Traulsen’s story began when Harry Traulsen started manufacturing refrigeration units in Queens, New York, primarily for bakeries and delicatessens. His expertise in the design and production of durable refrigeration units soon set the company apart. The 1940s saw Traulsen expanding into the broader foodservice market, designing refrigerators that met the specific needs of chefs and restaurant owners. This dedication to customized solutions became a hallmark of the brand, earning it a reputation for excellence early on.

In the decades that followed, Traulsen introduced several industry innovations, including the development of reach-in refrigerators and freezers that prioritized energy efficiency without sacrificing performance. In 1982, Traulsen became a part of ITW Food Equipment Group, a global leader in the foodservice industry, which enabled the company to expand its reach and resources. Throughout its history, Traulsen’s mission has remained consistent: to create high-quality, durable refrigeration solutions that exceed the expectations of professionals in the foodservice industry.
