Temporary Cooling Solution for Peak Flower Season at IP Handlers

Due to the enormous demand for flowers during the first few months of the year, IP Handlers needs additional cooling capacity. To bridge this peak period, the company opts for a rental system every year.

Before a product, such as flowers, reaches the end user, it has often traveled a long way. The right conditions during transport, processing, and storage are essential for maintaining quality.

IP Handlers specializes in handling flowers and perishables. The company has been a Coolworld customer since 2014. The flower industry experiences a peak period at the beginning of the year. This is due to holidays such as International Women’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, and Easter.

IP Handlers was looking for a temporary solution during this peak period to:

✔️ Cool a 15,000 m² warehouse containing fresh flowers

✔️ Maintain a constant room temperature of 4 °C
