Greenfield Projects - Building Cold Storage
A cold storage warehouse is the most demanding and capital-intensive type of logistics facility - combining cold chain rigour with high energy costs and technological specifics. Vologis manages cold storage construction from scratch: we design the facility for temperature control and energy efficiency, select refrigeration technology independently and launch operations compliant with requirements.
In cold storage, energy cost and temperature continuity determine everything
A cold storage warehouse isn't just logistics - it's a project where energy efficiency determines operational costs for the full asset life and cold chain continuity determines product safety. Design errors in a cold storage facility are exceptionally costly and difficult to correct after launch.
Service scope
Cold storage facility design
Designing the cold room for temperature control, insulation and energy efficiency.
Refrigeration technology selection
Independent selection of cooling systems, monitoring and temperature automation.
Energy efficiency
Optimising energy costs - the key operational cost of cold storage.
Compliance and launch
Ensuring compliance with requirements and launching cold storage operations.
Who it's for
Food manufacturers
When you're building cold storage for your own production and distribution.
Cold storage operators
When you're building a facility for cold chain customer service.
Pharmaceutical companies
When you need a GDP-compliant temperature storage facility.
In brief
A cold storage Greenfield project is end-to-end management of cold storage construction from scratch: design for temperature control and energy efficiency, independent refrigeration technology selection and operations launch compliant with cold chain requirements. Vologis ensures energy cost and temperature continuity are optimised from the design phase.

FAQ - frequently asked questions
What's most important in a cold storage design?
Energy efficiency and cold chain continuity. Energy is the main operational cost of cold storage for the full asset life, and temperature continuity determines product safety. Both parameters must be optimised at the design stage - correction after launch is very costly.
Do you select refrigeration technology independently?
Yes, 100% independently. We select cooling, monitoring and temperature automation systems solely on fit to your requirements and operating cost, with no supplier ties.
Will the facility meet GDP or food requirements?
We design the facility to comply with the requirements for the stored products - pharmaceutical (GDP) or food. We ensure appropriate temperature control, monitoring and documentation required in the relevant sector.
