Common Products That Are Kept In Coolrooms to Retain Freshness

06 August 2015

A coolroom is an invaluable resource. The optimal temperature within the room hovers between +0°C and +4°C, thus keeping perishable items safely stored and water chilly but fluid. This is the sweet spot for keeping wine and beverages cold but still ice-free. These bottled alcoholic beverages and their non-alcoholic relatives make for a straightforward example of a product that can be seen every day within coolroom enclosures. But, not content to settle on bottled liquids, we want to pose other questions, inquiries that will clarify what other exotic products can be legally stored in coolrooms. Without further ado, let’s explore the cool realms and near frosty habitats that populate commercial and industrial facilities.

Floral Establishments
Freshness is the single most important aspect to consider when caring for flowers. When achieving this goal within the home, you pull out a vase and puff a few vaporized clouds of water onto dry petals. When the scale grows to floral business size, a scope that can encompass hundreds of flowering plants, business logistics can assume nightmarish proportions. All those flowers have to be delivered, but they also have to be kept fresh until the driver can load them in the back of an air conditioned truck. A glass-encased coolroom is the ideal solution. The cool temperature keeps life-sustaining water from evaporating and flowering plants dormant until delivery time swings around.

Wine and Beverage Storage
We’ve touched on this example already but purposefully omitted just how versatile this configuration can become. Beverage storage can be as simple as a fully enclosed coolroom within a winery or as complex as a multi-entrance model within a supermarket. The service entrance allows egress from an alley and a ramp. Meanwhile, rows of glass-fronted doors act as a display front and show off the bottles of wine, soda and fruit juice.

Taking a Coolroom on the Road
This ambitious business model adds portability to standard temperature control features. The cooling apparatus is then powered by the accompanying vehicle or a standalone generator. It’s really an ideal solution for garden parties and banquets, for remote movie shoots and wedding receptions where prepared food is kept on hand for hungry guests.

Scientific and Medical Research Facilities
Improper storage conditions represent a very dangerous issue when keeping drugs potent. This is more of an issue regarding potency than freshness but the two terms are considered equivalent variables in this case. Special scientific coolrooms with super-precise thermostatic controls are the hallmarks of these devices. Reliable airflow and the minimization of humidity is crucial within the medical research domain.

Fresh storage is where coolroom applications abound, but it only takes a moment’s thought to break away from these applications. A morgue or a forensic laboratory depends on the time-stoppage traits of these cooling environments, as do a multitude of other usage areas.
