This refrigerated shipping container is designed for temperature-sensitive cargo. The unit includes a mechanical refrigeration system that maintains interior temperatures within a specified range. The variable temperature control allows adjustment between +25°C and -25°C.
The container is available in two configurations. Mechanically refrigerated containers require an external power source or generator for operation. Non-operational refrigerated (NOR) containers are decommissioned reefers with the refrigeration motor removed, sold as insulated containers for maintaining ambient temperature.
The external dimensions match standard general purpose containers. The interior space is smaller than standard containers due to the refrigeration unit and ventilation requirements.
The container can be used for shipping goods by sea, land, or rail. It can also serve as a mobile cool room for worksites, mine sites, construction sites, film sites, festival sites, catering sites, and large functions.
