An ice storage room (also called an ice silo or ice bunker) is an insulated chamber that holds ice produced by an industrial ice plant for later use. It is fitted with an automatic discharge mechanism — typically a rake delivery system or screw conveyor — that moves ice on demand to dispatch trucks, packing lines, or downstream process equipment.

Praj ice storage rooms use 100–150 mm PUF (polyurethane foam) insulation panels with SS 304 stainless-steel interior cladding. The interior is sloped to drain melt water and fitted with floor heaters to prevent ice bridging.

Capacity is custom-sized to match your ice plant TPD and dispatch schedule — typically 6 m³ of storage per TPD of plant capacity for 24-hour buffer storage.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How big should my ice storage room be?

A common rule is 6 m³ of storage per TPD of ice plant capacity for a 24-hour buffer. Match longer if your dispatch is 48-hour cycles.

What insulation do Praj ice storage rooms use?

PUF (polyurethane foam) panels of 100–150 mm thickness with U-value around 0.16 W/m²·K. SS 304 interior cladding for food-contact rooms.

How does the ice come out of the storage room?

Discharge is via either an automated rake delivery system (overhead bridge with traversing rake) or a screw conveyor at the base. Choice depends on dispatch type — trucks, packing line, or process equipment.

Can the storage room be installed outdoors?

Yes. Praj fabricates weatherproof outdoor silos with double-skin panels and roof drainage. Indoor installations are also common where space allows.

What capacity range does Praj offer?

From 6 m³ for small dairies to 500+ m³ for large fishery, concrete-cooling and snow-park projects. Custom dimensions to match plant TPD.

Do you provide AMC for ice storage rooms?

Yes. Praj AMC covers PUF panel inspection, discharge mechanism service, refrigeration coil cleaning and door seal replacement.
