What is cold storage construction?

Though it can take many forms, Cold Storage is the process of building temperature-controlled environments. In common industry parlance, Cold Storage facilities are known as either coolers, freezers, cold rooms, or blast freezers. These Cold Storage facilities vary in shape and size, all depending on the end-user’s storage needs, and can be as small as a 400 sq ft enclosure to a massive 1 million sq ft warehouse or even more all dedicated to Cold Storage. The most common temperature ranges for Cold Storage facilities are between minus 20 degrees below zero to an ambient 70 degrees, but applications often call for specs outside of these ranges. Advances in Cold Storage construction material, equipment, and processes even have the structures soaring to new heights, with 40’ clear height projects more common place than ever before providing even more of the highly prized Cold Storage space increasingly in demand. 


At Clarion, we design and construct all types of Cold Storage facilities each with specific temperature-controlled environments customized to meet our client’s Cold Storage and budgetary needs. The idea can start as simply as a sheet of paper with rudimentary dimensions and product specific environmental needs and be developed into a precise environmentally controlled storage facility that meets your needs. As a turn key general contractor, Clarion Construction, Inc., will handle the process from start to finish, ground-up or expansion.


Give Clarion a call. We look forward to working with you on any of your current or future Cold Storage projects.
