In beverage production, large amounts of fruit jam and concentrates are required, often made from fresh fruits and vegetables. To ensure raw materials and semi-finished products remain fresh, cold storage facilities are an essential investment.
For a 3000m² integrated cold storage facility, the estimated construction cost ranges between CNY2.8 million and CNY3.3 million (approximately $386,000 – $455,000 USD*).
Cold Storage Layout and Cost Breakdown
Based on industry experience, a 3000m² integrated cold storage facility for beverage plants can be designed as follows:
- 1500m² Fresh-Keeping Storage (0-15°C): Designed for fruits and vegetables before processing.
- 1000m² Frozen Storage (-18°C): For finished or semi-finished frozen products.
- 450m² Buffer and Handling Area: Improves workflow and prevents temperature loss.
- 50m² Quick-Freezing Storage (-35°C): Ensures rapid freezing of fruit jam to lock in flavor and nutrients.
The total cost, including full refrigeration equipment, is approximately CNY3.3 million (～$455,000 USD*).
