RAL Code
RAL 6018
For whom?
Sussex / Kent vineyards (mobile wine cellar +12 °C/+18 °C), organic farms (cold room for fresh produce), agricultural operations in Conservation Areas (refrigerated tank PDO cheese like Stilton, pre-conditioned vegetables). The green reefer combines cold function + landscape integration required by rural Local Plans.
Key points
- RAL 6018 = yellow-green for landscape integration in Conservation Areas / strict Local Plans
- Temperature range +2 °C to +25 °C ideal for wine and PDO cheese (Stilton, Cheddar)
- Always repainted (never original reefer colour)
- Validated without question in Conservation Areas (vs white reefers sometimes refused in hamlets)
- Compatible with double rear door + pedestrian side door added for access
Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose a green reefer container instead of white in a wine cellar?+
Landscape integration: RAL 6018 or 6005 valid for Conservation Area / strict Local Plan (English wine country = often classified). White RAL 9016 rejected by nearly 60% of vineyard Local Plans (industrial signal). Green + wine refrigeration function = standard high-end mobile cellars since 2020. Aesthetic and marketing ROI for the estate.
How much does a green reefer container wine cellar cost turnkey?+
40' RAL 6005 matte + reinforced insulation 120 mm + cave climate control (+12 °C/70% HR) + glass door + cork floor: £27,800–£43,500. Storage for 4 000-6 000 bottles. Mobile solution with perfect landscape integration for English wine country estates (Sussex, Kent).
Does RAL 6018 lose its cooling function?+
No, refrigeration function unchanged. The Carrier/Thermo King unit operates identically regardless of exterior colour. Slight energy cost increase (~+5-8% vs white in full sun) offset by landscape integration and estate marketing value.
Reefer green validated for PDO cheese?+
Yes, interior paint RAL 9016 HACCP standard + cold generator +4 °C/95% HR adapted. Environmental Health Officer validation required on hygiene dossier. The exterior green is considered a landscape integration colour, with no impact on HACCP compliance. Often requested in traditional PDO cheese dairies (Stilton, Cheddar, Wensleydale).
