What Are the Top 3 Challenges in the Industry?
Temperature Fluctuations
Maintaining a consistent temperature is crucial for cold storage, with ideal levels at 39°F (4°C) for refrigerated and -0.4°F (-18°C) for frozen goods.
Energy Usage
When warmer outside air enters the cold storage facility, the HVAC system must work harder to maintain the desired temperature, leading to increased energy consumption.
Contamination
Traditional pit-style loading docks have gaps around the pit wall, enabling infiltration that makes the unit susceptible to contamination from small animals, insects, rodents, and sunlight.
