While threats of recession loom around the world, the cold chain global market is not cooling off with double-digit growth projected over the next decade as more and more products require cold environments.

When designing and constructing buildings today extreme weather must be taken into consideration.

Just this summer, for example, the United States experienced a sweltering heat wave across the country plus four separate flooding events that each qualify as 1-in-1,000 year rainstorms.

Sherwin-Williams, the largest U.S.-based paint supplier, says that metal roofs with their combination of durability, strength, fire resistance, and architectural design are no longer just a choice for commercial projects.

Insulated metal panels (IMPs), with their energy efficiency and thermal performance, are still the go-to material for cold storage facility construction, but advances in IMP detailing by manufacturers and architects over the years now allows these systems to be used across a wider range of projects.

Insulated metal panels (IMPs) shine brightest when it comes to energy efficiency with their built-in insulation, high R-values, low thermal conductivity, and all-in-one air, water, and vapor barrier.

IMPs are not only a green solution that can help your building qualify for LEED certification, but...

The demand for large-scaled cold storage is growing at a rapid clip across multiple industries from ports to cities in both retail and industrial space.

“Cold storage forms an important part of the logistics supply chain,” said the “Cold Storage Construction – Global Market Trajectory & Analytics”...

The future of cold storage has been reshaped the past two years by the COVID-19 pandemic and changing behaviors of consumers around the globe.

“One of the interesting trends brought about by the pandemic is the skyrocketing demand for cold storage warehouses,” writes Joanna R. Turpin in ACHR News.

While the COVID-19 pandemic has put many sectors of the global economy in a deep freeze, the cold storage market has been heating up thanks to a variety of factors from a rising online demand for direct-to-consumer perishables to the refrigeration needs of the coronavirus vaccines.

Cold storage construction continues to ramp up in the United States as the entire Global Cold Chain Market heats up.

The demand for cold storage is driven by a variety of factors from COVID-19 vaccine refrigeration needs to an increased post-pandemic appetite for online grocery shopping to changing...

The global cold chain’s Herculean efforts to support the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines will likely lead to investment and expansion of cold storage across the planet that could save lives long after the coronavirus crisis ends. COVID-19 vaccines require unprecedented cold storage on a massive scale...
