Coldroom Storage
Storeplan provides coldroom shelving and coldroom racking for new and existing cold storage spaces. Whether you need shelves for hand-picked cartons and containers or pallet racking for bulk stock, we help plan the storage layout around your products, available space and handling requirements.
Our coldroom storage services also include designing, building and installing complete coldrooms. Discuss your operating temperature, storage loads and cleaning requirements with our team so the shelving or racking can be specified for the intended environment.

Coldroom Shelving for Hand-Picked Stock
Coldroom shelving, also called coolroom shelving or cold room shelving, provides storage for items picked and replenished by hand. Plan shelf widths, depths and levels around your cartons, trays and containers, including the space needed to handle them.
For an existing coldroom, consider the door opening, available wall space and working access. A new installation gives you the opportunity to plan the room and shelving together. Storeplan can help with either approach. Confirm the shelf material, finish and load rating for your operating conditions before choosing a configuration.
Coldroom Racking for Palletised Stock
For bulk stock handled on pallets, the racking layout needs to suit your pallet sizes, handling equipment and stock rotation. Storeplan’s guide to coolroom and freezer storage identifies three common system types:
- Selective pallet racking provides direct access to each pallet, making it useful where different products need to be retrieved independently.
- Drive-in pallet racking uses lanes for larger quantities of similar stock. Its first-in, last-out operation needs to suit your stock rotation requirements.
- Double-deep pallet racking increases storage depth and requires a suitable specialist reach truck or attachment. Access to rear pallets depends on the front positions.
These are system types to discuss for your project. Confirm the selected components, finish and temperature suitability for the specific coldroom or freezer. Read our guide to pallet racking in coolrooms and freezers, or compare the wider industrial pallet racking range.
Planning Your Coldroom Storage Layout
For a useful quote, provide the internal room dimensions, door positions, operating temperature, item or pallet sizes, loaded weights and quantities to store. Describe how stock is received, picked and replenished, together with your cleaning requirements. Include any existing equipment or obstructions that affect the layout.
Complete Coldroom Construction and Fit-Outs
Storeplan also designs, builds and installs coldrooms. Our Costa Group storage project included coldroom construction, refrigeration equipment and racking work across multiple sites. It shows how cold storage can form part of a wider facility project.

Coldroom shelving is generally used for hand-picked cartons, trays and containers. Coldroom pallet racking holds palletised stock accessed with suitable handling equipment. The terms sometimes overlap, so choose the layout around your stock dimensions, loaded weights and access needs. Storeplan can help plan shelving, racking or a combination for your space.
Storeplan has installed racking in coolrooms and freezers. The selected system must be suitable for the actual operating temperature, moisture conditions and loads. Share those requirements with the team so the components, finish and configuration can be confirmed. Suitability should not be assumed for every standard racking system.
Provide your room dimensions and operating temperature, the sizes and weights of stored items, the number of shelf levels required and how staff access the stock. Include door positions, cleaning requirements and any existing equipment. Let Storeplan know whether you need shelving for an existing room or a complete coldroom installation.
