The doors have opened at Pak’ N Save Rolleston – the South Island’s largest supermarket and we’re proud to have been a key contractor on this major project.
Foodstuffs South Island chief executive Mary Devine said, “This is more than a supermarket – it’s a community hub built to last for generations.”
This 8100sq m $40 million-plus building features the latest IL3-standard design, rooftop solar, and back-up generator – and we’re proud to say that they chose Panel Door Systems to design and manufacture their chiller and freezer doors.
So why are properly designed and manufactured, high-quality chiller and freezer doors so important to a project like Rolleston Pak’nSave?
We’re a food business’s first line of defence
Even minor temperature fluctuations can accelerate bacterial contamination and spoilage. That’s why expertly designed and manufactured insulated panel doors are critical to food safety. To a business like Pak ‘N Save, maintaining the very highest food safety standards is absolutely critical – they really need to trust their freezer and chiller doors. All our doors give them reliable thermal resistance and durable airtight sealing, which keeps humidity and temperature consistent by eliminating warm air infiltration or cold air leakage.
The importance of correct installation
There’s no point in having an effective door panel if it doesn’t open and close smoothly and tightly every time. Misaligned doors can cause uneven cooling, frost buildup, and excessive energy consumption. We design our doors to fit perfectly and to be easy to install – even by other contractors. But at Pak’N Save there were several doors at the butchery which needed our specialised experience and skills to achieve a perfect fit.
