NANDO’S CASE STUDY: KEEPING THE TASTE OF YOUR SAUCES


Pallet covers against freezing.


Nando’s is a South African multinational fast food chain that specialises in flame-grilled peri-peri style chicken. Founded in Johannesburg in 1987, Nando’s operates over 1,200 outlets in 30 countries. Their logo depicts the Rooster of Barcelos, one of the most common symbols of Portugal.

Following the customer’s request, while providing information about the functionality of Eceplast’s Thermal Protectors in a cold environment, a conditioning test of pallets in a cold room at -20 ° C was agreed. The customer currently ships sauces to Canada using reefer containers. Instead, he would like to use standard containers, properly protecting the products transported to avoid getting frozen.

The test main goal is to understand if, the thermal protection offered by our TP PP0014, is enough not to freeze the sauces delivered to Canada which remain still for 6-7 days awaiting customs clearance at temperatures reaching up -20 °C.
