Cold Storage in the Spotlight – Join Us at Multimodal 2025

Last year at Multimodal, our Technical Director Paul Waldeck sat down with the team behind the event to share insights on the future of industrial and temperature-controlled construction. If you missed it, you can watch the full interview below. Paul discussed the rapid evolution of cold chain logistics, the growing need for sustainable infrastructure, and the unique challenges facing cold store developers today.

Twelve months on, the conversation has only intensified. Demand for cold storage has surged—driven by shifting consumer behavior, online grocery growth, pharmaceutical needs, and increasing scrutiny on energy efficiency. It’s clear we’re in the middle of a cold storage boom.

This year, Paul returns to the Multimodal Theatre with a new perspective and a powerful new partnership. On Wednesday 18th June, 3:15PM – 4:00PM, Paul teams up with the Cold Chain Federation to deliver a session titled:

“Trends in the UK Cold Storage Market”

This 45-minute panel will explore:
1. The key forces driving current investment in cold storage.
2. The innovations shaping more sustainable, efficient and future-ready facilities.
3. What developers and operators need to consider in an era of shifting regulation and rising demand.

As one of the UK’s most trusted cold store construction specialists, Ambrey Baker will provide a contractor’s view on where the market is heading—and what clients need to build to stay ahead.

Whether you’re a developer, operator, or stakeholder in the cold chain, this session is essential for anyone seeking to understand the new standards of cold storage in 2025 and beyond.

We look forward to seeing you there.
