In many cases, storing goods at a warehouse or manufacturing facility requires more than just placing items in packs and pallets until they are needed. Cold storage warehouse installation is often a required solution to manage the large-scale distribution and storage of perishable or vulnerable items. At Cold-Rite, we specialise in providing cold storage warehouse solutions across greater Sydney without disrupting your daily operations.
When is Cold Storage Needed?
To maintain the quality and safety of each product stored, certain environmental requirements must be followed. Required conditions can range from maintaining cool temperatures and humidity control to commercial freezers. Many people associate cold storage with the food and beverage industry, however, there are many other applications for cold storage solutions, such as:
- Pharmaceuticals and vaccines
- Medical products
- Chemicals
- Laboratory samples
- Live plants
- Film
- Cosmetics
- Wax products
- Artwork
- Mortuaries and body storage
No matter the applications and specific requirements, experienced technicians like Cold-Rite can convert warehousing and storage facilities into cold storage efficiently and discretely, with minimal interruption to core operations.
Considerations for Cold Storage Warehousing
Cold storage solutions allow for more reliable logistics servicing, allowing you to better protect any products that arrive at a warehouse and placed in your care. Advanced warehouse management software (WMS) and mobile scanners simplify the process of receiving, inspecting, weighing, labelling and storing goods according to specified storage requirements. Your cold storage warehouse installation can be custom designed to adhere to overall cold storage rules as well as unique specifications for the items stored on your premises.
Monitoring the Cold Storage Environment
Many clients depend upon quality service from a distribution facility, making it crucial to understand their cold storage requirements. Before building your cold storage solution, it’s essential to know what items are to be stored and distributed and at what temperature. Is it likely that new products will be added in the future, or will the same inventory be stored at your facility on a regular basis?
Once requirements have been established and compliance standards are defined, you can determine the appropriate cold storage installation and monitoring processes. An advanced WMS should work with your internal monitoring systems to provide accurate reporting. A WMS software that helps you meet all food safety and pharmaceutical grade requirements is recommended for both warehouses and manufacturers.
