Being that we are in the mobile refrigeration business, we thought it might be interesting to look up worldwide refrigeration statistics just to see how our industry fits in. What we found was rather surprising. There are more refrigeration units in the world than we imagined. The statistics clearly demonstrate just how important refrigeration is to the modern world and, indirectly, how important mobile refrigeration is to UK business.

If it seems like we push emergency refrigeration more than we ought to, it is only because we understand one of the fundamental truths of our industry: failure can happen to anyone, at any time. Just ask the hundreds of figure skaters who arrived at the Guildford Spectrum on 22 May to find their much-anticipated competition cancelled due to a refrigeration breakdown.

You own a London restaurant and one of your two freezer units goes down. Of course, you call Icecool Trailers for an emergency freezer trailer. Then you have the agonising process of deciding what to put in the trailer and what to keep inside. You might even be thinking of moving some of the excess inventory in your walk-in chiller to the freezer trailer, so that you can keep some of your frozen inventory inside.

If your plans suggest you will be in the market for cold room hire in the very near future, we hope you will consider Icecool Trailers as your provider. Here are tips for choosing a provider, for your general information.

Behind trailers and walk-in rooms is a scientific concept mankind has been using to preserve food and other perishables for centuries. All we do here is improve on this concept with state-of-the-art technology. If you want to better understand the mechanics behind the average fridge trailer, you need look no further than an earthen device used in Africa.

The Which? website published an article earlier this year discussing the top three fridge-freezer trends for 2017. It was an interesting read if you care at all about retail trends, but those trends don't really apply to what we do at Icecool Trailers. As a UK leader in walk-in freezer and chiller hire, what they do in the retail sector doesn't really affect us.
