The Cold Chain Federation has recently released its central guidance for employees and employers outlining the risks unique to cold stores and advice on how to minimise them. This document has many features and can be used to help stakeholders to check their site procedures against the recommendations, be distributed to those working on site as part of their training and continuous development and it includes printable posters to display on site.

Partner's material In March 2026, Secop’s Solar Direct Drive Power Management Module was granted WHO PQS prequalification and officially listed in the WHO Catalogue of Prequalified Immunization Devices. The WHO IMD-PQS (Immunization Devices Performance, Quality and Safety programme) is the global benchmark for cold chain equipment used in immunisation. Being listed in its catalogue is
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:
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
