Magnavale Warrington Cold Store Expansion Enters Final Stage of Completion

Magnavale Warrington Cold Store Expansion Enters Final Stage of Completion

“We have now concluded the external construction of the expansion at our Warrington facility, with internal fit out in progress. This expansion will add an additional 8000 pallet spaces to our already large network, providing additional capacity, allowing us to accommodate the huge and ever-growing demand we have seen for our services”, – says in company Magnavale.

Not only is this expansion increasing capacity, but it is also focusing on the renewal of the equipment within the facility, making it more environmentally friendly, in order to help achieve the UK’s target of becoming Net Zero by 2030.

The equipment being replaced includes the current compressors and condensers, which will result in energy savings, and a drastic reduction in carbon emissions over the upcoming years.

Magnavale Chief Operating Officer, Amanda Cogan commented, “The additional 8,000 spaces are a much-needed expansion of our offering at Warrington. The ideal geographic positioning of Magnavale Warrington and the current high demand for our services, means space at the facility is a highly sought-after commodity. This expansion will allow us to offer more capacity to our existing customers and potentially onboard some new partners as well. We remain dedicated to our mission of improving our customers supply chains by cutting cost, risk and complication, and this is another step forward that allows us to live up to that ambition.”

Case Study – Effect of Louvers or diffusers on air flow distribution and cooling time on a meat log during Chill cycle

By Kushal Aurangabadkar An experimental analysis was conducted on a cooler space measuring 3.66 m × 6.096 m (12.0 ft × 20.0 ft), equipped with an ammonia refrigeration coil, five 30 cm (12 in.) fans, and five diffusers. The study measured airflow patterns, cooling rates, and heat transfer efficiency in meat storage by testing two configurations:

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for Modular Refrigeration Systems in Life Sciences Distribution Centers

by Ramez Naguib, P.E. Introduction Life sciences distribution centers are under immense pressure to deliver consistent temperature control, comply with increasingly stringent regulations, and optimize operational efficiency. Traditional built-up refrigeration systems often prove cumbersome, costly, and slow to implement. In contrast, modular, factory-assembled refrigeration systems have emerged as a compelling alternative. Drawing on lessons from
