Reefer Transport
Reefer transport is a specialized service focused on providing constant temperature-controlled transportation for temperature-sensitive goods. Utilizing dedicated refrigeration equipment (such as reefers and refrigerated containers) and precise temperature control technology, it ensures that products are maintained within their specified temperature range during the transit leg of the journey. This is critical for preserving the quality, safety, and freshness of the cargo.
Common product types include:
-
Frozen Food: Ice cream, frozen meat, seafood, frozen pasta, french fries.
-
Chilled Food: Fresh fruits & vegetables, dairy products, chocolate, prepared salads, eggs.
-
Pharmaceuticals: Vaccines, insulin, biologics, clinical trial materials.
-
High-end Chemicals: Certain precision chemical reagents, research materials.
-
Other Products: High-end cosmetics, flowers, certain organic products.
Policies & Regulations
Reefer transport is bound by stringent standards and regulations, as any failure during transit can result in the total loss of an entire shipment.
-
01
Equipment Certification:
The refrigerated containers (reefers) used must undergo pre-trip inspections (PTI) before loading to ensure the refrigeration and ventilation systems are fully functional, with reports provided.
-
02
Pharmaceutical GDP Guidelines:
For pharmaceutical cold chains, compliance with international Good Distribution Practice (GDP) standards is essential. This mandates the highest requirements for facility validation, process control, personnel training, risk management, and documentation.
-
03
Food Safety & Hygiene:
Must comply with HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) principles and the food safety regulations of the destination country/region (e.g., FDA standards).
-
04
Customs & Inspection:
All temperature-controlled goods, especially food and pharmaceuticals, require complete documentation (e.g., Health Certificates, Certificate of Origin, Drug Inspection Certificates) to facilitate fast customs clearance and avoid port delays that could compromise temperature integrity.
