Hybrid door solution at Verdonk Broccoli

For the access from outside to the cold rooms, Verdonk Broccoli chose a smart combination. A cold room sliding door on the outside, and a high-speed door with integrated air curtain on the inside. This hybrid solution saves energy, improves stability and increases efficiency during peak hours. Broccoli quality is protected, and the team works faster than ever.

Verdonk Broccoli invests in long-term performance

With over 25 years of experience, Verdonk Broccoli produces and processes more than 3 million kilograms of broccoli annually. To support logistics during harvest peaks and maintain stable storage conditions year-round, they partnered with cold storage builder Javeko for a hybrid door solution.

 

“Javeko understood our needs. We see this as a smart energy-saving investment.”

– René Verdonk

Tailored for peak logistics and constant climate control

During loading times, the cold rooms are used intensively with crates moving in and out. The rest of the day, they need to stay tightly sealed. This two-door solution, an exterior cold storage door and an interior DynamicRoll AIR, provides speed and insulation in one setup.

Exterior cold storage door: durable and automated

The sliding cold storage door on the exterior wall is fully insulated. It opens and closes automatically using radar detection, minimizing the risk of human error and keeping cold air where it belongs.

Key benefits:

  • Thermally insulated, bridge-free panel

  • Opens via motion sensor or remote

  • Horizontal slide minimizes collision damage

  • Reliable under heavy daily use

DynamicRoll AIR: open fast, stay sealed

The DynamicRoll AIR opens at 2.5 meters per second and creates a full-height air barrier on both sides of the opening. This stops cold air from escaping and blocks warm air, dust and insects from getting in. It’s built for high-traffic areas in food logistics.

Why it works:

  • Dual air curtain integrated into both side columns

  • Reduces temperature loss and pressure imbalance

  • Self-repairing curtain reduces downtime

  • Vision panels improve safety during operations

 

The high-speed door is designed with viewing windows for added security.

 

Lower energy bills, better product shelf life

This hybrid setup helps Verdonk save on energy while preserving broccoli under ideal conditions. The high-speed door supports nonstop traffic during working hours. The cold storage door seals the room tight afterward. It’s a practical solution with visible ROI.
