Key players in the global cold chain join the Move to -15oC, committing to its mission to slash carbon emissions for frozen food

The Move to -15°C initiative aims to modernize frozen food storage practices, shifting from the longstanding -18°C standard to a slightly warmer -15°C. Backed by research demonstrating negligible impact on food safety, this change promises significant environmental benefits and cost reductions across the supply chain. Nomad Foods, a major advocate, reported a 10-11% reduction in freezer energy usage without compromising product quality. Support spans the industry, including Danish Crown, the American Frozen Food Institute, and global logistics leaders like Indicold, Blue Water Shipping, and Constellation Cold Logistics. Seacube Container Leasing, Orbcomm, and Seafrigo also recently joined, highlighting growing industry commitment to sustainable cold storage solutions.
