Hospitality and retail industries rely on a wide range of technology to deliver fresh produce to us every day. Whether we’re browsing for our weekly shop at the supermarket or dining out at a local restaurant, we will always expect the produce that we buy and consume to be as fresh as possible. This is achieved through a combination of refrigeration equipment and streamlined supply chain management that allows ingredients to remain safe to eat at all times.

When it comes to food storage and preservation, having an effective refrigeration system is essential. One way in which businesses can optimise this part of their food supply is to utilise a cold room. These walk-in refrigeration rooms can keep food cool and fresh, usually at a point just above freezing so it is always ready to use.

Read on to learn more about the numerous benefits a cold room could provide for your business.

Easy Access

One of the main benefits of a cold room is that food and drinks can be accessed easily as part of the preparation process. The room can keep ingredients cool and ready to use at all times, allowing kitchen staff to create high quality dishes without worrying about defrosting. These rooms also make it easier to find what you’re looking for compared to tightly packed freezer drawers or cabinets.

Cleaning & Maintenance

The size and shape of a walk-in cold room means that it is a lot more straightforward to clean and maintain than a regular chest freezer or cool shelving unit. The large open space is easy to wipe and wash, making it simple for staff to meet strict hygiene standards at all times throughout the day.

Affordability

A walk-in cold room can also be more cost effective for businesses than having to run lots of smaller cooling units and freezers. Simply running one large cold room cuts out the expense of maintaining lots of separate pieces of equipment, all while making it much easier to find and access specific ingredients.
