Operating a cold storage facility presents a unique set of challenges: immense energy costs, strict temperature compliance, harsh working conditions, and the constant risk of product loss. The KINGSHELVING Automated Cold Storage ASRS is engineered specifically to conquer these challenges. It transforms your cold chain warehouse from a high-cost, labor-intensive liability into a precisely controlled, efficient, and reliable profit center, ensuring product integrity from the first inbound pallet to the final dispatch.
Core Problem: Addresses the high costs, compliance risks, and operational hardships of manual cold storage.
Core Solution: An automated system designed for the harsh, critical environment of temperature-controlled logistics.
Primary Value: Converts a cost center into a reliable, efficient, and compliant asset that protects product value.
Our system integrates cold-rated components from the ground up. High-capacity stacker cranes or frost-proof shuttle cars are built with specialized lubricants, seals, and control systems to operate reliably at temperatures as low as -30°C. The racking structure is designed with thermal breaks to minimize cold bridging. Most critically, the fully automated, high-density design drastically reduces the frequency and duration of door openings, maintaining a stable internal temperature. This minimizes thermal shock on equipment and product, while our intelligent WMS provides complete, audit-ready traceability for every pallet.
Built for Cold: Key machinery uses cold-rated components for reliability in deep-freeze conditions.
Smart Design: Thermally optimized racking reduces energy loss and ice formation.
Temperature Stability: Automation minimizes door openings, the primary cause of temperature fluctuation and energy waste.
The return on investment is compelling and multifaceted. The most significant saving comes from energy efficiency; reduced door openings and optimized operation can cut energy consumption by 25-40%. Labor productivity soars as staff work from a warm control room, not the freezer, leading to higher morale, lower turnover, and enhanced safety. Product loss plummets due to consistent temperatures and eliminated manual handling errors. Furthermore, you gain the ability to implement FIFO (First-In, First-Out) with 100% accuracy, which is critical for perishable goods compliance and maximizing shelf life.
OpEx Reduction: Achieves major energy savings (25-40%) and lower labor costs.
Product Protection: Minimizes spoilage and loss through perfect temperature control and handling accuracy.
Compliance & Quality: Enables perfect FIFO control and full traceability for audits.
This automated solution is essential for any industry where temperature integrity is non-negotiable. It is the standard for Food & Beverage producers and distributors (frozen, chilled), Pharmaceutical and Biotech storage (vaccines, APIs), and Advanced Chemical logistics. Whether for large-scale buffer storage, raw material handling, or finished goods order fulfillment, the system ensures your products are stored in perfect condition, ready for the next step in the supply chain.
Ideal Industries: Food & Beverage, Pharmaceuticals, Biotechnology, Chemicals.
Key Applications: Raw material, buffer, and finished goods storage in temperature-controlled environments.
