When we think of refrigerators, the first brand that comes to mind is Kelvinator. This American company made such state of the art fridges that its name almost became synonymous with refrigerators. Founded in 1914 in Michigan, United States, it supplied the first household mechanical refrigerators, marketed under the name "Electro-Automatic Refrigerating Company.

Kelvinator got its name from 1st Baron Kelvin William Thomson, who introduced the concept of sub zero. Initially the company offered ice boxes and domestic refrigerators, and later went on to the commercial side. Kelvinator has always lived up to its promise of reliability, whether its in product development, product design, production, marketing, logistics or customer service.

The first refrigerator to have any type of automatic control was introduced by Kelvinator in 1918. In less than a decade, the Kelvinator company gained 80 per cent of market share among electric refrigerators. Over the years, many mergers and take-overs happened and Kelvinator appliances revolutionized refrigerator cooling with cutting edge technology. In the early 50s, it introduced the first ever auto defrost, side-by-side refrigerator, while a decade later, it came out with picture frame fridges that allowed owners to decorate their fridge to match their kitchens.

Kelvinator has maintained its promise of quality and performance. The latest commercial line of food service refrigerators are a fine example of the company’s commitment to professional cooling. All commercial Kelvinator appliances come with a one year warranty and meet NSF/ ANSI 7 standards of food service. This range includes sleek, state of the art stainless steel door refrigerators, upright freezers, chest freezers and glass top display freezers.
