ModoShelf™: A Game-Changer in Modular Refrigeration Shelving

ModoShelf is an innovative, modular shelving system designed to meet the unique challenges of modern retail environments. Its lightweight, customizable design enhances product displays while maximizing merchandising space. Built with convenience in mind, ModoShelf can be quickly assembled by a single person, and its tile-based construction allows for fast disassembly and effortless cleaning, making it an ideal solution for fresh areas, commercial kitchens, and grocery store coolers.

“At siffron, innovation and efficiency are at the core of everything we do,” said Robb Northrup, Director of Marketing and Communications at siffron. “Our collaboration with Microban, a global leader in antimicrobial technology, strengthens our commitment to smart retail solutions by enhancing ModoShelf with antimicrobial protection, helping shelving surfaces stay cleaner with less maintenance.”

The Microban® Advantage: Built-In Antimicrobial Protection

Microban® antimicrobial technology is seamlessly integrated into ModoShelf during manufacturing, providing continuous, 24/7 surface protection against bacterial and fungal growth. This built-in technology delivers several key benefits for modular commercial refrigeration shelving:

• Inhibits Microbial Growth for a Cleaner Surface
  ModoShelf is constantly exposed to moisture and food debris, creating conditions that allow damaging bacteria, mold, and mildew to flourish. With Microban technology embedded in the shelving materials, ModoShelf inhibits damaging microbial growth, promoting a cleaner surface between cleanings.

• Extends the Life of the Shelf & Product Integrity
  By reducing bacterial and mold growth, ModoShelf helps maintain fresher storage conditions, benefiting grocery stores, restaurants, and food retailers by reducing the need to replace shelving and helping to prevent the buildup of stains and odors.
• Lowers Cleaning & Maintenance Costs
  Antimicrobial protection means shelving stays cleaner between deep cleanings and can lead to reduced labor costs and lower cleaning product expenses. This is particularly valuable in high-traffic food storage areas and if cleaning lapses occur.
• Provides Long-Lasting Protection
  Unlike temporary surface treatments, Microban technology is built into ModoShelf’s materials, ensuring it won’t wash off or wear away over time. The result? Durable, long-lasting antimicrobial performance throughout the shelving’s lifespan.

A Smarter, Cleaner Future for Retail Shelving

With ModoShelf™ and built-in Microban® antimicrobial protection, siffron® delivers a next-generation shelving solution that improves commercial refrigeration's cleanliness, efficiency, and durability. By reducing microbial growth, enhancing freshness, and prolonging the useful life of the shelf, ModoShelf is a smart investment for any retailer looking to optimize their fresh food storage.
