Can your products be installed in cold storage?

Yes. All Damotech rack repair and protection products can be safely and effectively installed in cold storage environments, including coolers, chillers, and even high-humidity blast-freezers. In fact, our solutions are specifically engineered to perform exceptionally well in low-temperature facilities where uptime, pallet availability, and structural reliability are critical. Because cold-storage racking is exposed to harsher conditions than ambient warehouses—such as condensation, rapid temperature fluctuations, tighter aisles, and frequent forklift traffic—operators require repair and protection systems that resist ongoing impact and corrosion. This is precisely where Damotech products excel. 

When required, our kits and guards can be galvanized to provide added resistance to moisture and oxidation. This is especially beneficial in freezer applications where frost buildup or damp conditions could compromise lesser-quality steel. Powder-coating in-house also ensures a durable finish that maintains its integrity even through years of temperature cycling. 

Cold-storage warehouses also face high operational costs, making downtime particularly expensive. Every minute a pallet position is blocked has a financial impact. That’s why the DAMO PRO and our other engineered repair kits are such strong solutions: they restore the original load capacity of your upright while offering permanent protection against future damage, meaning you don’t have to revisit the exact problem location. 

Another significant advantage for cold-storage operators is our installation method. Using the DAMO EASY LIFT, our certified installers can repair a damaged upright in under an hour, with minimal to no unloading required, even inside freezers. This reduces disruption, keeps products at the correct temperature, and avoids the logistical headache of shifting inventory in a sub-zero environment. 

Cold-storage distribution centers are known for their tight timelines, minimal storage space, and heavy forklift activity, all of which contribute to recurring and severe rack damage. Damotech’s engineered, bolt-on repair solutions break the costly cycle, providing operators with a faster, more durable, and more economical alternative to upright replacement.
