Chilled cold rooms for medicines – Biomax, Bestovje

For Biomax, MB Frigo Grupa delivered: 2 chilled cold rooms for medicines.

About the project: Biomax, Bestovje

Medicines stored in the cold chain must always remain within the prescribed temperature range, with conditions monitored and recorded. A correctly sized cold room and refrigeration unit are the basis for compliance with Good Distribution Practice.

Solution: cold rooms

Cold rooms are built for the chilled range (storing fresh goods, typically around 0 to +8 °C) or the frozen range (storing frozen goods, typically −18 °C and below). Insulated panels, cold-room doors and a refrigeration unit keep the temperature stable regardless of outdoor conditions and how often the door is opened.

What this means for designers and investors:

• Unbroken cold chain – goods stay within the prescribed temperature range.
• Made to fit the space – dimensions, doors and equipment adapted to the building.
• Energy efficiency – quality insulation and a correctly sized refrigeration unit.
• Service and maintenance – support from MB Frigo Grupa after commissioning.

Why MB Frigo Grupa

Since 1981, MB Frigo Grupa has designed, manufactured and installed refrigeration equipment – from cold rooms and refrigeration units to custom systems – and provides service and maintenance. Its own Arctic Line programme is developed and manufactured in Croatia, which means shorter lead times and easier support.

Frequently asked questions

How is temperature traceability ensured in cold rooms for medicines?

Cold rooms are equipped with a system for continuous temperature measurement and recording, with alarms in case of deviation. Before commissioning, temperature mapping is carried out to confirm that conditions are uniform throughout the space.

What is the difference between a chilled and a frozen cold room?

A chilled room stores fresh goods above zero, a frozen room stores frozen goods, typically at −18 °C and below. They differ in insulation, doors and refrigeration unit.
