Intralogistics for the frozen-food industry

The market for frozen food products is growing consistently and retailers continue to expand their product range and the floor space dedicated to convenience foods. In line with this development, the demand for appropriate production and storage capacity is also growing along the entire supply chain. The necessary infrastructure calls for intralogistics systems and processes with maximum efficiency, performance and availability. Automatic deep-freeze warehouses offer the optimal basis for sustainable success.

How-to-guide: In 3 steps to optimized material flows

Optimal food storage and, in particular, deep-freeze storage requires extensive knowledge in a number of areas: These include seasonal fluctuations, temperature and hygiene regulations, as well as individual product properties and the requirements of the entire product range. To ensure optimized material flow, you should choose intralogistics experts who can work together with you to manage these complex challenges. Benefit from the experience gained in numerous other projects within your industry!

Case studies: Warehousing in the deep-freeze sector

In the construction of a deep-freeze warehouse, some key points must be considered: The growing diversity of containers with different handling challenges, the compact dimensions of the building shell, the minimization of transition areas and airlocks, and the use of cold-resistant technology.

Automatic deep-freeze warehouses offer the optimal basis for meeting these requirements. The stored products are monitored consistently while the compact, closed-circuit building cooling ensures constant temperatures. Compared to a manual warehouse, a well planned deep-freeze warehouse enables greater storage volume with minimal personnel and management costs.

White Paper: Top tips for cold storage

The prices for transport and storage services in refrigerated and frozen-food logistics are rising, and this is attributable to limited capacities and increasing personnel and energy costs. Against this background, investments in in-house, highly efficient resources to enable insourcing are becoming more and more viable. Our White Paper looks at all the important points that must be considered when constructing an automated deep-freeze warehouse.
