A cold room is a storage area that helps maintain proper products temperature and humidity with the aid of refrigeration equipment including the storeroom, entry room and equipment room. Based on the storeroom nominal volume, a cold room can be divided into large size (20,000m3), medium size (20,000mᶟ – 10mᶟ) and small size (10mᶟ). The table below shows the types of food stored per cold room classification along with the necessary humidity and temperatures needed to maintain products freshness.
