Temperature-Controlled Marshalling Area for Large Food Distribution Hub

Background 

Following a client recommendation, Stancold worked with commercial property specialists, ISS Property, to create a large chilled marshalling area in a food distribution hub in Coventry. With the end user recently taking over the site, they were looking to make modifications to better suit their operations.

Process

The marshalling area allows products to be inspected and sorted after being picked from the chilled warehouse, before being loaded onto delivery vehicles. Therefore, it was important to explore different designs for the space, where Stancold’s strong technical knowledge was fully utilised to implement a solution that optimised the end user’s needs.

Solution

Stancold’s in-house installation team constructed the chilled marshalling area using 3760m² of Kingspan Quadcore panels. An intricate ceiling design was also completed to allow for the installation of a fire suppression sprinkler system. The build included the integration of the client’s existing sectional doors as well as the installation of new rapid-rise freezer and chiller doors and vision panels.

The project was completed within 6 weeks and with a quick timeframe from initial enquiry through to the project handover, Stancold’s 75 years of experience in food & drink was valuable in achieving a high-quality solution.
