Metro Barrie: Showcasing Norbec’s Cold Storage Expertise
Located at 640 Mapleview Drive East and completed in 2025, Metro Barrie exemplifies Norbec’s capability in customized walk-in solutions for grocery and retail applications. Designed with durable materials to withstand heavy use, Norbec solutions meet all the needs of a grocery store: customer facing coolers, dairy coolers, meat freezers, storage spaces.
High-Performance Panel Systems
At the core of the project, Norbec’s 4-inch Norex-S insulated panels ensure top-tier thermal performance across all refrigerated zones. These 26-gauge galvanized steel panels, finished in smooth Igloo White with a Silkline (striated) profile, combine efficiency with a modern and clean appearance.
Heavy-Duty Door Systems for Demanding Grocery Environments
Norbec provided specialized door solutions tailored for the operational and safety needs of a grocery store. This included the CL-1750 sliding freezer doors with full hardware and kickplates for durability in high-traffic areas, as well as PL-1750 and OL-1750 swing doors for walk-in coolers, ensuring reliable temperature control.
