Commercial Open Air Merchandisers and Refrigerators

An open air merchandiser is a refrigerated display unit with no door — instead, an air curtain maintains cold temperatures at the product-facing opening. This allows customers to easily access products without opening a door, improving product visibility, accessibility, and impulse purchases in grocery and convenience store environments.

Air curtain technology circulates a continuous stream of cold air across the open front of the display case, forming an invisible barrier that maintains interior refrigerated temperatures. This keeps products cold and food-safe while allowing open access for customers, eliminating the need for glass doors and reducing customer interaction friction.

The Turbo Air TOM-Series Slim Line horizontal air curtain display cases are available in five sizes: 28", 39", 50", 63", and 75". This range accommodates diverse retail footprints and merchandising needs, from compact convenience stores to full-scale grocery and supermarket installations.
