Customer challenge

With the growing concern of climate change, M&S have implemented Plan A, their mission to become a net-zero business by 2040 - 10 years earlier than the target set by the UK government. M&S have identified zero emissions property as one of their immediate priority areas for transformation in their roadmap towards this target. Transforming the efficiency of refrigerated estates plays a huge role in reducing the emissions of a store overall, which is where Aerofoil’s supermarket refrigeration solutions come in.

Following independent laboratory trials, Aerofoils demonstrated they significantly outperform alternative shelf-edge technology.

As a result, M&S deployed three of Aerofoil’s new supermarket energy technologies to its stores.
