Innovation Meets Sustainability

RCU Technology

This envy of the industry comes standard in every True product. Our patented Reverse Condensing Fan Motor reduces energy consumption and holds the coolest temperatures – all while removing excess debris from the interior and surface of the condensing coil to increase its lifetime.

Lower Energy Cost

True’s vertically integrated higher-quality components mean less failure rate, shorter run times, and lower energy consumption. Coupled with the industry’s in-class warranty means lower operating costs for you and an overall lifetime cost for your commercial refrigeration.

Sustainable Foam

Foamed in place, CFC-free, polyurethane, high-density insulation that provides unparalleled strength, rigidity, and increase to an already industry-exceeding insulation factor, with zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and zero global warming potential (GWP).
