Outdoor Chiller Cold Rooms – Weymouth Quay

Challange

Dorset Council redeveloped the quay to improve facilities for the local fishing industry, requiring outdoor cold rooms where fishermen could store freshly caught fish for collection by resellers and distributors. MTCSS was challenged with designing and installing cold rooms that could withstand the quay’s extreme winds and harsh conditions.

Solution

MTCSS designed and installed a multi-compartment of five temperature-controlled chiller rooms on the quay, tailored to the needs of fishermen and resellers while withstanding extreme coastal conditions.

Chiller Rooms:

  • Welfare Area: 4950 mm × 5250 mm × 3150 mm
  • Fish Box Store: 6100 mm × 3640 mm × 3150 mm
  • Catch Store: 4950 mm × 5250 mm × 3150 mm
  • Bait Store: 4950 mm × 5250 mm × 3150 mm
  • Ice Store: 5100 mm × 5250 mm × 3150 mm (Including 2 Ziegra Ice Makers)

All rooms were built with 150 mm Kingspan insulated panels, white food-safe internal finishes, XL Forte external finishes, fibreglass resin roofs, floorless designs, J&E Hall condensing units, Guntner evaporators and 3 hinged, 2 sliding durable doors, ensuring efficiency, hygiene, and resilience in harsh weather conditions.

 

Implementation

  • Design of Multi-compartment chiller rooms.
  • Full installation.
  • Completed in 4 weeks.

Outcome

Dorset Council is now able to efficiently support the day-to-day needs of local fishermen, providing secure cold storage that makes the transfer of fresh fish to resellers easier, safer, and more reliable. The new facilities ensure the integrity and safety of the catch while streamlining the distribution process.
