How to Handle Ice Buildup in Cold Storage: Safety, Sanitation, and Sales

Too much ice in a cold storage facility doesn’t mean it’s "working too well" — it means you’ve got a problem. Ice buildup isn’t just inconvenient. It’s a liability. And it’s also one of the easiest pain points to turn into a new contract.

Why Ice Is More Than Ice

Clients Don’t Just Need Defrosting — They Need Strategy

Facility managers are tired of reactive maintenance. What they want is a proactive partner who understands where ice starts, why it spreads, and how to stay ahead of it without constant shutdowns.

Offer a High-ROI Fix

Instead of selling ice removal as a one-off job, pitch it as a risk reduction package: inspection, spot cleaning, airflow mapping, and sensor de-icing. When framed right, this becomes a budget-saving service, not just a clean-up expense.
