Container Cold Rooms: Portable and Ready to Use
A container cold room is a complete, portable cold store built inside a 20 ft or 40 ft shipping container. It is not tied to a fixed location: it can be moved wherever it is needed and run the full cooling process on site.
Why Choose a Container Cold Room?
- Fast start-up: Delivered as a complete unit. Set it down, connect the power and run.
- Portable: Can be moved to a new site by truck or ship.
- Robust: The steel container shell protects the cold room in harsh conditions.
- No separate building needed: You do not need to construct a separate cold store building.
- Uninterrupted operation: Generator back-up keeps it running on sites without reliable mains power.
