ArcticStore by TITAN Containers is one of the world’s leading brands in the field of containerised cold storage. We have a fast-growing list of pharmaceutical clients all over the world, and have established ourselves as a reliable cold storage partner for industry giants such as AstraZeneca and Sonoco.
Our sophisticated temperature-controlled storage solutions ensure temperatures ranging from below -75°C to +45°C (depending on model). In a highly regulated industry brimming with economic and logistical challenges, we are here to support the pharmaceutical cold chain in every way we can.
More than 100 pharmaceutical clients rely on TITAN’s high-tech ArcticStore units for the safe, secure storage of their products.
All of these cold storage units incorporate cutting-edge technology that helps ensure both product integrity and energy savings. The latest generation of our ArcticStores has best-in-class levels of insulation and new, energy-efficient cooling technology that can reduce power consumption by more than 20% compared to our already energy-efficient 2023 models.
We are committed to removing every conceivable challenge that pharmaceutical clients face when in search of cold storage solutions.
Complete control from anywhere in the world
All ArcticStore models are delivered with a datalogger that allows you to securely connect to our remote performance monitoring and control platform.
Entitled SmartArctic, this easy-to-use and highly intuitive platform was developed by one of the world’s leading specialist software companies and gives you complete control over your entire ArcticStore network from your phone, tablet or PC.
Visibility throughout the cold storage process is greatly enhanced thanks to SmartArctic’s ability to generate detailed logs that can be downloaded as Excel files. These provide a highly accurate record of the temperatures maintained in your containers while products are being stored.
These records go a long way in helping clients and their partners demonstrate complete transparency as products pass through the cold chain.
Purpose-built portable storage with precision temperature control
TITAN Containers’ ArcticStores represent the pinnacle of temperature-controlled portable cold storage. Our units are engineered to the highest possible standards and are built for optimal performance and energy efficiency.
Functional at temperatures of between -75°C and +45°C (depending on model), these units help clients avoid CAPEX issues and many of the cumbersome regulatory concerns associated with permanent installations. They ensure high insulation value and temperature stability while minimising energy consumption through their use of 220V LED lights.
One-hand-opening door design enables easy access, and each unit features an inbuilt lock, internal door release and trapped person alarm for improved security.
Safety and security are paramount across the ArcticStore collection. Our units also feature stainless steel interior panels and aluminium floors, ensuring impeccable hygiene standards for pharma-grade applications.
The units’ highly adaptable interiors enable the use of internal forklift trucks and motorised pallet lifters to enhance operational efficiency.
Introducing the ArcticStore collection – our powerful white knight
Our signature model is the ArcticStore itself, a powerful unit available in 10ft, 20ft and 40ft sizes that can maintain temperatures between -40°C and +45°C.
Used across multiple sectors in every corner of the world, ArcticStores are easily identifiable thanks to their iconic white finish and ArcticStore branding. They provide safe, reliable storage to thousands of clients.
Supporting the ArcticStore is our powerful blast freezer, the ArcticBlast. Boasting multiple cooling units – instead of just one, as is the industry norm for standard cold storage containers – these offer a high level of redundancy in the unlikely event of mechanical issues.
They can also be connected to regular ArcticStore containers to create a highly flexible ‘Blast ‘n’ Store’ system. Similarly, multiple models can be configured in any way you desire to create what’s known as an Arctic SuperStore.
These incredible and versatile modular cold storage warehouses can be split into zones or transformed into large, open-plan cold storage depots. To date, we have installed almost 600 Arctic SuperStores at facilities around the world, and the largest created to date has a floor plan of almost 800m². We can go larger still, and expect to do so in the very near future.
From compact indoor setups to expansive outdoor installations or even connections to existing structures and incorporated second floors, the possibilities with Arctic SuperStores are virtually boundless. These modular units have proven their worth across diverse environments, having been installed on every continent and thoroughly tested in all climates.
Our secret weapon for vaccine and biopharmaceutical clients
Completing the TITAN Containers cold storage picture is the Arctic UltraFreezer, much prized by vaccine clients thanks to the incredible low temperatures it can achieve: -75°C and below.
In fact, our 2020 model was precisely engineered to fulfil the requirements of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, underscoring our dedication to serving critical needs.
Created with the purpose of securely preserving and transporting temperature-sensitive goods, the UltraFreezer is highly adaptable and suits a diverse array of products, including blood, blood plasma, pharmaceuticals, cell cultures, vaccines, and medicines.
Its reinforced structure guarantees resilience even in extreme cold and vacuum conditions. And with extra-high insulation incorporated into every facet, the UltraFreezer ensures a consistent and controlled internal environment.
The inclusion of cascade double compressors enables the UltraFreezer to achieve and maintain extra-low temperatures with unwavering precision. Its specialised door-locking mechanisms ensure an extra-tight seal, safeguarding your valuable cargo.
All of the containers in the ArcticStore collection boast a width of 8ft (245cm) and an external height of 9ft 6in (260cm). As a result, even individual units can be used as standalone cold storage facilities capable of storing significant quantities of product.
