Trane’s First Cold Store Rental Project in the Middle East
Background
Trane Dubai delivered a cold storage rental solution for an industrial customer in Dubai, marking the company’s first cold store rental project in the Middle East and Africa region. The project provided reliable storage for plant-based additives and chemicals at -18°C, ensuring operational continuity for a fertiliser manufacturing facility.

The storage needed to maintain temperatures as low as -18°C to preserve plant-based additives and chemicals. As Trane’s first cold store rental in the MEA region, the project also demanded flawless execution under time-sensitive conditions.
