What is a Modular Cold Room?
A modular cold room is a type of cold room (or walk-in cold storage) which consist of insulating panels, allowing high-quality insulation to be assembled in any pattern and to any size you need, with quick and easy installation and unique versatility which can be applied to any industry.
Modular cold rooms are rooms built from insulated panels that use a cam-locking system to fix the panels together. This means that there is a male and female joint in the cold room panels which fits together, then is locked into place.
They are suitable for chiller cold rooms and freezer cold rooms which require small to medium capacity, but modular cold rooms come in specific size ranges based on the thickness of the panel they are built from. For example, if you were looking for a cold room which was 1978mm x 2089mm x 2478mm we would select the nearest size option available.
Modular cold rooms can be quicker and easier to install which makes them ideal for supply and delivery only – this can be a solution if you are looking to reduce project costs.
When would you use a modular cold room?
Modular cold rooms are best used for chiller or freezers which need to be built internally, ie. inside your building, or within a covered area protected from external elements. So when would you use a modular cold room?:
- For chiller and freezer applications
- When you don’t require an exact size cold room
- Cold rooms which are square or rectangular in shape
- For cold rooms used for internal use
- If you are looking for an easy-to-install option
Modular cold rooms are the perfect walk-in cold room solution for various industries, from food and drink retail to hotels and restaurants. You can find examples of modular cold room projects on our case studies page.
What are the Advantages of Modular Cold Rooms?
Modular Cold Rooms have a number of advantages over traditional cold rooms and walk-in freezers. Providing the same great insulation and energy-efficiency, the modular cold rooms for sale from MTCSS are easily adaptable, providing the versatility and agility your business needs in these uncertain times – and our expert installation teams can install them quickly, with absolutely minimal disruption to your normal business operations. The primary advantages of a modular cold room over a traditional model include:
Versatility
When it comes to versatility, it is impossible to match a modular cold room, especially one made by an expert, industry-leading modular cold room manufacturer like MT Cold Storage Solutions. Unlike a conventional cold room installation, installing a modular cold room is a simple matter of connecting the self-contained insulated panels together, making the installation quick and easy – but even more important is the reversibility of the process, enabling you to remove panels with the same ease.
As a result, when you need to expand or downsize your cold storage, a potentially expensive construction project is averted – all you need to do is take panels out, and add (or remove) any panels that you need to create the ideal cold storage solution for your new requirements!
This even applies to the extent of making temporary modular cold rooms, which can be set up to meet seasonal demand, or transported easily to the location where you need them, set up and used, then dismantled and moved again when necessary. No other cold room can offer this level of versatility and adaptability.
Turnkey Installation
As mentioned above, MT Cold Storage Solutions operate a turnkey installation service on all our modular cold rooms. What this means is that we will liaise closely with you to determine the best installation options for your business, choosing the most advantageous possible time and date for you, and working around your existing business operations to prevent as much disruption as possible to your business.
Our modular cold rooms are quick to set up, and require minimal invasive construction work, so you can rest easy knowing that the ordinary running of your business won’t have to stop while your modular cold room is installed. In fact, we will ensure that your installation is as unobtrusive as possible, working completely around your business to provide a service that works for everyone.
Why Choose a Modular Cold Room Over Other Cold Storage Solutions?
The biggest question, then, isn’t whether to invest in a modular cold room, but whether to invest in a cold room over other cold storage options: after all, why should you choose a cold room over a bank of refrigerators, for example?
Space Efficiency
When it comes to space efficiency, one large refrigerated area is vastly more efficient than many smaller refrigerators. With a bank of refrigerators, or several smaller chillers, the refrigerated space is split into many small components, each one with its own insulation, cooling unit and power supply. It’s not hard to see the sense in consolidating these spaces into one, with only one set of insulating walls and only one cooling unit and power supply.
Choosing a cold room – particularly a modular cold room – over a set of many smaller chillers or refrigerators will save a huge amount of space, providing you with more available business space to be put to good use and, ultimately, the potential for a more profitable business.
Cost Efficiency
As well as being more space efficient, a single consolidated space is more energy efficient from a cold storage point of view. Instead of many refrigerated spaces, all drawing power, and all with thinner, less efficient insulation, a large cold room only draws power to one cooling unit and has considerably thicker, more efficient insulating walls. This helps drive down your energy bill and increases business efficiency.
