Large-Scale Temperature-Controlled Chocolate Storage

Measuring an impressive 40 m × 17 m × 12.8 m high, the facility was engineered to maintain a consistent storage temperature of +15 to 18°C, helping ensure the chocolate remains within the required temperature range throughout storage.

To meet the cooling demands of this substantial space, the refrigeration system incorporates six 13 HP condensing units feeding 12 blower coils.

The blower coils are strategically distributed throughout the cold room to provide even air circulation and uniform cooling, minimising temperature variations across the large storage volume.

The result is a high-capacity, purpose-built refrigeration solution designed around the customer’s product, storage requirements and operational needs.
