The layout of a cold-store distribution center is vital

Here at STAB- A- LOAD we are happy to offer any assistance when it comes to choosing the correct doors and dock solutions for your cold-store application. One of our successful customers who are responsible for fruit and vegetable procurement and distribution to Group stores across South Africa, as well as in other parts of the African continent, chose STAB-A-LOAD to assist them with their world class doors to ensure the temperatures remain constant, and material handling equipment that would give them a fast turnaround time when loading and offloading.

Our dockleveler ensures a height-adjustable platform, used to ensure a smooth transition between dock and truck. STAB-A-LOAD docklevellers were installed in 8 refrigerated bays and 3 room temperature bays. Dock Shelters were installed at each of the bays, the benefits of a dock shelter is that they help create safer working conditions in your loading dock area. They keep the floors dry by keeping rain out, which prevents slip-and-fall injuries. They also prevent bugs and pests from entering your cold-store.

STAB-A-LOAD also installed RW Sectional Doors, our sectional doors offer the best insulation, the Thermatite door range are built stronger with Neufoam TM Technology, the door has higher strength to weight ratio and also offers a better Thermal barrier. The sections in the door feature thermal breaks and two continuous replaceable seals to minimize airflow. The Dynaco M2 All Weather was also used in the refrigerated bays together with the Sectional Door, this high speed PVC Door allows fast traffic in and out your cold- room, minimizing temperature variations. Its excellent seal, limits the loss of cooled air and saves energy.
