Why a wide-bodied coldstore module saves money!


Dawsongroup Temperature Control Solutions supply wide-bodied holdover freezer and chiller modules as standard because our customers’ require a picking aisle for efficient stock handling. Stock that does not move costs money so whether raw material, awaiting to go to the production line, or finished goods awaiting dispatch, you need easy access.

Ask yourself the following questions:

  • How many labour hours do you pay each week on moving around stock to find the right batch?
  • How many times do you unload the freezer looking for that missing batch?
  • How many times is production held up awaiting raw materials?
  • How many customer complaints do you get because a batch was delivered light / wrong?

This does not happen every day, you hope, but can you honestly say none of the above applies?

From April the National Living Wage increases to £8.91 per hour, plus 23- & 24-year olds now qualify, so whether you employ directly or use an agency, what is the true hourly rate after factoring in Employers NIC contributions, holiday pay, bank holidays, PPE, training etc?

The majority of our customers use us because we are market leaders but even when margins are under real pressure, they do a simple calculation of the rate differential in terms of hours to justify the decision.
