China cold storage solution provider
Building an egg cold storage room is a key investment for poultry farms, egg distributors, and food processing companies. Eggs are perishable and sensitive to temperature; when stored at 0–1°C (32–34°F), their freshness and nutritional value can be effectively preserved for an extended period.
The cost of constructing an egg cold room varies widely depending on building structure, insulation materials, refrigeration equipment, automation level, and geographic location. While there is no fixed universal price, we can provide a general cost estimate based on market data and project experience in China (for reference).
💰 Average Construction Cost (China Region Reference)
Based on recent projects, the average cost to build an egg cold storage in China ranges from USD 110 – 155 per square meter (≈ RMB 800 – 1100 / m²).
| Cold Storage Type | Temperature Range | Estimated Cost (USD/m²) | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Egg Preservation Cold Room | 0 ~ 1°C | 110 – 155 | Long-term egg storage |
| Small Modular Cold Room | 0 ~ 5°C | 130 – 180 | Retail or distribution use |
| Large Warehouse Cold Room | 0 ~ 2°C | 100 – 140 | Egg processing base |
⚠️ Note: The above prices are for reference only (based on Chinese construction costs). Actual costs vary depending on materials, equipment brands (e.g., Bitzer, Copeland compressors), and automation systems (temperature control, alarms, remote monitoring, etc.).
Why Egg Cold Storage Matters
Eggs stored at ambient temperature quickly lose moisture, firmness, and freshness.
By keeping eggs at 0–1°C and relative humidity around 80–85%, cold storage can extend shelf life to 6–8 months while maintaining quality and nutritional value.
