Cold storage construction is not for beginners
It may just look like another building from the street, but a lot goes into an optimized cold storage warehouse. Since delays and downtime cost market share, you need everything right the first time. HVAC systems, insulation, backup power — that’s not the half of it.
From laying foundations to installing Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings (PEMBs) like Lidl’s 880,000-square-foot distribution center in Covington, Georgia, we’ve choreographed this dance hundreds of times. Ready to cue the music?
