Companies wanting to take advantage of new capital allowances should visit the Temperature Controlled Storage & Distribution Exhibition to see the latest technologies for the cold chain sector.
Invest now to benefit from super-deduction
New capital allowances introduced in the recent budget are designed to encourage investment and boost recovery from the pandemic. Under the super-deduction scheme, companies can claim 130% capital allowances on investments in qualifying plant and machinery – including lorries, vans, refrigeration units, electric vehicle charge points and much more – from 1 April 2021 until the end of March 2023. This means that there is no better time for operators in the temperature-controlled storage and distribution sector to invest in the latest technology – and there’s no better place to discover leading-edge solutions than the TCS&D 2021 Exhibition. Taking place alongside the TCS&D Conference and TCS&D Awards, the show returns to the East of England Arena in Peterborough on the 7th & 8th September 2021.
New products on display
A wide range of products and services will be exhibited at TCS&D 2021, including a number of solutions on show for the first time. Cold chain electric vehicle supplier NRG Fleet Services will be exclusively showcasing the Electra e-Cargo SEIV 19t refrigerated electric vehicle at TCS&D 2021.
Transport refrigeration manufacturer Hubbard Products will be introducing its new Uno series of energy-efficient direct-drive diesel refrigeration units at TCS&D 2021. Designed to transport cargo in fresh to deep-frozen temperatures, the units are suitable for medium or large box body vehicles and are available in three capacities: Uno 600, Uno 800 and Uno 1000.
Cold store and freezer PPE manufacturer Goldfreeze will showcase the latest upgrades to its best-selling Hi-Glo® Cold Store & Freezer clothing ranges. “These garments now feature sustainable Dupont™ Sorona® insulation,” explained Tarek Hayat, Managing Director of Goldfreeze, “which delivers unbelievable warmth, maximum comfort and incredible breathability. This is just one element of our commitment to transition to sustainable products and business processes by 2030.”
New solutions being showcased by cold store construction specialist ISD Solutions will include products from the Dutch high-performance door manufacturer, Salco BV, with which ISD recently signed a distribution agreement.
Visitors to the Star Refrigeration stand will be able to experience the company’s new, free app – the Specific Energy Consumption (SEC) tool – that enables owners and operators in the cold storage sector to benchmark their energy consumption against industry standards and UK best practice.
Get behind the wheel
Visitors to the TCS&D Show will have the opportunity to get behind the wheel of a selected range of vehicles – including electric ones – to experience handling and performance, as the show’s Ride & Drive Experience track makes a welcome return.
Covid-secure measures
The show’s organisers will be complying fully with government guidelines to make TCS&D 2021 a Covid-secure event. Despite the end of restricted attendance figures for indoor events being scheduled for late June, TCS&D will still cap the number of visitors to the show in September at 1,000 per day. “In addition, there will be thermal camera checks on arrival, numerous sanitiser stations and wider aisles,” said Martyn Cogan, Exhibition Director.
Exhibitor success
Many exhibitors return to TCS&D due to the show’s ability to deliver high-quality sales leads. For example, commercial paint-spraying specialist, JustSpray, will be exhibiting for the second time at this year’s event. Companies interested in exhibiting their solutions to a targeted audience of cold chain buyers should contact Martyn Cogan on 07545 378793.
