Agriculture and farming businesses main priority is producing large volumes of high quality produce for its customers. Cold rooms and temperature control rooms are used in this industry to help increase revenue and improve their customer satisfaction.
There are various types of cold rooms used in the agricultural industry, with chiller cold rooms and ambient temperature controlled rooms being most commonly used. So why are cold rooms used in this industry?
Chiller cold rooms in the farming and agriculture industry
Chiller cold rooms do what you’d expect, chill products and produce. They maintain temperatures of between +1⁰C and +8⁰C by combining optimal insulation with high quality refrigeration systems.
By keeping fresh produce in a chiller cold room, it helps reduce shrinkage of fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as increasing the shelf life and maintain the best quality produce possible. This is particularly important if product is being shipped overseas and longer distances.
Cold rooms are not just used to store products, but also for the preparation of products. The food safe cold room panels used to build walk in chillers are the ideal solution in preparation areas, as they ensure your product will be prepared in an easy to clean space with optimal insulation.
Ambient rooms and ambient temperature controlled rooms
Ambient spaces are often used in farming and agriculture for harvesting, processing and preparation.
Ambient rooms installed by MTCSS are built from a food safe panel in the same way a chiller cold room is. Cold room panels are made of a food safe material and sealed so they are easy to clean and have a low risk of contamination. Cold room doors also offer food safe properties.
Temperature controlled ambient rooms maintain temperatures of between +10⁰C and +30⁰C.
Indoor and vertical farming
Indoor and vertical farming is relatively new in the farming world. Indoor farming using various watering and lighting techniques to help with growing in specific and optimal conditions.
Cold room panels can be used to create these spaces due to the food safe insulation properties and their ability to help maintain the specific internal conditions required for indoor growing.
