China cold storage solution provider
Project Overview
This project involved the design and construction of a comprehensive, multi-temperature cold storage facility for Guangxi Dahu Starting Point Livestock Co., Ltd., a key local enterprise. The goal was to create an integrated cold chain hub that consolidates slaughter pre-cooling, fresh processing, quick-freezing, low-temperature storage, and logistics distribution under one roof, completing the entire process chain. The entire project, from groundbreaking to commissioning, was delivered within a strict 60-day timeline.

The Core Challenge & Our Integrated Solution
The client faced a common but critical challenge in the meat industry: disconnected processes between slaughter, processing, and storage, leading to potential quality degradation, inefficiency, and an inability to guarantee product freshness throughout the supply chain.
Our solution was a tailored, multi-temperature facility that acts as the central nervous system of their operations:
- -35°C Quick-Freeze Tunnel: Using 200mm thick high-efficiency polyurethane panels, this zone rapidly freezes carcasses through the critical ice crystal formation stage. This minimizes cellular moisture and juice loss, ensuring meat retains its tenderness and quality upon thawing – a key selling point for premium products.
- -18°C Frozen Storage: With 150mm insulation, this area provides stable long-term storage for frozen products, locking in flavor and preventing freezer burn.
- 0~4°C Chilled Storage & Aging Room: The 100mm insulated chillers are crucial for post-slaughter aging and short-term storage of fresh cuts. This controlled environment is essential for developing flavor, tenderness, and ensuring food safety for chilled meat products.
- 10~12°C Processing Area/Buffer Zone: A 75mm insulated space designed for comfortable meat cutting and packaging. It also acts as a thermal buffer between different temperature zones, dramatically reducing energy waste from humidity and heat exchange when doors are opened.
