STORING FISH IN REFRIGERATED CONTAINERS

Maintaining the freshness of meat and fish until it reaches the marketplace can be logistically challenging. We understand companies in this industry can experience seasonal peaks and declines in demand for produce; thus, storage often plays a crucial role.

Refrigerated container-based storage can be indispensable in this role. It is scalable, can be leased on a short-term or long-term contract, and deployed almost anywhere. The below points explain further benefits of this affordable storage solution:

Technical Specifications of Reefer Containers

Refrigerated containers are manufactured in several different sizes to accommodate various requirements. Our smallest units are just 10ft long, while the largest ones span the length of 40ft, with height and width standardised for compatibility. The supported temperature range is broad and goes all the way down to -35 ͦ C, which is suitable for deep freezing fish products. Containers come equipped with aluminium loading ramps and have flat wooden floors, facilitating easy use of trolleys to load and unload the cargo. The energy consumption of Reefer units can be up to as much as 30% lower than traditional cold storage facilities.

Reliable Cold Storage in Any Weather

Fish needs to be stored immediately after it has been caught. For this reason, refrigerated storage units are resistant to moisture penetration and corrosion. Their robust construction and reliable cooling equipment guarantee that your goods will remain in perfect condition regardless of external elements.

Mobility and Flexibility of Containerised Storage

Cold containers can be easily moved from one location to another and function reliably even in remote locations. This form of storage is often more cost-effective than traditional brick-and-mortar solutions, especially when used to accommodate excess stock during peak seasons.

Arrange for containers to wait ready when the shipment arrives. That way, the risk of spoilage can be kept at a minimum and retail operations can be expected to yield maximum returns.

BULKPOWDERS

Thank you very much for the service provided by Spacewise. BULKPOWDERS rented 3 x 40ft Refrigerators for the summer season. An excellent service from our initial phone call through to the end of the agreement. Great communications, ease of contract, quick delivery of selected refrigerators, with a faultless rental agreement period. Thank you for the service

Equipment delivery is good quality and clean. Commissioning (usually next day unless otherwise organised) is complete by suitably qualified engineers and an ‘operating’ explanation given to the end user.

In addition their after-sales support is very good, tech. offering advice and engineer if deemed appropriate.

We contacted Spacewise to supply us with 2 refrigeration storage units on behalf of the client and their bar supplier as a long hire during the peak season. We haven’t experienced a single problem with them and we have found the team to be helpful and reliable at all times. Happy bar company, happy client! They come highly recommended.
