Question:

We have been asked by a customer to quote for a new salting chiller room. Location: Lancaster. We are thinking we could organise the cold room then just buy measured salt walls however we would appreciate your recommendations/suggestions. Thank you.

Replies:

1. I’m sure they’ve already heard of this company – https://www.saltan.co.uk/butchers but I think they operate in ambient rather than chilled environment (as that’s the way the meat is preserved). The London restaurants use these with all the lighting etc as you come in – I’ve never heard of a salted chilled room – but there is always a first!
