Temperature Controlled Storage & Distribution

According to research by the Carbon Trust, 90% of energy costs in the Cold Storage sector are accounted for by refrigeration. Having designed, installed, commissioned, maintained and tested all types of refrigeration plants at over 500 of our customers’ warehousing and distribution facilities for almost 50 years, Star have developed a range of sector specific sustainable solutions with multi-temperature capabilities that can meet even the most stringent regulations, reduce energy consumption by as much as 25%, and slash operating costs over a minimum of 20 years, while offering real carbon cuts.

Star has played a vital role in helping our customers grow a healthy bottom line through savings from running an efficient and low maintenance plant. Our solutions are designed to help you deliver the lowest cost per pallet.
