  • Automatic refrigerant leak detections systems like StoreConnect can alert retailers and contractors to harmful leaks sooner and provide fix confirmation when the problem has been solved

  • Electronic Shelf Labels (through Aperion) help retailers drive savings and eliminate waste on printing paper tags and can be utilized to easily optimize pricing to sell fresh food before its shelf life is reached

  • Millions of dollars in rebates are currently available to retailers across North America for sustainable projects. Hussmann’s Rebate Management Program is a turnkey solution to simplify the process and maximize the incentives for your projects. Our Refrigerant Carbon Credit team manages the process to attain and sell your carbon credits for projects you undertake that have a lower GWP

  • Hussmann Performance Parts is a leading provider of parts to keep your cases running optimally whether they are recent additions to your store or have been around for decades. With services like "Stocking Plans" to keep you stocked on the parts you need before you know it and "Refresh" to breathe new life into old equipment on the inside and out

Some of the recent initiatives we've undertaken include

  • Next-generation manufacturing technologies that help reduce production waste 

  • Smart materials, handheld devices and other documentation solutions that reduce use of natural resources like ink and paper  

  • Continued investments in our manufacturing facilities and their capabilities, including a recent expansion of our labs and manufacturing facilities.  Some of these updates involve LED lights, non-hazardous paint, and new manufacturing equipment - all of which create a more energy efficient manufacturing environment and enable us to produce more sustainable refrigeration systems to be used throughout North America.

Hussmann has 28 locations across North America with over 1200 expert service and installation technicians that work with our subcontractors and customers to create the most efficient and sustainable installations to keep your equipment performing.

Whether it’s installing the latest CO2 rack systems, managing cold storage facilities or working with retailers to quickly find and fix refrigerant leaks, our technicians are trained to extend the life of your equipment and keep it working in optimal conditions.

When it comes to the topic of sustainability, we not only consider new refrigerants but also how to maintain and extend the life of legacy equipment so that it runs most efficiently.

The Green Team is a group of employees at Hussmann focused on volunteer service projects as stewards for the environment. The Green Team has cleaned up trash along roads, held recycling events, and provided opportunities for employees to get engaged in altering workplace policies for more sustainable practices.
