Flower cold storage utilizes dedicated cold rooms equipped with refrigeration systems to maintain optimal temperature and humidity levels. The cold air produced by the refrigeration system slows down the respiration rate of flowers, while the humidification system minimizes water loss. This combination creates the ideal environment for preserving flower freshness.

The optimal temperature for flower cold storage typically ranges from +10°C to 0°C, with slight variations depending on the specific flower type. Maintaining this precise temperature is crucial, and the cold room refrigeration system plays a vital role in achieving it.

The refrigeration system consists of two main components: the outdoor condensing unit and the indoor evaporator unit. The condensing unit, located outside the cold storage, expels heat, while the evaporator unit, situated within the cold storage, circulates cool air.
