Cold rooms & commercial in Newcastle: local notes
Newcastle's steelworks, chemical plants and textile factories have canteens and stores that rely on refrigeration contractors.

Fridges and refrigeration in Newcastle
Newcastle sits in northern KwaZulu-Natal near the Free State and Mpumalanga borders, with hot summers, cold frosty winters and dust from coal mines and the steelworks. The town is built on heavy industry and manufacturing: a large steel plant, chemical works and many textile and clothing factories, which all need canteen and cold storage refrigeration. Homes in Newcastle's suburbs and the large townships of Madadeni and Osizweni keep fridges and chest freezers working hard, and spaza shops run bottle coolers on long hot days. Cattle farms around Utrecht and Dannhauser need cold rooms for meat. Households mostly need regassing or a new relay, while factories want someone on call.

Typical cold rooms requests in the area come from:
- Households: a small walk-in chiller for game meat or a home catering business
- Factories and cold stores: cold storage rooms for distributors, factories and food processors
- Shops, cafes and supermarkets: a back-of-shop chiller for drinks and dairy at a supermarket or bottle store
