Refrigerated containers, also known as reefers, are specialized shipping units used to transport temperature-sensitive goods worldwide.
Reefers can maintain a temperature range between -30°C and +30°C. Just like a household refrigerator, they use an in-built generator to circulate chilled air that keeps cargo at the right temperature — essential for transporting perishable cargo like fruits, flowers, and pharmaceuticals.
In addition to transporting perishables, businesses can repurpose used or non-operating reefer containers for on-site cold storage solutions — a cost-effective option for maintaining temperature-sensitive inventory.

Tare weight refers to the weight of empty containers, while gross weight is the container's weight after loading. Measuring tare weight before loading helps determine the container's weight capacity. Net weight of cargo = Gross weight - Tare weight.
DVT stands for Dual-Voltage Capability. If you are looking for a simple way to enhance your modular carrier transformer's functionality, consider opting for the dual-voltage capability feature. This will allow you to step up the voltage from 230V to 460V with ease. Please note that not all units may have this feature, so it's best to consult with your sales representative to confirm its availability.
