Scorpion’s knowledge in this area is based on working with experts in the controlled atmosphere storage field. The combining of storage, refrigeration and associated services in a building, demand detailed design and knowledge of the requirements and Scorpion have the experience and knowledge to achieve these requirements. Fruit storage buildings must meet food produce standards and this must ensure that no contamination can reach the produce.
The remit is for easy access, high specification cladding. Insulated roofs, which Scorpion have pioneered in fruit stores, ensure the build up of ambient temperatures in roof voids is avoided. This ensures that the refrigeration plant will work at it's most economical settings.
Fruit stores must be designed to accommodate the maximum loading of bins into the internal stores and to this end, detailed planning on the span of the building together with eaves heights is vital.
