Approved Fridge Van Converters

Cold Consortium are approved refrigerated van converters to every van manufacturer. The best vans deserve the best fridge conversions.

Take a Peak at a Few of our Conversions...

We have been converting vans to refrigerated chillers, fridges and freezers for well over 20 years… it’s this longevity that gives our customers the reassurance of rock solid support long into the future. To view our complete portfolio click here.

Quality Matters

We ONLY convert vans into refrigerated & hygienic vehicles and we’ve been doing it since 1994 (longer than just about everyone else) so we know a thing or two about building a high quality chilled van.

This means you get the freedom to purchase the perfect van from the entire market place at the best possible price (no matter if it’s brand new or second hand with 100,000 miles on the clock) BEFORE it’s converted into a chilled vehicle.

That’s a lot less risk for you and much more control!

Ultra-Fresh as Standard!

We’re the only refrigerated van manufacturer to use Ultra-Fresh Antimicrobial Protection as standard in each and every van conversion!

Likewise, the interior of each and every conversion we build is finished in environmentally friendly epoxy resin and FOOD-SAFE sealants with mould inhibitors making it incredibly quick and easy to clean.

Quality fridge, freezer & hygienic van conversions that stand the test of time

We're not one of those companies that disappears in the blink of an eye... We've been building hygienic and chilled van conversions for well over 20 years, making us your perfect refrigerated van partner. We provide unlimited possibilities to create outstanding chilled vans.

EVERY CHILLED VAN IS BUILT TO THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE STANDARDS

Each and every van is perfectly finished

At Cold Consortium we pride ourselves in our quality of workmanship.

For example, all of our chilled van conversions have seamless edges to give a bath-type finish as standard, unlike many of our competitors who use silicon sealants, which over time will degrade and allow water ingress.

We have just taken delivery of our 8th Cold Consortium fridge conversion. The quality, workmanship & after sales of Cold Consortium is second to none which is why we wouldn't think of going anywhere else and cannot recommend them highly enough. Carousel Distribution

Chris Allen,

Owner, Carousel Distribution

My brother Andrew and myself run 2 wholesale food service companies, distributing fresh fruit, vegetables, and dairy products throughout Scotland to the retail and catering trade. We have dealt with Ian and Barbara at Cold Consortium for the last 10 years, with nearly 30 vans being kitted out by them.

Vans have been bought from various garages over the years but one thing never changes... the level of quality and service The Cold Consortium give us is absolutely second to none.I think the fact we travel nearly 400 miles to use them is testimony enough to how high we rate Cold Consortium, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
