Advantages to using a refrigerated shipping container

Tuesday, July 6th, 2010

There are many advantages to utilising a refrigerated shipping container when you are looking to transport goods overseas. Not only are refrigerated shipping containers great for storing general food products and various other goods, they are also very secure and can be locked to prevent anybody from stealing your goods and also to prevent any damage occurring whilst they are in transit.

Refrigerated shipping containers are probably more common than you think and it may surprise you to hear that many of the UK’s largest supermarkets use refrigerated shipping containers to transport various food products from around the world. This is because the storage container has the capability to maintain the temperature which has been set. This typically ranges between +25 and -25 degree centigrade. Through having the ability to regulate and set the temperature, you can ensure that your food products are not going to become inedible before they reach the consumer.

In order to retain the temperature in which it has been set, the refrigerated shipping container has a number of insulating layers which ensure that the temperature remains the same throughout the journey.

When it comes to shipping many foods and beverages, there are certain precautions which need to be taken into consideration.
Produce which perishes quickly when it isn’t stored at the correct temperature and in the correct conditions should not be shipped in standard shipping containers.

Whilst standard containers are suitable for transporting a very wide range of goods, more sensitive items should be transported in refrigerated containers.

Refrigerated containers can store goods at any temperature ranging between 25 and -25 degrees celsius, which make them ideal for a wide range of items.

These containers are available in a range of sizes, from 20 to 40 inches, so you can opt for a size that best suits your requirements and your budget.

When you choose refrigerated containers, you can be sure that your items are safe and secure, as they are constructed from either alloy or steel, and feature a stainless steel or GRP interior. These containers are electrically operated and some containers have the option of sliding doors.

Achieve peace of mind that your goods will arrive at their destination in peak condition, and use refrigerated containers.

Opt for refrigerated shipping containers and don’t throw money down the drain

There’s nothing worth than spending tonnes of money producing and transporting goods, only to find that they arrive at their destination in far less than perfect condition.

This is why it’s important for production, manufacturing or transportation companies to choose the right type of shipping container to transport their goods in.

Many delicate and perishable items need to be transported overseas- these items commonly include food and medicines- which need to be stored in strictly controlled temperatures. If they’re transported in the incorrect temperature, there’s a very high chance that goods will be completely ruined- which not only looks extremely unprofessional but is also a huge waste of money. Nowadays, with most businesses looking to cut or control costs in all areas, it’s well worth ensuring that you choose the correct shipping container.

One of the best things about refrigerated containers is that the temperature can be set anywhere between +25 and -25 degrees Celsius, which means that a wide variety of goods can be contained in them.

Choose refrigerated shipping containers and achieve peace of mind as well as immaculate goods.

The Daikin LXE 10E Refrigeration Machine is the latest container to come from Daikin.

Replacing spare parts is also much cheaper with Daikin, than its competitors, and has a reduced noise level, particularly useful for domestic use.

The particular units hold internal temperatures of between -30 and +30 degrees Celsius (-22 – +86 degrees Fahrenheit). They are also fitted with specialist software which provides optimum airflow for the chilled goods, as well as reducing power consumption.
