Ristorante Luce (Berna, CH).
Wine Display Case
In this restaurant, a panoramic wine display case (with 4 glass sides) with 3 temperature zones, model “WineLine C”, has been installed, serving as a “scenic” dividing wall display between 2 areas.
Inside, stainless steel and plexiglass shelving has been installed for vertical and diagonal bottle display as requested by the client, along with custom-made fullglass double-glazed hinged doors featuring a glossy gold-tinted painted edge.
An additional value of this installation is the inclusion of a custom-sized “Havana” module, plug-in for cigars, with cedar wood drawers, amber LED lighting, and a glass hinged door with wooden frame.

Pastry and Chocolate
Pasticceria Chiara (Verona, IT).
Refrigerated display case for pastry shop
This refrigerated display case for pastry shop has been installed in a location where the client’s requirement was to maintain the displayed products in optimal conditions, while also having a functional counter with a light and essential design.
We therefore proposed the “Easy” model display case with humidity control (for chocolate and pralines) channeled to the “Tecno Alta” model basin (specific for fresh pastries) customized in dimensions and with extra-clear tempered glass castle UV-bonded, with anti-condensation system.

Delicatessen and Cheese Shops
Maison Lorho (Strasbourg, FR)
Refrigerated deli counter
The request was to create a refined establishment with a WOW effect featuring custom refrigerators with high performance. For this reason, custom display cases were created, specifically designed for proper preservation of both fresh and aged cheeses.
The refrigerated deli counter consists of stainless steel bases with open compartments, special “Zurich 09” model pans and UV-bonded extra-clear glass display cases, all built into white Carrara marble tops with front and side panels fixed in a “monolith” effect.
The back counter was equipped with a line of “Neptune” model wall units with sliding double-glazed doors, matte black painted profiles and shells, and underlying refrigerated cells with drawers and stainless steel doors with recessed handles.

Snacks and Sandwiches
Bar alla Stazione (Marostica, IT).
Bar counter with fridge and snack display case
For this project, we were asked to create a custom snack display case that could ensure uniform temperature throughout the entire interior volume with good insulation of the glass case and a neutral upper part for displaying pastries.
The “Manhattan” model perfectly met the requirements as this display case is made of a “box-type” double-glazed case bonded with UV (MG&MD patent), which adds elegance to the fridge element and simultaneously provides low thermal transmittance, effectively preventing condensation on the glass.
To complete the bar furniture, the bar counter with fridge also includes TN Modules (for drinks and food), a Coffee module, and a Cocktail module, all elements entirely made of stainless steel.

Butcher Shops and Fresh Pasta
Macelleria Agnoletto (Bologna, IT).
Refrigerated counters for butcher shops
The Agnoletto & Bignami butcher shop and deli is located in the heart of Bologna, a historic establishment where, in addition to carefully selected meats, customers are offered a wide variety of gourmet delicacies and high-quality, handmade fresh pasta.
For the store renovation, the Client’s needs were to have custom-made “work counters” and refrigerated display counters for butcher shops, designed to be highly efficient and to maintain the prepared products in optimal conditions (considering that two sides of the refrigerated display cases were to be placed facing the street).
Additionally, the request was to maximize the available display space (while avoiding issues such as obstructing internal air circulation and preventing condensation on the glass) and to enhance the presentation of the displayed goods using design-focused glass structures and the integration of dedicated LED lighting.
Supported by an architectural firm that coordinated all the work on behalf of the client, we were able to identify the right solutions. These were developed from a shared analysis of sales objectives and the working habits of Agnoletto. As a result, we proposed custom-made CHICAGO model display cases with a 90° open corner (one with a refrigeration system specifically for meat, the other with a refrigeration system tailored for fresh pasta), a NETTUNO model mural unit with increased depth and an integrated refrigerated storage underneath, a VENERE model wall unit with special dimensions and an enhanced evaporator, and finally, a series of stainless steel elements to complete the furnishings.
After the store’s reopening, the Client evaluated the result very positively. He achieved high product quality standards even after several hours of display (the food maintained its freshness and flavor), presenting it in sleek, minimalist glass display cases that were also highly appreciated by his customers. Furthermore, his work was simplified thanks to the stainless steel accessories placed in appropriate spaces and ergonomically functional counter measurements.
