Project Overview:
Haocool successfully completed a low-temperature cold storage project for Socalait, a renowned French ice cream manufacturer based in New Caledonia. The project included three freezer rooms, each maintained at -23°C, designed to store a large variety of premium ice cream products.
All cold storage panels and refrigeration equipment were manufactured and shipped directly from Haocool’s production base in Shanghai, ensuring the highest quality standards. Upon arrival in France, Haocool’s professional engineering team worked on-site with local technicians and builders, providing technical supervision, installation guidance, and commissioning support.
The result was a high-performance cold storage system that met strict European food safety and energy efficiency requirements — earning unanimous praise from Socalait’s technical department and management team.
Project Details:
- Total number of cold rooms: 3
- Operating temperature: -23°C
- Storage capacity: approx. 500 tons of ice cream and raw materials
- Average power consumption: about 28–32 kWh/m³ per year, optimized through Haocool’s advanced refrigeration design
- Construction period: 3.5 months (from equipment shipping to full operation)
Customer Value:
Before the project, Socalait faced challenges maintaining stable storage temperatures for large ice cream batches, leading to occasional quality loss during transportation and peak production seasons.
After Haocool completed the project, the company achieved:
- Stable temperature control at -23°C, ensuring consistent ice cream texture and flavor.
- Reduced product loss by over 15%, due to improved cold chain management.
- 30% improvement in energy efficiency, thanks to Haocool’s low-energy refrigeration system.
- Increased cold storage capacity, enabling Socalait to expand production and export to nearby Pacific markets.
Client Introduction:
Socalait, located in New Caledonia, France, is a well-known manufacturer specializing in premium ice cream and frozen desserts. The company produces and distributes a wide range of high-end frozen products across New Caledonia and French Pacific territories.
