In the realm of cold chain solutions, few companies have a legacy as long-standing and as impactful as KPS Global, a stalwart in the industry for over seven decades. Recognized for their commitment to building and preserving the infrastructure that enables efficient food storage, distribution, and pivotal temperature-controlled environments for critical health applications like vaccine distribution.

Mike Eakins, CEO at KPS Global gives us all the details we need to know about this company that has been revolutionizing the industry on this episode of Cooler News.

KPS Global’s sprawling operations encompass a staggering 750,000 square feet of manufacturing space, spread across five U.S. states – a testament to their capacity and readiness to meet the ever-changing customer demands. They not only offer tangible freight cost advantages but also ensures redundancy protection, keeping customer interests at the forefront. But their reputation is not built on size alone; it’s also their talented team of engineers, designers, and project managers who take pride in each project, ensuring an exemplary experience from design to post-installation.

Perhaps most notably, the company’s innovative spirit is evident in their focus on sustainability and continual R&D, which has recently resulted in three award-winning products and thirty-seven patents.
