The agriculture industry farms and distributes produce and food products across the nation. Farming involves multiple processes to ensure they offer supermarkets and customers the highest quality products. With the high turnaround of produce, ensuring all machinery and storage solutions are of the highest standard is highly important to maintain efficient practices. Cold rooms are important part of these processes.
MTCSS has a multitude of experience designing and building cold rooms for companies in the agriculture industry, working particularly closely with companies in the Midlands, but also across the rest of the UK. We understand the importance of optimal walk in cold rooms to store and process agricultural produce, from fruit and vegetables to meat and dairy products.
Utilising temperature controlled rooms in your farming and agriculture processes can ensure the longevity and quality of your products. But how do MTCSS design cold rooms for businesses within the agricultural industry?
What will your cold room be used for?
MTCSS will work with you to understand what your cold room is being used for, whether it’s to store farmed products or process produce. The important things to consider when designing your cold room include:
• what products the cold room is being used to store or process
• the temperature range required – positive temperatures for chiller cold rooms and negative temperatures for freezer cold rooms
• the volume of products entering and leaving the cold room daily
• how your processes fit in with use of the cold room
Our team design will design your cold room to suit your needs and your business’s individual requirements. Whether it’s a walk in chiller or freezer, our experts will design and build a cold room to enhance the day to day workings of your agricultural business.
What products are used to build your agricultural cold room?
Farming and agricultural businesses harvest and processes food products, meaning the cold room and the products to build it which need to be food safe, otherwise there may be a the risk of contamination to your produce.
To ensure your cold room is suitable for this application we use:
• food safe insulated panels
• easy to clean hygienic products, from doors and panels to seals and ancillaries
• sealants to improve cleanliness
• cold room flooring selected dependent on the level of hygiene required
We consider the elements used to build your cold room dependent on the level of insulation required, the temperature range, the level of cleaning required and how you intend to use it.
