TEFCOLD Module — PREMIUM Import for Pro Refrigeration Equipment
The only PrestaShop module that turns a raw TEFCOLD CSV into product pages that make people want to buy — A→G energy label, 5 themed sections, 4 native PDFs, supplier CTA
PrestaShop 1.7 → 9.x · 959 products · 4 brands · 12 PREMIUM ingredients · CRON 24/7
Are you launching a professional refrigeration equipment store? You work with TEFCOLD A/S, the leading Danish manufacturer in commercial cold (refrigerated cabinets, beverage display cases, upright and chest freezers, gastronorm tables, modular cold rooms, ice cream display cases…) and you spend your days copying out 959 technical sheets from their B2B portal, downloading the 4 PDFs of each product, composing descriptions from 67 technical parameters, and manually integrating European energy labels?
With the TEFCOLD PrestaShop refrigeration equipment import module, everything becomes automatic — and VISUALLY PREMIUM. You enter the TEFCOLD CSV URL, you click "Start import", and the module creates your 959 PrestaShop products with an ULTRA RICH description in 12 visual ingredients that make the difference against the competition.
🏆 This module is not like the others
Most import modules dump a description as a block of text, paste parameters into a raw table, and leave your pages indistinguishable from those of your 50 competitors using the same catalogue.
The wp_tefcold module is different: it transforms each product into a visual commercial sheet with colored energy label, XXL capacities, themed illustrated sections, native PDFs, replacement banner, supplier CTA block. Your pages make people want to buy — not just compare prices.

🎨 The 12 PREMIUM ingredients of every product page
Each imported product does not get a long-winded description. It gets a composition of modular visual blocks that you enable/disable as you wish from the BO. Here are the 12 ingredients:
🏷️
1. Identity banner
Brand + reference + equipment type in large type, visible at first glance.
🔁
2. "Replaces the older model" banner
Automatically detects range replacements and reassures loyal customers.
✨
3. Key points as visual cards
Turns the raw bullet list into icon cards (LED, GN1/1, Casters…).
⚡
4. A→G energy label
Official EU colored arrow (green→red) with highlighting + EPREL link.
📐
5-9. The 5 themed sections
Measurements · Design · Cooling System · Power & Energy · Dimensions. Just like the official site.
📦
10. Visual XXL capacities
Volume, bottles, GN displayed in colored blocks visible at a glance.
🎯
11. "Ideal for…" block
Detects use cases (bars, restaurants, bakeries…) and highlights them.
📄
12. PDF cards + Attachments
4 PDFs (datasheet, manual, EPREL, technical drawing) as clickable cards + Downloads tab.
Plus 2 footer blocks: ♻️ Transparent WEEE eco-fee (FR legal obligation) and 📞 Supplier CTA (clickable phone + warranty + expertise) to turn visitors into calls.

🗂️ The 6 auto-created TEFCOLD categories
The module automatically creates 6 main categories under your root, then files the sub-categories extracted from the CATEGORYTEXT1 field (concatenated string parsed intelligently). The 7th "News" category is filtered by default (marketing announcements, not permanent products).
- ❄️ Coolers: beverage cabinets, bottle display cases, blast chillers
- 🧊 Freezers: chests, upright cabinets, ultra-low -86°C freezers
- 🍽️ Gastro: GN1/1 refrigerated tables, saladettes, pizza tables
- 🚪 Refrigerated cabinets: positive, negative, dual-temperature mixed
- 🏗️ Cold rooms: modular, sandwich panels, complete kit delivered on pallet
- 🍦 Ice cream display cases: tubs, scooping displays, vertical display cases
🛠️ Module technical architecture
| Source file format |
UTF-8 CSV with separator ; (308 columns), streaming parsing via fgetcsv |
| Product architecture |
1 CSV product = 1 PrestaShop product (no combinations — equipment without variants) |
| Title composition |
PRODUCT field + PRODUCTNAME field → e.g. "Beverage Cooler CEV425CP 2 LED" |
| 2-tier stock |
ON_STOCK local takes priority; if depleted → fallback to ON_STOCK_REMOTE remote warehouse with auto-extended delay |
| Downloaded media |
5 photo views (IMGURL1/2/3/5/6) + 4 PDFs (data_sheet, user_manual, energy_label, spare_parts) + energy label image |
| Local storage |
All media copied into the module's /views/img/ and /views/pdf/ → independence from the TEFCOLD CDN |
| Categorization |
Parsing of the concatenated CATEGORYTEXT1 field via the closed list of the 7 TEFCOLD parents |
| Hidden B2B parameters |
Auto filter on ContainerLoad40ft, gtin, TypeOfDirectSalesRefrigeration, DirectSalesProductFamily |
| VAT & margins |
6 pre-configured B2B margin tiers (180% small price → 22% large equipment) + native PrestaShop TaxRulesGroup selector |
| PHP/PS compatibility |
PHP 7.2 → 8.4 · PrestaShop 1.7.x → 9.x (tested on 1.7.8, 8.0, 8.1, 9.0) |

