Development of a highly efficient CO2 refrigeration system.

The Cube Cold Theale site is a multi-temperature facility with 23,000 pallet spaces within frozen, chilled and controlled ambient storage. We designed a highly efficient CO2 refrigeration system to serve several chambers, achieving between -30°C and +25°C. The facility will achieve BREEAM ‘Excellent’ and EPC A+ sustainability credentials.

We designed each chamber temperature to be regulated within MHRA and ISO 9001 guidance for storage of medical and pharmaceutical products. We also designed the site as a Type A bonded facility for duty suspended goods and ISO 9001.

Temperature control systems continuously monitor conditions within the facility, implementing a smart energy system that shifts demand to hours during which there is high supply of renewable energy.
