Refrigeration products

Pay less for your ice cubes. Fridges and freezers are the hardest working appliances in the kitchen - they are on the go 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so if your fridge or freezer isn't energy efficient it's costing more to run and is responsible for a higher amount of carbon dioxide.

The savings

Energy Saving Recommended fridges and fridge freezers use over 60% less energy than a typical old one. This will give savings of up to £39 and 140 kilograms of CO 2 a year for a fridge freezer and £13 and 48 kilograms for a fridge.

How the savings add up

If everyone in the UK upgraded their fridges and freezers to Energy Saving Recommended ones, energy wastage would be cut by two thirds, saving nearly £800 million and the equivalent CO 2 emissions of 500,000 homes.
