Glacier Door Systems (Pty) Ltd

Glacier Door systems was founded in 1997 as a manufacturer of Glass Doors for refrigerated applications and is today Africa’s supplier of choice for supermarket display doors and merchandising systems.

Glacier Glass Doors are manufactured to world-class standards incorporating aluminium and PVC extrusions that are cut on state-of-the art equipment to ensure consistent quality with minimal tolerance between production batches. The frames and doors are specifically designed for maximum durability and appearance. For medium temperature applications (Chillers) Glacier uses a low emissivity toughened safety glass. This glass has as a specifically formulated transparent coating to improve thermal insulation and reduce condensation. For low temperature applications (Freezers) Glacier uses a front glass heating system ensuring maximum product visibility.

All Glass Door frames are supplied standard with energy efficient LED lighting
