How we help supermarkets and retail clients to keep their products fresh
TITAN Containers’ ArcticStore brand is recognised all over the country as the market-leading portable cold storage solution. Our flagship product is the ArcticStore container itself, available in 10ft, 20ft and 40ft sizes.
Capable of maintaining temperatures between -40°C and +45°C, it is the most popular option for supermarkets and retail clients, whose needs for storing foods fall comfortably within this range in most cases.
Inbuilt fresh air exchange helps to improve the shelf-life of perishable goods such as fruit and vegetables, and rapid chilling can be achieved for fresh produce that quickly needs to be frozen. Around 1,000kg of fruit can be cooled to -25°C in two hours.
For even faster chilling, our incredibly powerful ArcticBlast containers are quicker still, cutting times by up to 50%. And when more extreme temperatures are required – such as for storing frozen tuna and other oily fish – our UltraFreezer can chill to temperatures as low as -75°C.

Cold storage case studies
A long-track record in the supermarket and retail industry
TITAN Containers has a pedigree that goes back more than 35 years, and for much of that time we have been supplying cold storage units to commercial clients.
Supermarkets and retailers were among our very first customers and continue to rely on us for fast, flexible, affordable solutions that help them to run their stores efficiently and maintain the correct temperature wherever goods are stored.
We’re here to help you meet seasonal demand, such as Christmas and summer campaigns, and we can work with your facilities management company to ensure that your operations run smoothly – even in times of emergencies or breakdown, when immediate backup refrigeration is required.
Not only do we speak your language when you are placing orders or discussing specifications and logistics, but we can help and advise if you’re new to the £200bn-plus retail sector and need some guidance.
Expanding a single container into a modular cold warehouse
When it comes to cold storage, supermarket chains tend to have the largest volumes of stock to protect. We developed ArcticStore to meet their ever-changing needs by making everything in the collection modular.
This means you can rent a single container if that’s all you need – with the freedom to easily expand by adding more containers to form an ‘Arctic SuperStore’.
This is a modular arrangement of any combination of ArcticStore refrigerated containers in our range, positioned side-by-side (as opposed to end-to-end) to create a single, open-plan cold room. We have created installations as large as 800m2.
This system offers unbeatable flexibility and is unique in the UK.
Tailored cold storage for demanding industries
Meet every regulation and deadline with risk-proof containers – monitored, validated and supported around the clock.
Why rent a refrigerated container from TITAN UK?
Most of our supermarket and retail clients choose to rent from us rather than buy their cold storage containers outright for several reasons – though purchase options are available.
The benefits of renting temperature-controlled solutions include:
- Total flexibility – as your business needs change (seasonal variations, stock availability, market demand, etc.), you can increase or reduce your cold storage capacity as needed. This ability to quickly adapt also helps reduce exposure to unforeseen risk.
- The latest technology is always available – our cost-effective, flexible rental model means supermarket and retail clients can profit from new products and developments without delay or the need to offload redundant inventory.
- Reduced financial outlay – no financing is required when you rent your cold storage solution from us, nor will there be any capital expenditure. Monthly payments help you to spread the cost throughout the year.
- No long-term commitment – most clients in the supermarket and retail sector up and downscale their requirements throughout the year. Why buy cold storage space you may not need for protracted periods?
- Maximum uptime – all our ArcticStore cold storage units are backed up by 24/7 breakdown assistance during your rental period.
