Large cryogenic cargoes,
Long-distance transportation
Frozen foodstuffs
Dairy products
Vegetables and fruits throughout the cold chain.
Transportation of vaccines and medicines.

We support customized sizes up to 12,000mm/39.37ft in length due to the limitation of shipping container length. We offer CKD case delivery which consists of modularization for fast installation and lightweight material, which usually takes only 1 day to install.

Specificities&Benefits

We use FRP skin XPS foam panel as the main structure, which can bring better thermal insulation and crashproof performance for the whole. Our semi-truck body is impact-resistant, not easy to crack, and not easy to scratch, it is the best high-performance material.

Customized Thickness: FRP foam panels can be customized with different thicknesses to meet better cold storage needs.
Multi-temperature zones: SEMI trailers can be converted into multiple temperature zones and can transport different refrigerated cargoes.
Customizable Insulation Foam panels: PU, XPS, and other high-strength insulation foam are available.
Long life: ordinary trailer trailers are expensive to manufacture, and if they have a short life span, then it will increase the cost. Our structure has a service life of up to 10 years
Abundant kits: we provide abundant kit options and solutions for cold storage systems.

Highly customizable: We offer body customization and can customize different sizes of the body as per the requirement.
Exquisite appearance: the surface of the trailer body is made of an FRP panel with a flat surface.
Fast loading and unloading: We can customize different sizes of side doors and make loading and unloading faster and more efficient.
Lightweight: using FRP skin and XPS foam, the total weight is much less than the aluminum body, which can improve transportation efficiency and reduce cost.
Excellent thermal insulation: Our trailer body can achieve excellent thermal insulation in the range of -20℃ to 50℃.

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)

What are the different types of refrigerated trailers?

Refrigerated semi-trailers are common cargo trucks, they have different material structures and features, sizes as well as temperatures, here are the main types:

1. semi-trailers with multi-temperature zones: such trailers have multiple compartments which are separated by plywood and have their own temperature controllers, each of them maintains a different temperature in each zone and is suitable for transporting products that require different temperatures.

2. single temperature semi-trailer: this is the most common type, the difference between him and multi-temperature trailers is that he only has a temperature maintenance system, the whole box is kept at a fixed constant temperature, he is suitable for large-scale transportation of goods that require the same temperature.

3. Thermal insulation semi-trailer: many products need to control the temperature, to prevent the temperature is too low leading to solidification, such as liquid and other food, if the temperature is low will produce condensation, the packaging will produce rupture, the taste will lose a great sense of experience.

4. Specialized pharmaceutical trailers: these semi-trailers are mainly used for the transportation of medicines, his temperature control requirements are even higher, and can be precise temperature control, can ensure that the activity of vaccines and medicines are not destroyed, and can always be in the optimal state.
