Agriculture & Cold Storage

OVERVIEW

High-insulation, temperature-controlled enclosures with predictable thermal performance and minimal maintenance.

Agriculture and cold-storage facilities require large-span, thermally efficient enclosures that protect produce, livestock, and temperature-sensitive goods while minimizing energy consumption. Light Gauge Steel is ideally suited for these applications: CFS truss systems can achieve clear spans of 12 meters or more without intermediate columns, maximizing usable floor area for poultry sheds, livestock shelters, grain stores, and cold-chain warehouses. SYSOL designs LGS framing systems that integrate seamlessly with insulated panel cladding (PIR/PUR sandwich panels) to achieve high R-values and consistent thermal performance. For cold-storage applications, our engineers detail vapor barriers, thermal breaks at connections, and condensation management strategies to prevent moisture damage and maintain sub-zero temperatures efficiently. The non-combustible nature of steel framing also reduces fire risk — a critical consideration for agricultural buildings storing hay, feed, or flammable chemicals. Poultry and livestock farmers benefit from LGS's resistance to termites, rot, and vermin — common problems with timber-framed agricultural buildings. SYSOL delivers complete framing packages including trusses, wall panels, and purlins, with material quantities optimized to minimize waste and reduce per-square-meter costs.
