CIRQUE DU SOLEIL CASE STUDY – KEEPING FOOD COOL OR FROZEN WITHOUT MAINTENANCE
Objective: benefit from a maintenance-free refrigerator and freezer while saving on fuel.
The Cirque du Soleil is a Canadian artistic entertainment company specializing in contemporary circuses. Its head office is located in Montreal, Quebec, in the St. Michel district.
THE CIRQUE DU SOLEIL’S NEEDS: KEEP COOL WHILE SAVING
The Cirque du Soleil moves a large troupe, from city to city or country to country for each of its shows. The mobile cafeteria must always follow to feed the employees. Cafeteria means kitchen, freezers and refrigerators, even in the summer. The Cirque du Soleil’s cafeteria needs a custom system to ensure good working conditions.
Our Mission: Determine the electric model best suited to moving the cafeteria, while taking into account the practical, effectiveness and economic aspects.
OUR SOLUTION: ADAPT
We adapted a 53-foot trailer’s electrical system. Before, a diesel engine kept the food at the desired temperature. Now, everything is electric and can be easily moved. The cafeteria vehicle now has freezers and refrigerators that are 100% adapted to its specific uses, with low maintenance and more environmentally friendliness.
RESULTS
90% elimination of maintenance costs and 100% cut in fuel consumption
