How Much Does A Modular Cold Room Cost?

Cold room fridges and freezers are a fantastic way of storing food, drink, and other goods within a temperature range of -40 to +30°C.

But, if you don’t have the space or permissions to permanently alter a building and insert your own, a modular cold room brings similar temperature control benefits, without the need for construction work and an interruption to business operations!

But how much will a modular cold room cost?

How Much Will a Modular Cold Room Cost?

A modular cold room’s price is lower than a traditional cold room thanks to the modular construction and building materials needed.

However, you should know that it is not possible to give a one-off cost for a modular cold room unless we know the following factors:

• The necessary size – modular cold rooms come in a range of pre-set small to medium sizes that give a variety of possible room orientations.
• The intended use – modular cold rooms rely on insulated panels, which vary by thickness, so they can accommodate the preferred temperature range within. This means that if you require a space that can freeze goods, specialist thicker panels will be needed.
• Choice of components, like cold room doors and floors – depending on thecomponents you choose, this can affect the total price.
• Support during installation – some providers, such as MTCSS, can install your modular cold room for you – which will impact on your final cost.  

Why Choose a Modular Cold Room Over a Traditional Cold Room?

There are a range of reasons a business might be considering a modular cold room instead of a walk-in fridge or freezer, including:

• Faster construction

A modular cold room is constructed from cam-locked insulated panels (in a range of thicknesses) that come in a range of set sizes.

For this reason, they can be put up much more quickly than traditional built-in walk-in cold rooms which require silicone to seal them.

This also means that with some expert support, DIY enthusiasts can build their modular cold room – something that would not be possible with a walk-in fridge/freezer.

• Great temperature range

Modular spaces can accommodate temperature ranges between -20 to +10°C, while walk-in spaces can cover -40 to +30°C.

This means modular cold rooms can be a perfectly acceptable alternative to more powerful walk-in fridge freezers – who would use more electricity and cost more to run.

• Don’t require built-in construction

Modular cold rooms are perfect for those renting or in buildings with limited footprints, as they don’t need to be built into the building itself. Instead, you can put the modular space on unused land or even in parking spaces that you have on-site.

• Economy

A modular cold room is more economical than a traditional walk-in cold room, making it ideal for businesses that are working with tighter margins or have less profit to reinvest in expanding business operations.

• Durability

While they may be a less expensive option, a modular cold room can still last 10-15 years with proper care and maintenance – giving businesses excellent value for money.
