Q. Why is it important to be a part of the Cold Chain Federation?

We feel that throughout the federation there is a common goal of producing and maintaining the most efficient and reliable forms of transporting and storing cold goods, and we feel that we can both learn and share our knowledge of this sector with like-minded people, in an environment where all parties have different expertise in this sector. We think that by bringing all these companies together in the form of the Cold Chain Federation, that the best possible warehousing solutions for cold storage can and will be achieved.

Q. What are Moffett’s aspirations for the industry?

At Moffett Automated Storage we see the future of cold storage in Automation. Automated palletised systems such as the Moffett ‘4D Taxi’ AS/R system have already proven to be a more efficient warehousing solution, allowing businesses to make the best possible use of their cold storage space, maximising storage density while maintaining optimum throughput, minimising energy loss in the cold storage, and eliminating the need for human presence in the cold storage, allowing your cold storage to be operated 24/7 without disruption, whilst the health and safety of your employees are guaranteed.

A MAS system minimises energy loss, by having much smaller doors in and out of cold storage, eliminating the need for lights, and by reducing the presence of people and forklift trucks in the cold storage. By reducing the energy loss reaffirms the company’s commitment to producing a more sustainable cold storage warehousing solution which in turn leads to savings for the customer.
