The cold storage logistics market in Russia is developing rapidly. Demand for renting cold storage facilities is growing from food retailers, pharmaceutical distributors and e-commerce companies. But how do you choose a reliable and technologically advanced facility that will ensure safe storage and uninterrupted logistics?
KRES experts share key parameters to pay attention to when choosing a warehouse.
1. Temperature mode: from +10 to -25 °C
An ideal warehouse should have multi-temperature chambers — from cooling zones (+2…+8 °C) to deep-freezing zones (-18…-25 °C). This allows different product categories to be stored simultaneously, from dairy products to frozen semi-finished products and pharmaceuticals.
KRES offers warehouses with flexible temperature regimes and precise control of climatic parameters.
2. Warehouse class: A+ only
Class A+ cold storage facilities are:
insulated chambers with modern PPU sandwich panels,
