Reefer container
Reefer container (refrigerated container) — a container with a refrigeration unit maintaining a set temperature for transporting perishable goods (food, pharma, flowers). It requires a power connection on the vessel and at the terminal.
Reefer transport is more expensive than regular transport and requires temperature control along the entire route. A breakdown of the regime is a risk of spoilage and claims.
We will arrange reefer transport and the clearance of temperature-sensitive cargo.
