Many products can be damaged or destroyed when stored in higher temperatures. Having a cold storage facility is essential for many industries, especially in hot climates. Here, Unicold Corporation, a frozen food shipping company in Honolulu, HI, shares a few of the industries they work with.

5 Industries That Use Cold Storage

1. Restaurants & Food Services

Many restaurants require a lot of storage space for ingredients and prepared dishes. They can use cold storage for items not needed on-site or shipped in from overseas, perfectly preserving the freshness and taste of their ingredients.

2. Grocery Stores

Grocery stores have a lot of fresh produce shipped in as well, and need a refrigerated warehouse to store those items until they go on shelves. These stores will also have other inventory of the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) variety. These don’t necessarily qualify as perishable, but should still be kept at certain temperatures.

Cold Storage3. Hospitals & Clinics

Another sector that frequently needs to make use of refrigeration facilities is the healthcare industry. Many medicines and medical samples need to be stored at consistent temperatures for preservation. Mortuaries and blood banks also rely on cold storage and shipping to safely transport their supplies.

4. Science Labs

The science labs that produce those healthcare medicines also make frequent use of cold storage facilities. Many drug manufacturing processes require low temperatures, and refrigerated warehouses provide the precise climate control needed.

5. Electronics Distributors

Electronics are especially sensitive to heat whether they’re in use or just being stored. Electronics distributors often make use of cold storage facilities to protect their inventory, so they can deliver it to the consumer in perfect condition.
