Environment & Sustainability
Environmental Responsibility – We take our obligation to do everything we can to preserve our environment very seriously. Our efforts go beyond the legal requirements for sustainable, ecological development. For example, Gastro-Cool is considered a pioneer in the industry when it comes to using environmentally friendly refrigerants, a fact we are proud of. As one of the first companies, we adopted the use of Isobutane (R600a)as a refrigerant and consistently use it for the production of all cooling devices. Isobutane is a natural gas with high environmental compatibility, and its use is an important part of our environmentally conscious approach. Refurbishing (the reconditioning of used appliances) and the professional, environmentally responsible disposal of old devices are additional important services that reflect Gastro-Cool’s ecological orientation. It is also a matter of course for us to fulfill our obligation to take back and recycle transport packaging in accordance with the Packaging Ordinance (VerpackV). Our disposal service provider is Noventiz GmbH, and we are listed under customer number 0022101. Here is a link to our current certificate.
Gastro-Cool plant 1.000 trees!
Gastro-Cool, in partnership with "Unternehmen Wald," has planted 1,000 trees as part of its ongoing effort to give back to the environment. Some company employees traveled to a nearby forest near Wuppertal to take part in the planting, equipped with shovels and spades.
Under the supervision of the landowner, the planting of the first trees began. The project, named Gastro-Forest, was initiated, and spearheaded by former CEO Christian Machers. The new CEO, Niklas Sluyter, plans to continue the project. "I really like the idea of reforestation and think it is important to give back something to the environment," said Mr. Sluyter. "I fully support the initiative." This is just the beginning for Gastro-Cool.
The company aims to create more forested areas and expand the Gastro-Forest each year. The goal is to plant a tree for every product sold. While this may seem ambitious, Gastro-Cool is committed to making it happen. For further information on reforestation, visit www.wald.de.

The German company Gastro-Cool has developed and launched a particularly environmentally conscious advertising cooler. The ECO STAR combines high performance with sustainable energy savings.
The GCDC400 ECO STAR has an argon-filled double glass door, and due to its low thermal conductivity, the inert gas insulates the interior of the cooler perfectly. Cooling loss and energy consumption are measurably reduced, with a clear view of the cooled contents.
The "green cooler" from Gastro-Cool scores in terms of ecobalance with its environmentally friendly R600a coolant. The company's new flagship product also uses an extremely economical LED lighting system in addition to an energy-efficient compressor and air ventilator. The self-closing door with magnetic seal ensures short opening times and little cold escapes from the inside of the cooler. High-quality workmanship, a lock for the cooler as well as an affordable sales price round off the features of the promotionally effective and distinctly cool ECO STAR "environmental protector".
With its new cooling solution, Gastro-Cool, nationally and internationally one of the leading suppliers of efficient and cost-effective cooling systems, achieves yet another ambitious corporate objective: the dynamic company with headquarters in Willich, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, has declared ecological and social commitment to be the top priorities of its individual cooling solutions. Following this principle, Gastro-Cool, in cooperation with the "Stiftung Unternehmen Wald" for forest conservation, plants one tree for each cooler sold. However, it is not only the environment that benefits when replacing an older cooler with a modern energy saver: depending on the model used, annual electricity costs of more than 100 euros can quickly be saved.
