Foods & Products You Should Be Storing In A Refrigerator
Refrigerators come with different inbuilt advanced technologies these days. In modern homes, sleek and compact yet spacious refrigerators are preferred, which can accommodate more food items than before.
Hafele has introduced freestanding and built-in refrigerators with unique designs, advanced cooling technologies, and food-friendly zones to enhance user experience.
Hafele’s innovative refrigeration comes with active sensors to regulate precise temperatures in each zone. Stable temperatures across the zones help keep the food freshly stored, be it fruits, dairy, or meat, for a longer time.
However, we found a lot of misconceptions among consumers regarding what items can be and cannot be stored in a refrigerator.
Let’s check out the different products that can be stored in a refrigerator.
- Cosmetics and Medicines
Most of you are confused about whether to refrigerate cosmetics or not.
The short answer is, yes, you can refrigerate cosmetics. And not just cosmetics, but you can also store medicines in a fridge.
Hafele’s freestanding and built-in refrigerators come equipped with specific compartments dedicated to these products.
Some cosmetics and medicines are specifically recommended to be stored in a fridge. Especially cosmetics with liquid formulas like nail polishes and other creams should be stored in a fridge to extend their shelf life.
Some more products that are usually stored in a refrigerator are as follows:
- Meat, Fruits, and Veggies
Vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, and seafood need a temperature of 0°C to 2°C to maintain freshness for the longest possible time.
Fruits and vegetables require more moisture to retain their freshness compared to dairy and meat products requiring less humidity.
Hafele’s Freestanding Refrigerators understands this and thus provides you with two isolated zones to create an ideal habitat for these food items by maintaining low temperatures between 0°C to 2°C. These temperatures are maintained with the help of smart sensors.
Even for freshly purchased groceries and eggs, you will find its Quick Cool function, which prepares your refrigerator for storage.
Generally, when you store fresh groceries in the refrigerator, the temperature in the refrigerator fluctuates, and it takes longer to reduce the temperature at the original setting.
However, when you activate the Quick Cool Function, the refrigerator’s temperature is quickly brought down to 2 degrees. It is maintained at the same level till you switch to the regular settings.
- Ice cream, Cold Drinks & Frozen Foods
Most people prefer storing of Ice creams and frozen foods for a longer period and expect a specific temperature to be maintained for the foods throughout their shelf life.
This kind of storage becomes easy as you separate the fridge and freezer zones.
Hafele refrigerators are equipped with Triple Cooling circuits that maintain the temperature in the fridge, freezer, and convertible multizone compartment precisely without impacting the temperature of the other compartments while the temperature is regulated or changed.
There are three independent cooling circuits responsible for this maintenance. These circuits are aligned to the temperature sensors of each compartment and can be independently regulated.
- Dairy Products, Spices, Masala, Dry fruits, Blends, Beverages
Dairy products, such as milk, curd, butter, cheese, and more, are the most perishable food items and need to be stored in a fridge at specific temperatures.
Other food items, too, need a specific temperature range to extend their shelf life.
Hafele’s new premium refrigerators come with the FrescoZoneTM Plus drawer, which creates an ideal habitat for such products by maintaining low temperatures between 0°C and 2°C with the help of smart sensors.
It has humidity slots that adjust and maintain the right level of moisture needed for dairy products.
There is no limit to what you can store in your refrigerator. With ever-changing technologies, the food storage facility has become easy and convenient.
Hafele refrigerators come with separate compartments for specific food items that need ideal refrigeration temperatures, specially designed for India’s humid, coastal, and tropical regions.
