About Us.
The Company:
The Satellite Cooling Company was formed to design, manufacture and deliver the best possible solution to the food service industry for the challenge of maintaining cold food temperatures where food is openly displayed. The Satellite Cooling Company is quality driven and seeks complete customer satisfaction. We insist on using only the finest suppliers available for parts and service who seek the same goals of optimal customer satisfaction.
In his 26 years in the food service industry, Chef John Warren repeatedly saw a need that went unanswered: How do we keep this beautiful buffet cold and looking delicious? After years of testing, John found the answer and formed the Satellite Cooling Company to provide the food service industry with his unique product. Anywhere that cold food is served, the Satellite Cooling System is rapidly becoming a necessity.
As the company moved forward, Satellite Cooling customers began using the Satellite equipment for many different uses. They were anything from sushi making and display to ice cream mix-ins. There were more and more demands for Satellite Cooling Company to design products using the Satellite Cooling patented technology to address the needs of these new ideas coming from chefs, managers and store owners.
Today Satellite Cooling Company has a product design and testing laboratory in Mundelein Il., where the Frostation system originated and where many unique food service solutions are being created.
The Founder:
Chef John Warren has 30 years of food service experience, beginning in 1978. An innovator himself, John has combined his years of experience and dozens of prototypes to create the patented Satellite Cooling and Frostation systems, applying years of experimentation and testing on his own. John has brought to market his revolutionary Satellite Cooling System and Frostation ice cream mix-in to help caterers, chefs, ice cream franchisees and managers worldwide with safe food holding and professional ice cream service.
The Frostation experience
Until now, there have been very few practical options for hosting mix-in ice cream events that actually work. Caterers, chefs, ice cream shops all over have similar problems. They all know that when they set up the mix-in ice cream station, no matter how large or how small, there is no good way to keep it consistently cold while maintaining a professional look. Dry ice is not consistent, frozen granite has to warm up eventually and so on.
Today, with Satellite Cooling’s patented Frostation ice cream mix-in station, caterers, chefs, ice cream shops all over may now host ice cream mix-in stations for longer periods of time, while maintaining the integrity of their presentation of their ice cream.

The Satellite Cooling System Concept:
Until now, there have been very few practical options for maintaining cold food temperatures on temporary buffets and food displays. Caterers, chefs and supermarket managers all over have similar problems. They all know that when they set up a buffet or a cold food display, no matter how large or how small, there is no good way to keep it consistently cold while maintaining a fresh look. Ice does not work on trays; bowls spin in sloppy ice water when customers attempt to serve themselves.
Food temperatures are affected by room temperature, food volume, customer presence and melting. Chefs and servers will simply put cold foods out on a table in serving pieces and try to switch product in and out before unsafe temperatures are reached and pray for good timing. Many food service operators, frustrated by a lack of alternatives, end up throwing out perfectly good food. This dangerous game ends when something very wrong eventually gets recirculated into the buffet, and the devastating result harms both the customer and the food service facility.
Today, with the patented Satellite Cooling System, food service managers may now display cold foods in their natural form for longer periods of time, while maintaining the integrity of their presentation and the safety of their food. The Department of Health adheres to a strict requirement of constant food temperature ranges for foods served on buffets. the Satellite Cooling System offers the peace of mind you get from knowing your cold food is staying cold at a regulated, measurable, constant temperature. With its NSF approval, you know the Satellite Cooling System has passed the most rigorous tests and performs at a standard you can be proud of.

The revolutionary Satellite Cooling System solves a problem confronting every chef in the world: how to keep buffet appetizers, entrees and desserts safely and perfectly cold for hours at an even, regulated temperature. Connecting a glycol chiller to flexible beverage lines on quick disconnect couplings and running them in a series to buffet display bowls and trays, the patented Satellite Cooling System is every chef's dream. The bowl and tray modules are designed to fit existing temporary buffet set-ups, the kind typically displayed by large caterers, hotel chains, cruise lines, banquet halls and private clubs.
This innovative solution may be set up virtually anywhere and is completely mobile.
