3 Fresh ideas, innovative actions. 03

4 Innovation it s more than just a word. Here s what really counts: Seeing things with fresh eyes. Relating product development and design to the customer s requirements. Striking out on new paths with the benefit of experience, and taking the long term view. Since 1984, cool it has been manufacturing door systems for chillrooms, freezers, and hygienic chambers. Our experience has continued to grow all the time: we are always developing new products, and adding further improvements to what has been found good in the past. Our aim in this is the same as it always has been to offer the customer top quality products and individually customised solutions. cool it now supplies a wide range of products, carefully designed to meet the customer s individual requirements. The cool it brand: the best materials, yielding high quality, along with optimised manufacturing processes, and all at a reasonable price. cool it is the market leader in Ger-many in this field today, and is also one of the biggest manufacturers in Europe. 04

5 Quality will always be well received. Values going beyond mere technology: leading to confidence and customer satisfaction. These are not just the result of excellent products. The whole concept behind it has to be right. A cool it door is bound to be the right choice. This is not just on account of the high quality of the product. Our friendly and flexible customer services are also a factor. With the very best advice, reliable service and a consistent adherence to agreed dates, you can be sure that our high quality technology will meet your needs in practice. And there s another special feature with cool it: the customer s preferences actually determine the manufacturing process. So cool it doors are always individually designed products. That is innovation, as cool it understands the matter. 05

6 No innovation without inspiration. Recognising the need, and developing the ideas to match from the adaptation of the product to a given structural design, right through to the pressures of daily use. A product fulfils the requirements of its context and the purpose of its use best when it is individually customised. It goes without saying that this is a matter of efficiency.the relation between the outlay on development and the usefulness that results must be correct. But at the same time cool it relies on flexibility in the production process, researches into new technologies and makes use of them for new solutions. So with every product our expertise and originality continue to grow. As witnessed by our fire-proof door for chillrooms and freezers, which has received the seal of approval of the Berlin Institut für Bautechnik [Building Technology Institute], our fast operating deep-freeze door for refrigeration logistics or the Easy Push quick release latch. These are solutions that set new standards. 06

7 Where everyone does their best, only the best will be created. The character of a company is shown not just in the what, but above all in the how in a streamlined production process, which can respond to the customer s wishes in a dynamic and flexible way. Problem solution is something that everybody talks about. cool it makes sure that problems do not arise in the first place on the basis of a homogenous combination of expertise, human efficiency and smart technology. All our employees enjoy what they do, and put their ability to work with a full sense of individual responsibility. The result is a modern and precise flow of production, which is closely linked to distribution. On this basis, cool it has created a flexible production process which is absolutely in line with the needs of the market and will continue to prove its effectiveness in future. 07

8 Letters and seals confirm things that we take for granted. Standards establish the bare minimum requirements. There s nothing special about adhering to them. What counts is to go beyond them. No doubt about it cool it is fully certified in terms of DIN EN ISO 9001 and has been ever since All automatic doors are subjected to a TÜV 1 prototype test, and carry the GS mark. The products live up to EU directives and the hygienic requirements of the Alimentarius code, the Foodstuffs Hygiene Directive 2 and the Foodstuffs and Commodities Statute 3. But what distinguishes cool it from other firms is its instinct for the coming thing. So cool it was one of the first companies to switch its production over to environmentally friendly, CFC-free, water-driven polyurethane foam. 1 Technischer Überwachungsverein: Technical Monitoring Authority. 2 Lebensmittelhygiene-Verordnung (LMHV). 3 Lebensmittel- und Bedarfsgegenständegesetz (LMBG). 08

9 The measure of things is found at the point where people work together towards a common goal. The most valuable asset of a company is its employees. And the most important task is to find the best application for their specialised knowledge so as to achieve the best possible results in a friendly working environment. Flexibility in all phases of the work means that cool it can deliver rapidly, and what it delivers is just what is required. So it is an easy matter, too, to harness the energies of our employees afresh for every new project. Every new job is a challenge, and constitutes the fuel for a dynamic cooperative effort, mutual confidence in working together and an exceptionally well developed team spirit. On these foundations, cool it has created a positive corporate ethos where everyone is prepared to do their creative best for the customer. 09

10 When you find you don t have to worry about anything, then you know you have picked the right partner. Beyond price: the confidence that everything is under control. The confidence that you will be able to delegate responsibility so as to have the freedom to get on with the actual job. Door systems are cool it s special field. And so also is everything that goes with them. Because the contexts in which cool it doors are used and their purposes are so varied, there are bound to be a great many issues that need to be clarified in connection with every new project. Every customer needs to be given individual advice, in a way that goes beyond the mere development of products. So the standard delivery of all cool it products includes comprehensive customer service. This begins with the very first phone call, and extends from punctual delivery and individually adapted installation right through to maintenance at regular intervals. Some would call this a complete all-round solution. For cool it, this is just a standard. 10
