Upgrading and modernizing some of the elements of an existing refrigerated warehouse, and using the right technology for the right application, are essential to creating a world-class refrigerated warehouse. Join the Chairman of Industrial Logistic Systems, Martin Bailey, as we look at the factors that drive the development of an ideal cold store facility.

This session was part of GCCA’s Digital Learning Essentials series. It originally aired on June 29, 2021 and was hosted by GCCA South Africa.

There are unprecedented changes in the cold chain, challenging the way we have been designing, developing, and operating cold storage facilities. Introducing higher levels of automation in your cold storage facility could be the key to overcoming these challenges. Join NewCold Advanced Logistics’ Jonas Swarttouw as he discusses the advantages of automation and the evaluation to go through when determining the right level of automation for your cold storage facility.

This session was part of GCCA’s WFLO Institute Webinar series (now Digital Learning Essentials). It originally aired on November 7, 2019 and was sponsored by Tippmann Innovation.

Warehouse energy usage is the second highest cost in the cold storage industry behind labor and managing energy usage costs is a high priority for temperature-controlled 3PL operators.

The GCCA Energy Excellence Recognition Program helps temperature-controlled warehouse operators measure and improve energy efficiency at each of their facilities. Hear from participants in the GCCA Energy Excellence program on how they have implemented energy audits, improved energy usage at their facilities, and increased sustainability in their operations.
