Cold rooms

Commercial cold rooms and walk-in refrigeration units are insulated structures designed to store larger quantities of food and temperature-sensitive products. Ideal for restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, butcher shops, fishmongers, bakeries, pastry kitchens, delicatessens, canteens and food production facilities, they support storage of raw ingredients, fresh produce, chilled products and frozen foods according to the refrigeration system and operating temperature.

Modular commercial cold rooms may include insulated panels, cold room doors, dedicated flooring, lighting, temperature controllers and refrigeration units. Available configurations can include chiller rooms, freezer rooms and multi-compartment cold rooms. Refrigeration units may be monoblock or remotely installed and must be sized according to internal volume, required temperatures, heat load and environmental conditions.

When choosing a commercial walk-in cold room or freezer, consider internal and external dimensions, usable volume, operating temperature, insulation thickness, door design, flooring and refrigeration unit selection. Product access, handling equipment, ventilation and condensate drainage also matter. Installation must follow manufacturer requirements, while stored food temperatures must be monitored under appropriate HACCP-based procedures.
