Basically, the floor area needed for refrigerated storage can be calculated by determining the maximum amount of product the facility will be expected to handle in units of volume divided by the storage height. Storage height is usually about 2 m, the height of a pallet load. Pallet bins are sometimes stacked to a height of over 3 m. To this area, add space for corridors and space for lift truck movement.

Adequate airflow is needed to distribute refrigerated air throughout the facility and maintain uniform air temperatures. Airflow maintains adequate temperature uniformity. This can be done by the intermittent operation of fans, or by keeping the fans constantly on but reducing their speed with an electronic speed control system. Slow airspeeds reduce moisture loss from the product. Airflow must be distributed uniformly throughout the cold room to minimize temperature variability.
Airflow can also be important in the technical rooms and plenum for cooling and condensation control.
Cold storage buildings have many different features that make a difference in maintaining the desired temperature and relative humidity (RH). A uniform temperature is maintained by adequate refrigeration capacity, uniform air distribution, minimal temperature difference between the evaporator coil and the air temperature, and a precise temperature control system.
The refrigeration design should also consider the best integration of the cooling installation in parallel with the building design in order to reduce, for instance, the distance between condenser and evaporator and thereby avoid losses.
Do you need a controlled atmosphere cold storage system for fresh fruit and vegetable storage?
Your building has many different features that make a difference in controlled atmosphere cold storage with specially adjusted air information. If you need to generate as much storage space as possible on the ground surface that is available, the area and especially the height of the steel building can be used in an optimal way to store goods.
KKJ CONSTRUCTION solutions are designed to integrate optimum insulation and humidification devices, and appropriate humidity sensors meet the strict technical & hygiene requirements for controlled atmosphere cold storage.

When you start thinking about a new building, you usually have many ideas in your head – dreams, needs, concerns. At KKJ Constructions, we help you turn your ideas into reality – within a fixed timeframe and a fixed budget. We translate your functional and regulatory requirements into fluid space. You validate each phase and remain the decision-maker for the proposed options: ergonomics, structure, choice of materials.
Adapt your building to any type of environment. Shape, climatic & atmospheric conditions, soil & seismic characteristics, together we will find the best configuration to contribute to the profitability of your project.
Your building can be designed to allow for future modifications to best accompany the development of your company, without interrupting your operations: an extension, photovoltaic installation, future cranes … or mutability.
Your industrial building optimized in its design & realization
At KKJ Constructions, we help you turn your ideas into reality – within a fixed timeframe and a fixed budget. Our team provides you with different variants of building solutions so you can select the one which best suits your needs, the most effective with respect to future usage. It includes energy efficiency, lighting optimization, and minimized construction cost. Our expert team focuses on analyzing your designed building features, systems, equipment, and material selections in order to achieve essential functions at the lowest life cycle cost, consistent with the required performance, quality, reliability, and safety.
We have full control of the supply chain from purchasing through the engineering study, manufacturing to installation. The result is an increased efficiency of the entire process to ensure the right product is at the right place at the right time.
A pre-engineered steel building is the key to a successful assembly. No welding or cutting should be necessary on-site. Everything is thought out in advance for a precise and fast assembly of your building. We are a one-stop shop for all of your large industrial building project needs: having all building components at the right place at the right time, for perfect job site coordination.
Our buildings are produced in our two manufacturing plants. The prefabrication at the plant also ensures a smooth assembly process. KKJ Constructions uses smart-shaped profiles. All products can be packed efficiently. 5 times more compact means 5 times less delivery cost, 1,000 m² building fit on 1 truck.
A fast and efficient process
KKJ Constructions helps you to turn your ideas into reality – within a fixed timeframe and a fixed budget. We use a system approach and pre-engineered products that perfectly fit together. Usually, it takes 10 – 12 weeks for the complete design and production of your building.
