Go BackHosted by the West of Scotland Branch of the HCA in the twin-venue Hilton Glasgow and Glasgow Marriott, the Leadership & Development Forum & Exhibition 2015 takes place next week on the 16th and 17th April.
Entitled Food Matters, delegates will be considering the matters that constitute Hospital Catering and/or influence its impact on those to whom it is delivered.
For ACE Refrigeration, it is an opportunity to showcase its involvement in the design, supply and installation of state of the art cook freeze production facilities at Inverclyde Royal Hospital and the Royal Alexandria Hospital in Paisley.
This project has enabled the catering teams to produce in excess of 6,000 quality meals each day, supplying 14 hospitals for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGG&C).
The blast freezers used were to play a central role in this facility; so as part of the specification process, blast freezers from all the major manufacturers were tested by NHSGG&C.
Due to our independence and worldwide sourcing ability, the blast freezers sourced by ACE gave by far the best results; producing 500kg of frozen produce on 2 trolleys per hour versus 250g from the other manufacturers, thus ensuring best value for money and production efficiency.
The installation of 15 separate cold rooms/production areas also gives the facility over 1,100 cubic metres of refrigerated space.

At this year’s event, we will be demonstrating cooling capacity with a blast chiller, as well as showcasing our temperature monitoring technology and energy efficiency measures, all designed to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

On Saturday 18th April, we will also be exhibiting at this year’s Scottish Association of Meat Wholesalers Annual Conference at the Marriot Hotel in Glasgow.
As always, a range of top speakers will be discussing “New Horizons” reflecting on recent developments hoping to lead to a more sustainable and prosperous red meat industry in Scotland.
ACE Refrigeration is proud to continue its sponsorship of the SAMW Annual Conference and Dinner for the third year running.
The organisation represents the red meat industry views and interests of its member companies, working closely with partner organisations, Government Ministers and officials in Edinburgh, London and Brussels to promote the efficient operation of Scotland’s meat sector and lobby for necessary improvements.
