Procurement Outlook


Refrigerated transport is a method of transporting shipments (Meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, pharmaceutical products, etc.) with specially designed temperature-controlled trucks or vehicles. The transporting trucks have a built-in refrigeration system that maintains the regulated temperature through the shipment process.

· Isothermal trucks: It has insulating walls, as well as the floor and ceiling inside the merchandise section to control the temperature.

· Refrigerated trucks: This isothermal vehicle manages to reduce the temperature inside the cargo area and preserve it for a long duration.

· Fully integrated refrigerated truck: The truck has a device that cools the cargo box. It reduces the temperature inside the merchandise and keeps it stable between 12 degrees and -20 degrees, depending on the product inside the vehicle.

· Calorific truck: It generates heat and manages to increase the interior temperature (above 12 degrees) and keep it stable for around 12 hours.
