FAQ
How many pallets fit in a 100 m² cold room?
With 6 m clear height and single-deep racking, 100 m² typically holds 180–220 Euro pallets, or 240–280 with drive-in racking.
What safety margin should I use?
Add 25–30% to raw storage volume for aisles, racking, evaporators and cooling clearances.
Does product density really matter?
Yes. Frozen fish stacks denser than boxed produce. Using a generic density is a common cold-room capex mistake.
