The Definitive Webinar Series for Cold Chain Professionals
The Cold Chain Federation delivers webinars through two complementary series, designed to provide practical insight and expert perspectives for cold chain professionals.
Cold Chain Connect webinars are hosted by CCF members and partners, sharing real-world experience, innovation, and practical case studies from across the industry.
Cold Chain Insight webinars are led by the Federation and focus on policy, research, guidance, and sector-wide priorities.
Policy Pulse: August Deep Dive
Thursday 27th August @ 10:00-10:45
Stay informed with our monthly Cold Chain Policy Pulse webinar, where we unpack the latest policy changes shaping the cold chain sector. Join us for an in-depth discussion on what these developments mean for your business, the key headlines to watch, and how they could impact your operations. You’ll also hear directly from us about the work we’re doing behind the scenes to represent members’ interests and influence policy on behalf of the sector.
Beyond Compliance: Turning Carbon Data into Competitive Advantage
Tuesday 15 September @ 12:30-13:15
This session takes cold chain operators on a practical journey from compliance to competitive advantage. Starting with the regulatory foundations – ESOS,SECR/CFAR and Climate Change Agreements – James Hoarle from Pro Enviro will show how energy and carbon data, made visible through aM&T and Pro Enviro’s Energy and Carbon Portal, can move from a reporting exercise to a driver of real operational savings. He’ll then look at the technologies and measures that turn those insights into action: solar PV, electric HGVs and process optimisation. Whether you’re just getting to grips with your compliance obligations or already looking at your net-zero roadmap, this session offers something practical at every stage.
- How to get more value from your compliance obligations – understanding what ESOS, SECR and CCAs are telling you, and how to use that data beyond the report.
- How half-hourly energy visibility and What IF analysis can identify savings opportunities that would otherwise stay hidden.
- The technology options available to cold chain operators today – from solar and storage to electric HGVs – and how to assess what’s right for your operation.
Beyond Capacity – Rethinking the True Cost of Cold Storage
Tuesday 22 September @ 12:30-13:15
This session looks at the true cost of cold storage, and why it is about far more than refrigeration capacity. We will challenge the traditional “how much space and what does it cost” approach and show how factors like energy use, labour efficiency, stock movement and space utilisation often have a bigger impact on operating costs than the original investment. Dan Robinson from Lowe Rental joins us to look at the shift from multiple standalone refrigerated units to connected, open-plan multi-bay cold storage, and the operational gains that brings across energy, productivity and usable space. Using a real customer example Dan will show the difference in practice, and cover how a rental model lets businesses access modern, efficient cold storage without the upfront capital outlay.
