Cold Storage Construction Cost Guide: How Much Per Square Meter?

For investors and business owners, construction cost is the most critical factor when planning a cold storage facility. While the total budget of a cold room project depends on many variables (size, temperature range, equipment brand, design complexity), there is still a general cost reference per square meter based on the cold storage type.

Below is a cost guide (in RMB, approximate range per m²) for different cold storage categories.

Cost Reference by Cold Storage Type

  • Fruit & Vegetable Cold Room (Preservation, 0~5°C):
    ¥800 – ¥1,200 / m² (~$111.20 – ~$166.80)
  • Meat Freezer Room (-18°C or lower):
    ¥900 – ¥1,300 / m² (~$125.10 – ~$180.70)
  • CA Storage (Controlled Atmosphere, fruit & vegetables):
    ¥1,500 – ¥3,000 / m² (~$208.50 – ~$417.00)
  • Pharmaceutical Cold Room (2~8°C or controlled environment):
    ¥900 – ¥1,500 / m² (~$125.10 – ~$208.50)
  • IQF & Blast Freezer (Quick-Frozen Food Storage, -30°C ~ -40°C):
    ¥3,000 – ¥7,000 / m² (~$417.00 – ~$973.00)
  • Ultra-Low Temperature Cold Room (-45°C to -80°C):
    ¥8,000 – ¥20,000 / m² (~$1,112.00 – ~$2,780.00)
  • Meat Aging & Deacidification Room:
    ¥3,000 – ¥5,000 / m² (~$417.00 – ~$695.00)

Important Notes

The above prices are general references only. Actual cold storage construction cost may vary due to:

  • Special requirements (e.g., explosion-proof design, multi-chamber configuration, automation)
  • Specific equipment brands (compressors, condensers, insulation panels, controllers)
  • Site conditions & installation standards (local building codes, energy-saving requirements)

Therefore, the final quotation must be customized based on your project’s temperature needs, storage capacity, and technical specifications.

👉 If you are planning a cold storage project, contact us with your required capacity, temperature range, and functional requirements for a tailored quotation.
