Exceptional food is an essential part of providing exceptional care.
As we age, the food groups required for a healthy diet are different, with more emphasis on fresh fruit and veg due to their high fiber and vitamin content.
And for those in critical or vulnerable conditions, the need for healthy, high-quality foods is imperative to their recovery and to improve their lifestyle.
Storing large quantities of fresh ingredients can be difficult to manage, leading to poor storage conditions and more food wastage. But not with help from True.
Care sector refrigeration from True has been carefully designed for optimal storage to ensure temperatures are consistent for safer, longer-lasting food storage. As a result, those in your care receive high-quality meals with less waste.

Demands on care catering organizations are growing. They’re expected to deliver better outcomes, for more patients, with less money, making the importance of ingredient quality paramount.
To get the best value out of their ingredients, catering staff must ensure produce is stored at optimum temperatures to keep food fresher for longer. This helps to prolong the life of stock and helps care catering groups maintain high-quality, hygienic standards for those in their care.
True’s range of commercial refrigerators boasts impeccable hold temperatures that keep food products at a food-safe, preserved temperature. Ingredients remain fresh, tasty and highly nutritious for as long as required – allowing care catering organizations to serve nutrient-rich food to patients and residents and maintain government recommended standards.
To do so, True balances hydrocarbon refrigeration systems with the latest in energy-efficient components and True’s own patented technologies through extensive development and testing. Our units maintain consistent, accurate, and safe storage temperatures, even in the most demanding environments.
Historically, care home and hospital food hasn’t been held in the highest regard. Quality, taste, portion size and menu choice have all, at times, come under scrutiny by patients, residents and staff.
But that has changed. There is now more choice than ever and caterers have introduced a higher standard, accommodating for dietary requirements and more variation overall.
However, to maintain these higher standards, kitchens must be efficient and scaled to suit high-pressure services. With people living for much longer, the demand for care services is increasing and catering teams must keep up without sacrificing production. Having prep equipment you can rely on is key to ensuring your staff can keep pace, so meals can be prepared with ease and speed to maintain efficiency and standards.
Through our HC development initiative, True now produce several of the most energy efficient commercial refrigeration products currently available on the market.
For customer convenience, we maintain a high volume inventory of finished products locally, available for quick dispatch and delivery, direct to your premises.
