Thriving In The Cold: Integrating Building Design, Automation And Management To Improve Cold Storage Efficiency

Cold Storage is Heating Up — Are You Ready?

Cold chain storage is booming, with the global market projected to grow at 18.6% CAGR through 2030, reaching beyond its $279.9B mark in 2022 (Grand View Research). But growth brings challenges.

Labor shortages, high energy costs, and shifting inventory demands are straining cold storage operations. Long-term storage is out — fast-turn inventory is in. And in an environment where energy is the second-highest expense after labor, efficiency is everything.

Automation offers the key — but in cold storage, it’s not plug-and-play. True performance gains come only when automation is tightly aligned with building design from the ground up.

This paper explores a collaborative approach where architects, automation experts, and operators work together to build smarter, faster, more resilient cold storage facilities built for the future.
