Transforming Meat Businesses with CRS Mobile Cold Storage

In the demanding world of meat production and distribution, maintaining precise temperature control is paramount to ensuring product quality and safety.

These past projects exemplify how CRS Mobile Cold Storage has played a central role in addressing the unique challenges faced by Karro Food Group and a family-run butcher in Luton. By providing tailored refrigerated storage solutions, CRS has proven to be a valuable partner in the success of these meat businesses.


Karro Food Group

Karro Food Group embarked on a big endeavour to launch a new product range within a major Irish retailer. Facing diverse temperature storage requirements, including blast freezing, chilling, thawing, and frozen storage, Karro approached CRS Mobile Cold Storage for a comprehensive solution.

The challenge presented to CRS was multifaceted – meeting customised and specialist equipment needs, ensuring direct access from the existing facility, and adhering to a tight project deadline.

To meet Karro McGee's specific requirements, CRS collaborated closely with the dedicated project manager. Plans and drawings were submitted based on volume needs and blast capacity. The solution involved a large mega cold store unit for chilled storage, combined with a blast freezer, holding freezer, and a thawing unit, seamlessly integrated into the production process. Additionally, a 6-pallet modular cold room was constructed within the existing chilled production area to accommodate products requiring temperatures below 4˚C.

The project was executed with precision, delivering the required storage capacity on time and with minimal disruption to existing facilities. CRS's flexible and considerate approach played a crucial role in the project's success!

Luton Butcher and Supplier

A family-run butcher in Luton, serving catering outlets in the region, faced a space issue as their business expanded. Having experienced the efficiency of CRS Cold Storage with a previous 20ft solution, the butcher turned to CRS once again to address their growing storage needs.

The primary challenge for the butcher was the limited available space, necessitating an expansion of their cold storage facilities.

The CRS team worked closely with the family-run SME, ensuring easy communication to deliver a hassle-free solution. The optimised space now accommodated an expanded storage area for chilled meats and other catering produce, enhancing the accessibility of the production cold storage area.

The butcher praised the CRS team for their commitment to timely delivery, alleviating the stress associated with lead times. The seamless process provided by CRS Cold Storage allowed the butcher to focus on their core business activities without disruptions.
