What is a Reefer Container?

And what are they used for?

A Reefer Container also known as a Refrigerated Container is a temperature controlled solution used to store or transport frozen or cold goods, perishable items or goods that require temperature control.

A Reefer Container is a useful solution for the storage and transportation of goods that require temperature control such as foods, perishable goods and pharmaceuticals. The Reefer Container will maintain a set temperature during transit for shipping, as well for as static storage on site.

A Reefer Container can be powered by a Clip-On-Genset which is mounted to the container, or other sources of 3 phase power. They can also be powered using our Smart Energy Systems, our efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to diesel generators, which are perfect for off-grid scenarios. Learn More.

Why are Reefer Containers So Useful?

Broad Temperature Range

A Reefer Container can sustain a temperature in the range of -35°C to +30°C (-30°C to +30°C for Offshore Reefers).

Chilled & Frozen

A Refrigerated Container can maintain a frozen or chilled temperature to accomodate various cargo types. A Dual Temperature Reefer can do both at the same time!

Portable

Our Reefers are designed to be easily transported, making them ideal for delivering temperature dependent cargo such as food or medicine.
