With the increasing globalization every business sector is extending its market national wide and worldwide. The primary challenge while doing the business in multiple areas is to transport the product and store them. In the initial day’s numbers of cold storages are very less and are not sufficient for the demands of the industry. The provision of electricity continuously was also another problem. The need for cold storage is more for food and fruit industry where the cold room is in lack of preservation and transport. If the electricity or storage is not available sufficiently then the whole products are of no use. Along with the growing business needs storage industry is also increasing its innovations and products. The initial refrigeration technique was vapor compression which provides cooling effect to the products stored.
Later on ammonia based and gas based cooling came into existence. Now the refrigeration techniques are changed into air conditioning and cold storages are rooms where the temperatures are very low with concrete walls to prevent the leakage of cooling effect. Many countries which export seafood and fruits are primary users of cold storages and 20 foot shipping containers in Sydney and Melbourne are examples of such big store chains. They store and transport various types of seafood, fruits, and other processed foodsMaintaining cold temperature ranges in a continuous pattern is a must for cold storages and supply of power plays the leading role in this process. Nowadays the refrigeration industry is coming up with new innovations such as gas based and solar based cold storages. The usage of solar power reduces the power consumption charges and provides continuously electricity for the running of the cold storages. Along with the storage of products, it is also essential to transport such products with the help of storage containers.
Many companies prefer reefer container for hire to move their products to their dealers and distributors. The refrigerated containers provide apt cooling for the products throughout the transport so that they are not damaged through the transport process.Some big manufacturing industries require chilling plants and ice plants for manufacturing and preservation of their products such as medicines, processed foods. Fruit ripening rooms and frozen plants with IQF are the latest trends in the food and fruit processing industry. These storage locations require insulation panels and ventilation technologies so that the products have an adequate temperature. These storage rooms need the constant inspection to check the temperature levels. The chilling plants which provide cooling to the cold storages have control panels and digital temperature controls to adjust the cooling and emergency alarms to control any accidental damages. Along with storage locations companies are also providing small containers where delicate products like medicines and injections are storage takes place while transporting.
