This new refrigerated warehouse will receive products prepared in the various Exceldor plants in Quebec. Part of the infrastructure will be used to freeze turkeys that are in demand at specific times of the year.
The building consists of a steel structure with a conventional foundation. The building offers several amenities such as a huge freezer made of 3 blasts, a zone for fresh produce, a loading/unloading dock containing 18 doors, a mechanical room, and office spaces.
EMS has been commissioned to construct the new 135,000 sq. Ft. Building. Ft. for Exceldor, which thanks to Onyx solar's photovoltaic glass has become a sustainable and energy-efficient building.
