New deep-freeze warehouse for the “Cool Corridor”

SCHORTENS/WESEL. Nordfrost opened its new deep-freeze facilities in Wesel am Niederrhein in early July. The premises, which can accommodate roughly 25,000 multi-temperature pallet bays, play a key part in Nordfrost’s “Cool Corridor” concept. The plan is now to store refrigerated containers on the Rhine, which were previously mainly transported by truck to the western ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp. “Customers save more than 65 per cent of CO2 on every container by shifting transport to the waterway alone,” stated Branch Manager Carsten Fricke.
