This project involved a large food-related cold storage facility in Georgia featuring a walk-in cooler, walk-in freezer, and conditioned dock area. The build required a durable insulated panel solution capable of holding tight temperatures across multiple climate zones while standing up to demanding daily operations.
A multi-zone temperature-controlled facility that needed one panel system to serve cooler, freezer, and conditioned dock applications.
The wall system had to deliver strong thermal performance across each zone, resist moisture, and stay durable in a heavy-use cold storage environment.
The scope evolved several times, including changes to trim quantities, panel counts, and underfloor heat requirements, so the project needed a flexible partner who could navigate tight production timelines and coordinate delivery.
The PermaTherm Solution
The PermaTherm Solution
PermaTherm provided a customized PermaCore PHF43 Light Mesa Poly ISO insulated panel solution tailored to the facility’s cooler and freezer applications, working closely with the project team through bidding, drawing review, and production.
PermaCore PHF43 Light Mesa was selected for its closed-cell Poly ISO core, which delivers the thermal efficiency needed to hold consistent cooler and freezer temperatures while helping lower long-term operating costs.
The integrated panel system provides a moisture-resistant, durable building envelope suited to demanding cold storage conditions, with a clean finish appropriate for food-related operations.
As the scope evolved, the PermaTherm team stayed highly responsive, quickly revising quotes, updating panel counts, coordinating production schedules, and serving as a single point of contact for the panel scope while staying flexible on delivery timing and logistics.
Results/Outcome
Results/Outcome
The project moved smoothly from planning through production and delivery, supported by strong communication and the team’s ability to adapt quickly to design and scheduling changes.
PermaTherm’s fast turnaround on revised quotes, panel counts, and production scheduling kept the project moving and created a smooth experience for the contractor team.
The completed PermaCore PHF43 system provides a durable, energy-efficient envelope suited to cooler, freezer, and conditioned dock applications.
The operator moved from an evolving plan to a fully installed, performance-ready envelope using one integrated panel system, and the project established a strong working relationship that opens the door to future cold storage collaboration.
