United States Cold Storage breaks ground on Phase 2 of public refrigerated warehouse
This will be USCS’s second facility integrating both a conventional and automated design.
United States Cold Storage (USCS), Voorhees, N.J., broke ground for a Phase 2 addition at a public refrigerated warehouse in Lebanon, Ind.
The operation opened in 2009 with 6.5 million cubic feet of refrigerated and frozen storage and 24,300 pallet positions. Officials expect by next fall to complete the 5.1 million-cubic-foot addition with 16,000 more pallet positions and 10 additional shipping dock doors. The facility handles a wide range of refrigerated and frozen products held at temperatures from -20°F to 60°F. A portion of the addition will be served by an automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS). This will be USCS’s second facility integrating both a conventional and automated design.
