Blue Cube Portable Cold Stores, a leading supplier of rental temperature controlled storage solutions for the food, pharmaceutical, logistics and manufacturing industries, has successfully transitioned to both the new ISO9001 and 14001 standards, reinforcing its on-going commitment to quality and the environment.

The major changes to the standards are that it brings Leadership and Continual Improvement (CI) into the heart of an organisation and offers more flexibility than the previous standards.

Steve Blakemore, Blue Cube’s managing director commented: “We are delighted to gain the new ISO standards, which further demonstrate Blue Cube’s ability to meet the changing needs of our customers. It increases competitive edge and broadens business opportunities in line with our ambitious growth strategy. Plus staff benefit from strengthened internal procedures and operating practices.”

Jason Charlton, regional QHSE manager at Blue Cube’s parent company, The Turner Group, who managed the transition process, added: “Blue Cube has undergone significant change over the past two years and adopting the new standard is a true reflection of its recent success and customer-centric culture.”

Established in 2009, Staffordshire-based Blue Cube offers a wide range of technologically advanced, eco-friendly temperature controlled storage solutions including blast freezers, blast chillers, portable cold stores and tempering units. The company provides both standard and bespoke rental systems to suit individual performance and budgetary requirements.

Understanding that flexibility is key, Blue Cube is able to link its portable units to a customer’s existing facility to provide additional production or storage space, and fill unused or odd shaped areas. As well as rental, the company offers lease to buy options and ex-fleet units for purchase.
