The solution

CST Pharma needed to find a company that was experienced in installations for pharmaceutical storage facilities. Another consideration for CST Pharma was the carbon footprint of the system.

When CST Pharma found EcoCooling installer, Celsius Design, it was impressed with the company’s industry expertise and environmentally friendly solutions. Celsius’s knowledgeable team worked with CST Pharma to design a suitable temperature control system that incorporated EcoCooling’s low energy, evaporative cooling technology.

The resulting system consisted of four EcoCooling units that were each controlled from zonal panels.

The control system installed was fully programmable to allow the systems to be set at different temperatures at different times. This enabled CST Pharma to make use of overnight free cooling (ventilation only) during the summer months, which helps to keep temperatures below 25C. What’s more, this ensures that running costs are kept down to a minimum.

The EcoCooling units were installed by Celsius during normal working hours with no site downtime and minimal disruption.

The result

CST Pharma’s warehouse was fitted with a system that enabled it to store medicinal products within the required regulatory temperatures. This ensured that the company’s expansion into medical product storage at its Aldridge warehouse was a success, enabling them to offer the service to its customers. Being a low energy solution, CST Pharma also saved on both the installation and running costs compared to traditional refrigerant solutions.
