How Macha PSM Supports Cold Storage Facilities | Blog No. 77

In the world of ammonia refrigeration, particularly in cold storage facilities, Process Safety Management (PSM) is a critical safeguard for workers, products, and communities, requiring regulatory compliance to ensure safety. That’s where Macha PSM comes in! 

What is Macha PSM?

We are a team of process safety professionals dedicated to helping industrial ammonia refrigeration facilities—like cold storage warehouses—achieve full compliance with OSHA’s PSM and EPA’s RMP regulations. We partner with facilities to build safer operations, reduce risks, and streamline system documentation.

How Macha PSM Can Help Cold Storage Operations

Gap Assessments & Compliance Audits

Macha PSM identifies exactly where your current program stands—and what’s needed to close the gaps. Whether your facility is starting from scratch or preparing for a regulatory audit, we offer clear guidance.

Custom Written Programs & Procedures

From PSM program development to writing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), we tailor documentation to your actual system, not just a generic template.

Mechanical Integrity Support

We help facilities develop effective MI programs, including checklists, inspections, and training to ensure systems are maintained in safe, working order.

Turnkey PSM Implementation

Need help managing it all? Macha PSM can oversee your entire program—building, updating, and maintaining all 14 elements—so you can focus on operations with peace of mind.

PSM Training

We offer online training through our PSM Academy platform. For new operators and those seeking a refresher, we currently offer training on Ammonia Awareness. It is provided in both English and Spanish. CARO preparation training is coming soon! For any questions about training, please email us at academy@machapsm.com.

Why It Matters

Cold storage facilities handle hazardous materials and operate on tight margins. A strong PSM program protects lives while reducing downtime, safeguarding inventory, and can mean the difference between operational stability and regulatory headaches.

If your facility uses ammonia refrigeration, Macha PSM is your partner in safety, compliance, and operational excellence.
