Manufacturing Facility Johnston Sweepers

We were appointed by Samworth Brothers for the design and construction monitoring of their multi-temperature food distribution facility in the Midlands. We were responsible for the insulated envelope and refrigeration, along with all relative mechanical and electrical installations.

The facility is served from a two-stage energy-efficient pumped ammonia refrigeration system utilising hot gas defrosting. The system operates between -30°C and +5°C for storage and operational areas, along with three spiral-driven blast freezers complete with a state-of-the-art food tempering facility for the defrosting of food products.
