Our mortuary cold rooms are built using modular insulated panels, allowing each cold room to be manufactured around your required size, site layout and storage capacity. This helps reduce installation time while still giving you a durable, energy-efficient and hygienic cold storage solution.

Modular Mortuary Cold Rooms Built Around Your Requirements
Africhill uses modular insulated panels to construct mortuary cold rooms according to each client’s requirements. This gives you control over the cold room size, internal layout and storage capacity needed for your facility.
Our panels are manufactured from chromadek, Zink-Alum or suitable steel finishes on both sides and laminated to insulated core material. The tongue-and-groove panel system helps improve structural strength, reduce air leakage and limit thermal bridges.
This makes Africhill mortuary cold rooms practical for facilities that need reliable cold storage, energy-efficient performance and quicker installation compared with traditional construction.
Pre-Assembled or DIY Mortuary Cold Room Options
Africhill can assist with complete mortuary cold room installations or supply DIY cold room kits for clients who prefer to handle installation themselves.
Our modular panel system is designed for practical assembly. The panels fit together using tongue-and-groove connections, helping create a strong and insulated cold room structure. Refrigeration equipment can then be installed according to the cold room size, temperature requirement and site conditions.
Whether you need a pre-assembled mortuary cold room, a customised cold room installation or a DIY cold room kit, Africhill can recommend a solution based on your facility’s needs.
