Pharmaceutical cold storage isn’t just about temperature—it’s about regulatory compliance, reliability, and patient safety. Whether you’re storing vaccines, biologics, or temperature-sensitive medicines, a GSP-compliant smart cold room is non-negotiable.

📦 Storage Capacity: How Much Can You Store?
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Floor Area | 100 m² (e.g., 10m × 10m) |
| Ceiling Height | 3.0 m |
| Total Volume | 300 m³ |
| Estimated Storage Capacity | 80 – 100 pallets (EUR/standard size) |
| Equivalent Medicine Volume | ~25,000 – 35,000 cartons (depending on box size) |
💡 Ideal for regional vaccine depots, hospital pharmacies, or WHO-prequalified distributors handling WHO-PQS or GSP-regulated products.
💰 Total Investment: What You Actually Pay
A fully installed, GSP-compliant smart pharmaceutical cold room (100m², 2–8°C or 2–15°C)—including redundancy, monitoring, backup power, and validation support—typically costs:
32,000– 38,000 USD
✅ This is a complete, audit-ready system—designed to meet WHO, GDP, and national GSP standards.
Key System Specifications:
- Temperature Range: 2°C to 8°C (or 2–15°C for general pharma)
- Insulation: 100mm polyurethane (PU) panels with thermal-break framing
- Refrigeration: 2 × 10HP Copeland fully hermetic compressors (N+1 redundancy – one active, one standby)
- Air Distribution: 2 × DL135 ceiling-mounted evaporators for uniform airflow
- Backup Power: Automatic transfer switch + generator interface
- Controls: Smart microcomputer system with 24/7 remote monitoring, SMS/email alarms, and data logging
- Accessories: Air curtains at doorways to minimize temperature spikes during loading
⚠️ Critical: The system must undergo temperature mapping and validation before use—this is included in professional turnkey projects.
