Reefer cargo managed around product integrity

Typical reefer commodities

We support cargo that requires stable chilled or frozen conditions throughout the ocean movement.

• Fresh and frozen food
• Meat and seafood
• Dairy and processed products
• Pharmaceutical and controlled-temperature cargo

Shipment controls

Each request is reviewed for temperature range, ventilation, humidity, packaging, transit exposure and documentation requirements before booking.

Equipment planning

20ft and 40ft reefer equipment is arranged subject to carrier availability, commodity acceptance and route capability.

Information beyond the temperature setting

Provide the product, packing method, gross weight, loading temperature and any ventilation or humidity requirements. Explain whether the cargo is fresh, chilled or frozen and disclose any treatment or monitoring requirements. Settings must come from the responsible cargo party; they should not be guessed from a commodity name.

• Product, packing method and loading condition
• Required temperature, ventilation or humidity settings
• Gross weight, route and cargo-ready date
• Any monitoring, treatment or record requirements

Plan the handovers

Review loading arrangements, power availability, terminal cutoffs and destination collection with the operating team. Equipment and routing must suit the product requirements. Any monitoring, records or specialist handling obligations should be expressly agreed before booking. Identify the person responsible at each handover and the receiving site’s availability. The quoted scope should make clear which power, records and special-handling arrangements are included; do not assume that a general reefer booking includes every monitoring service.
