Frequently asked questions
-
What is the main difference between a cold room and a freezer room?
The main difference lies in the temperature range and the associated purpose. Cold storage cells typically operate in the plus degree range (e.g. +2°C to +10°C) and are used to keep food fresh or to store temperature-sensitive products. Deep-freeze rooms, on the other hand, generate temperatures well below freezing (e.g. -18°C to -25°C or colder) and are designed for the long-term preservation of frozen goods.
-
Which temperature ranges are ideal for which foods?
The ideal storage temperatures vary greatly depending on the food. In general, according to DIN 10508, the following applies to food requiring refrigeration in the commercial sector: minced meat at ≤+2∘C, fresh fish near 0°C, dairy products often at +4°C to +7°C, and many types of fruit and vegetables also in this range.
Frozen food should generally be stored at a minimum of -18∘C to ensure quality and shelf life. -
How energy-efficient are the cold storage and deep-freeze rooms from Plattenhardt+Wirth?
Energy efficiency is a core aspect of our cold storage and deep-freeze rooms. We rely on state-of-the-art components, first-class insulation through custom-fit sandwich panels and individual planning that minimizes heat loss. Our cells are designed to lower your operating costs and reduce your environmental impact.
-
Does Plattenhardt+Wirth also offer customized solutions for special industry requirements (e.g. pharmaceuticals, butchers)?
Yes, absolutely. Individual planning and adaptation to specific industry requirements is one of our core competencies. Whether compliant cold storage cells or deep-freeze cells for the pharmaceutical industry, hygienic cells for food processing, special meat cold storage cells for butchers or freezer cells for bakeries - we develop solutions that are precisely tailored to your processes and the applicable requirements.
-
What role does insulation play in cold storage and deep-freeze rooms?
Insulation is a decisive factor for the performance and efficiency of a coldroom or deep-freeze room. High-quality insulation, usually provided by sandwich panels with a core of rigid polyurethane foam, minimizes the amount of heat entering the cell from outside. This results in shorter running times for the refrigeration unit, saves energy and ensures a more stable, hygienic internal temperature.
-
How long does it take to plan and install a coldroom?
The time from planning to finished installation depends on the size and complexity of the system as well as the specific customer requirements. Smaller standard cells can often be realized more quickly than large, individually planned coldrooms. Plattenhardt+Wirth attaches great importance to efficient planning and assembly processes.
-
Does Plattenhardt+Wirth also offer service and maintenance for the installed coldrooms?
Yes, a comprehensive service and maintenance offer is an integral part of our services. Regular maintenance by our experts or certified partners ensures the longevity, energy efficiency and operational reliability of your coldrooms. We offer individual maintenance contracts and can provide you with a fast repair service and spare parts supply if necessary.
-
Can existing cold rooms be modernized or extended?
Yes, Plattenhardt+Wirth also has expertise in the modernization and expansion of existing cold storage and deep-freeze rooms. Whether it's renewing components to increase energy efficiency, replacing doors or expanding storage capacity - we will be happy to advise you on the options for bringing your existing coldroom up to the latest state of the art.
