40ft Refrigerated Container (Reefer Shipping Container)
The 40ft Refrigerated Container (Reefer Container) is an industry-standard cold chain storage and transport solution designed to maintain precise climate control for temperature-sensitive cargo. Ideal for agricultural produce, meat, seafood, pharmaceuticals, floral goods, and specialty chemical storage, this reefer container delivers reliable temperature control across extreme environmental conditions, keeping goods fresh or frozen.
Engineered with high-density polyurethane insulation sandwiched between corrosion-resistant Corten steel outer panels and food-grade stainless steel interior walls, the unit ensures maximum thermal efficiency and hygienic operation. Equipped with tier-one cooling machinery—such as Carrier Transicold, Thermo King, or Daikin—it provides precise temperature settings ranging from -30°C to +30°C (-22°F to +86°F). Featuring aluminum T-bar duct flooring for continuous bottom-up cold air circulation, double sealed rubber gasket doors, and digital microprocessor controllers, this unit serves as a turnkey cold storage room or intermodal ocean freight container.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
1. Advanced Refrigeration Machinery & Insulation
Precision Climate Control: Microprocessor-controlled refrigeration system maintains constant internal temperatures from -30°C up to +30°C (-22°F to +86°F).
Thermal Insulation: High-pressure injected polyurethane foam insulation (70mm–100mm wall thickness) for minimal ambient heat transfer.
Food-Grade Stainless Interior: Easy-to-clean stainless steel internal wall lining and MGSS/Corten steel exterior panels.
2. Airflow & Security Construction
Aluminum T-Bar Airflow Flooring: Heavy-duty extruded aluminum T-floor channels direct cold air beneath cargo pallets for continuous temperature distribution.
Hermetic Door Sealing: Double swing rear doors equipped with multi-lip EPDM rubber gaskets and stainless steel locking bars to prevent cold air leakage.
Power & Control: 380V/460V 3-phase power input (50/60 Hz) with digital display for real-time temperature monitoring and automated defrost cycles.
