Truly different

Right from its early steps, U5 has presented itself in a different way, by stressing the distinguished traits of its refrigerators.

Our offer spans 6 product ranges, with the aim of meeting all customers’ needs. Made in Italy refrigerators stand out thanks to their unique Italian Design. Customers can choose between:

EMOTIONAL refrigerators.

100% manufactured at our Occimiano (AL) plant, designed by Italian agencies specialized in the field of refrigeration.

RATIONAL refrigerators.

Units with clean and essential lines, offered at a competitive cost. These products are mostly produced by U5 partners, i.e. European or Asian companies working according to U5 specifications.

Within the “EMOTIONAL” category, the VINTAGE line is worth mentioning: VIA VENETO and VERTICAL VINTAGE: the charming shapes of the past combined with the reliability of modern technical solutions.

Then there are the GLAMOUR uprights, attractive for the consumer thanks to total internal visibility of the products.

Additionally, we engineered KOBE in two versions: a refined stylistic exercise in the field of meat preservation.

U5 can brand even a single unit, because customer care is a core value to us. Since planet Earth is not a legacy from our ancestors but a loan from our offspring, the carbon footprint has to be neutralized.

We only use natural gasses, both in polyurethane foams and in thermodynamic systems; all thermoformed plastics contain 85% recycled plastics. U5 is also active on the front of INDUSTRY 4.0 connectivity

All U5 refrigerators manufactured in Occimiano can be equipped with ad hoc electronic connectable devices.

Not only can they monitor performance (real-time check of temperature from any device), but in Italy they can also unleash tax benefits. U5, Truly Different.
