A cold room is not only a panelled room with a refrigeration unit. The correct setup depends on the insulation, panel thickness, door position, evaporator placement, condenser location, pipe run, electrical supply, drainage, temperature range and how often the room will be opened during operation.
Glotech Group handles the full cold room setup process, including design advice, insulated panel installation, refrigeration equipment selection, installation, commissioning and after-installation support.

Custom-designed cold room solutions built to meet your storage requirements, improve efficiency, and ensure consistent temperature control for your business.
Before installation, Glotech Group designs the refrigeration system needed to keep your cold room operating at the correct temperature. This includes selecting the correct evaporator, condensing unit, pipework layout, controls, drainage points and electrical requirements for the room.
The system design is based on the room size, required temperature, product load, ambient conditions, door usage and daily operating demands. Proper refrigeration design helps improve temperature stability, energy efficiency and long-term reliability.
We assist with complete cold room assembly and setup, from panel layout and room positioning to refrigeration installation, testing and commissioning.
This service is useful for new businesses, kitchen upgrades, food production sites, hospitality facilities and companies replacing old or undersized chilled storage rooms.
Our team checks the structure, sealing, door position, airflow, drainage and refrigeration performance before handover, so the cold room is ready for daily business use.
We install walk-in cold rooms for businesses that need reliable chilled storage for stock, ingredients, beverages or temperature-sensitive products.
These rooms are also commonly referred to as chiller rooms or cool rooms, depending on the business and application. They are suitable for restaurants, hotels, butcheries, bakeries, food suppliers, supermarkets, wine estates, commercial kitchens and production facilities.
Each walk-in cold room is designed around your available space, product type, required temperature, door usage, stock movement and daily workflow. The goal is to create a practical chilled storage room that supports your operation without unnecessary strain on the refrigeration system.
We provide commercial cold storage installation for businesses that need larger or more structured chilled storage areas for stock holding, preparation, dispatch or distribution.
This type of installation is often required by food producers, catering companies, hospitality groups, suppliers, packhouses and businesses that need more capacity than standard commercial fridges can provide.
