MLH Design and manufacture a new Clamp on Glass Freshner with brand illumination. Heineken have taken up this drip tray as part of their Star Serve project where the art of Pouring a perfect Pint of Heineken, is completed in a fresh wet Glass. MLH designed a Red star to be incorporated as the rinsing mechanism to enhance brand visibility of the product.

MLH have been granted an Irish Patent No. S2010/0333 and also a UK Patent No. 2471159 for the invention and protection of the MLH TS11 InnCool Cooler. The first of its kind, it has a single ice bank and subzero fluid bath cooler system, and a defrost heat exchange system. The single bath cooler can ice the tower and chill product from the single bath system. Saving energy as normally two coolers and compressors would be required or a two bath system to perform the same function. The MLH TS11 InnCool Ice Cooler also has a defrost mechanism to avoid the freezing of liquids such as water and detergents that are used to clean the product coils.

After detailed market research MLH are proud to announce the launch to the Irish market place the MINI-SERVE DISPENSER.   The challenge put to us was to develop a small refrigerated dispenser to take 2 x 2 litres of milk (low fat & full fat) for top up at Coffee to go stations located in Garage forecourts, Coffee in Store outlets (Spar, Centra) and small work place canteens / tea stations.   The Mini-serve dispenser is designed to replace the conventional ice pack cooling method found in the conventional milk churn unit currently in operation in trade and used for top up milk.   With a footprint the same size as a milk churn the MINI-SERVE dispenser maintains the temperature of the dispensed product via an adjustable thermostat which regulates the storage temperature of the product storage area and ensures the product is chilled from storage to glass.  Dispense containers are quick and simple to refill straight from the milk carton.   Dispense is by way of push button mounted on the door and a lock out dispense system is incorporated for out of hours usage.   Hygienic stainless steel drip tray and grill is removable for easy cleaning.   The MINI-SERVE dispenser is fitted with a digital display allowing the operator and the customer view the storage temperature of the product being dispensed.

MLH were involved from the start of this project in consultation with Heineken Ireland to create a new spec. different from of the standard European Fountain Tower to suite the Irish Market. This included reducing the height of the tap and the introduction of a tap boss to accept an illuminated tap marker onto the tower, MLH finished off the overall look of the tower by Designing and Manufacturing a bespoke drip tray for the Heineken Fountain Tower.

MLH launched the new Bravanti Post Mix Dispenser to the Irish market to Bewelys in March 2010.  A new generation of post mix dispenser with advanced new technology and stunning good looks, the Bravanti post mix dispenser has as standard accurate concentrate metering by means of two speed peristaltic pumps.

Accurate brix delivery using state of the art digital control (no tools required for setting adjustment) is a standard feature of this machine. Equipped with a large capacity cold heat sink provides high performance cooling especially during peak demand. Cooling of product is not only through the cold heat sink but the concentrate compartment is also refrigerated via frost free cooling ensuring that the product is chilled from storage to glass. The concentrate compartment also has a product running low indicator via a warning LED

After 6 months of designing, testing and perfecting the MLH TS11 InnCool Ice Cooler, MLH supplied the first batch to Diageo Irl in October 2009. MLH have applied for a patent on this single bath dual functionality cooler. The first of its kind, it has a single ice bank and subzero fluid bath cooler system, and a defrost heat exchange system. The single bath cooler can ice the tower and chill product from the single bath system. Saving energy as normally two coolers and compressors would be required or a two bath system to perform the same function. The MLH TS11 InnCool Ice Cooler also has a defrost mechanism to avoid the freezing of liquids such as water and detergents that are used to clean the product coils.

In April 2009 MLH introduced a new subzero fluid to Ireland called InnCool which unlike glycol forms an ice bank reserve at very low minus temperatures. As a result this patented product from Innserve can maintain a water bath temperature at -30C. This can reduce the temperature of a pint in an existing draught system by -2-30 C. MLH have to date supplied over 10,000 Liters of InnCool into trade satisfying the ever increasing demand for colder beer.

Following on from the success of the Harp Eos Ice Tower in NI. Diageo chose the Lotus Ice tower from MLH to launch Budweiser Ice cold on draught in Ireland. Designed by Celli with the tube in tube arrangement, Budweiser Ice cold is the coldest draught pint in the country.

In May 2008 MLH supplied the Coors Light Eos tower, and Mini Me tap Marker and handle, exclusively to Heineken ROI. The Eos tower was designed by Celli and MLH designed an accompanying Chrome handle. Taking the Coors Light Rocky Mountains emblem as the focus of the Design. MLH also designed a smaller version of the Eos tower as a tap marker for the branding of Coors light taps on counter boxes and an elongated version of the Rocky Mountains Tap to complete the set.

In April 2008 MLH supplied the Harp Eos tower exclusively to Diageo NI. Developed by Celli this eye catching Ice tower with tube in tube arrangement has helped to greatly boost sales of Harp with in NI and a further roll out of the Harp Eos Ice was completed in 2009.

In July 2007 MLH supplied the first Heineken Falco Ice towers to Heineken Irl. This tower was designed by Celli exclusively for Heineken Holland with a unique tube in tube arrangement to prevent the beer from freezing in the tower at the minus degree Celsius temperatures required to Ice the tower.
