Merchandising Requirements
Use a consistent display strategy in each case .
Hussmann recommends the use of flat bottomed
aluminum or high density plastic trays as the ideal
merchandising display method.
When displaying product on flat trays directly on the deck
surface (ideal display method), layer product single or
double high keeping product within the load limits (page
35). This promotes even cooling from both the spiral
deck coil below and gravity coil above, and allows for
less refrigeration power, lower dehydration and increased
product life.

Rotate product every several hours. Bottom layer should
be rotated to the top and flipped. This ensures even
cooling, dehydration and color maintenance.
As demonstrated below, each layer of product has a slight
increase in internal product temperature the higher it is
stacked. It is very important that each layer make direct
contact with the layer below it. With conductive cooling,
heat will flow from the warmer surface to the cooler surface
until both are nearly at the same temperature.
Deck Temperature (DT)
* DT will vary based on store conditions and case set
points.
