Key Project
Galloway Seafoods factory in Newton Stewart specialises in producing breaded scampi and other breaded products, mainly for the UK market. A major £4m expansion project was completed in summer 2010, allowing the company to substantially increase both production capacity and their product range.
Design
The design team at Ace Refrigeration worked closely with Galloway Seafoods to ensure the completed project met their business needs now and for the future.
Standards
The 7,569m³ Freezer Room had to be kept to -24° so reliability and efficient back up systems were crucial. The value of stock held at any one time is worth hundreds of thousands of pounds so ACE Refrigeration designed a system to ensure the integrity of the produce at all times.
Ace Refrigeration also created a 100m³ temperature controlled loading bay.
Close Control
Both systems were fitted with state of the art temperature monitoring and recoding systems to allow for close control in real time so any deviation can be acted upon speedily.
What the Customer has to say…
Michael Murphy, Production Director at ScoFro, said: “ACE Refrigeration worked very closely with us on the build of our freezer rooms and refrigerated loading bay at our Newton Stewart factory, ensuring our business needs were at the forefront of the design. We found them very knowledgeable, experienced and reliable and they delivered the project on time and within budget. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for other similar projects.”
