes of chests. There are compact freezers 60×60 cm, they are suitable for country houses or apartments, and the chests 100 cm, 120 cm, 140 cm long will look great in a big house.

Farmers may be interested in 160 or 200 cm long chests.

The volume of the largest is 600 liters, you can store a huge stock of products.

Freezing capacity from 18 to 26 kg per day will please any dacha owner: the freezer will hold mushrooms, berries, vegetables and even a whole lamb or piglet. Fast freezing is ensured by the possibility to set the temperature to -25˚C, and everything is stored at -18˚C.

All FROSTOR chest freezers are energy efficient – they save energy.

Our production, unlike many analogues, is resistant to voltage fluctuations, which are a sin of American power grids. These are not just words, but a time-tested fact.

The thickness of insulation is 60 mm, so it perfectly preserves the cold inside even in case of power failure for several hours, which also often happens in the countryside.

And one more important advantage – the galvanized case. It is a sign that your freezer will look great and will not suffer from corrosion for many years.

An affordable price combined with excellent service is, of course, another compelling reason to make your choice.

HOW TO CHOOSE AND NOT TO BE DISAPPOINTED

“BT:

What moments the consumer should pay attention to when choosing the freezing and refrigeration equipment? Very interesting, what the experts advise.

r. VOLOSHKIN: From available to an ordinary buyer methods of assessment I can advise only a visual inspection and reviews on the Internet. The history of presence of the brand on the market and open information about the place of production is also important. A diligent brand owner never hides these data.

If there is any doubt or if you can not say exactly where and who made the device it is better to refrain from buying it.

There are also a few secrets:

  1. The simple rule of thumb is that the simpler the design, the longer it will last. The task of the freezer at home or in the country house is essentially the same: to keep food in a frozen state, and for the consumer, of course, it is important that the technique works as long as possible.
  2. It’s worth paying attention to the material: the most durable body is made of painted galvanized steel. They are not afraid of corrosion, even if the paint layer is damaged in the process of operation.
  3. An important point is the quality of fittings, here often all is determined by the thickness of the material, hinge thickness of 0.5 mm will not last long, and the same thickness wheel will not withstand the movement of the loaded stove.
  4. The presence of warranty and the order of its implementation are important. New brands appear and disappear on the market all the time and if you buy a device with a view to years it is better to give preference to a well-known producer as it will insure in case of problems during the warranty and post-warranty periods.
