12,000 m³ seafood cold storage & blast freezer — Vietnam
An export-grade seafood processor needed a multi-temperature facility combining IQF tunnels, blast freezers and long-term storage to meet EU/Japan buyer requirements.
Da Nang, Vietnam 12,000 m³ −25 °C storage, −40 °C blast
Challenge
- Existing facility could not blast-freeze shrimp fast enough for export specs.
- Energy costs rising 14% year-on-year on R22 plant nearing end-of-life.
- HACCP and BRCGS audit gaps on temperature traceability.
ColdMatch solution
- ColdMatch sourced 3 shortlisted EPCs from Korea, Italy and Vietnam.
- Selected NH₃/CO₂ cascade plant with IoT monitoring (logger + cloud).
- Phased construction allowed processing to continue during build.
“ColdMatch handled the EPC tender across three countries — the savings paid for the upgrade in under four years.”