Version, statistics, WebPoint support, exclusive features
⚡ Focus: European A→G energy label in official EU colors
Strong selling point + EU regulatory obligation.
The module automatically generates the colored A → G arrow in the official European Commission colors:
A B C D E F G
+ Clickable EPREL link to the official European database of energy labels (product-specific EPREL number). + kWh/24h consumption highlighted. No manual image to download.
♻️ Focus: Transparent WEEE eco-fee (FR legal obligation)
902 of the 959 TEFCOLD products are subject to WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment).
The French AGEC law (Anti-Waste for a Circular Economy, February 2020) requires displaying the eco-fee transparently for this type of product. Penalty: administrative fine of up to €15,000 per non-compliant product. The module automatically creates a dedicated block in the description with amount + brief explanation → legal compliance ensured effortlessly.
📦 Focus: Smart 2-tier stock management
| Scenario |
Module behavior |
| Local stock > 0 |
Quantity = local stock · Delay = "Delivered in 48h" |
| Local stock = 0 AND remote stock > 0 |
Quantity = remote stock · Delay = "Delivered in 7-10 days" (auto-extended) |
| Local stock = 0 AND remote stock = 0 |
Quantity = 0 · If "auto-disable" switch enabled → product disabled. Otherwise → product visible with backorder. |

🤔 Frequent objections (and answers)
"My competitors already have the TEFCOLD catalogue, what does this module change?"
They have the same raw data. This module turns it into visual commercial pages with colored energy label, themed sections, XXL capacities, supplier CTA. Yours make people want to buy; theirs make them compare prices. That is exactly the difference between selling and just being listed.
"959 products, won't that hurt my Google performance?"
Quite the opposite. Each page receives a unique description composed from the 67 technical parameters, the energy label, and use cases. No duplicate content. + automatic generation of 5-8 tags per product (brand, energy class, refrigerant, defrost, finish) that interlink your categories. Stronger internal SEO score.
"How do I get the TEFCOLD CSV URL?"
Access is reserved for TEFCOLD partner resellers. You request your CSV URL from your TEFCOLD sales rep (or via their B2B portal headlessapi.tefcold.com). The CSV format is universal: 308 columns, separator ;, UTF-8 encoding.
"My host is limited, will the import crash?"
The module manages Apache time-budgets: if an execution approaches the timeout, it saves its state and restarts in the background via asynchronous CRON. No more 5xx errors. You can also limit to 10/50 products for a quick test.
"What if TEFCOLD changes the CSV structure?"
The module addresses columns by their name (not by index). If TEFCOLD adds columns, the module continues to work. If a column disappears, the error is logged cleanly and the import continues with the other products. Mapping updates included for 12 months.
"I am on PrestaShop 1.7 / 8 / 9, does it work everywhere?"
Yes. Module tested on PrestaShop 1.7.8, 8.0, 8.1, 9.0. PHP compatibility 7.2 → 8.4. No override. No separate AdminController. All UI is in getContent() and AJAX via ajax.php at the module root — 100% compliant with modern PS best practices.
"What happens if I uninstall?"
BO uninstallation preserves your products, categories and logs (for safety). To erase everything: use the Tools → Selective deletion tab before uninstalling. Dedicated checkboxes: products, empty categories, brands (double confirm), PDF attachments, logs.
"Why mono-language (FR only) and not multilingual?"
The TEFCOLD CSV is available in several languages from the supplier (separate URLs per language). To add another language to your shop, you have 2 options: (a) install a 2nd instance of the module on your multilingual PrestaShop, or (b) we create a dedicated multilingual version for you. Contact WebPoint.
