Detailed Description
The 20ft refrigerated container is constructed with high-performance insulation to minimize heat transfer and maintain stable internal temperatures . The integral refrigeration unit, typically from Carrier, Thermo King, or Daikin, operates on a three-phase power supply and is managed through a digital interface for accurate temperature adjustments .
The T-bar flooring system is a critical design feature that allows cold air to circulate freely beneath palletized goods . Combined with corrugated side walls that facilitate airflow, this ensures the entire cargo area maintains uniform temperature. The interior also features a stainless steel lining that is easy to clean and highly resistant to corrosion, essential for food-grade and pharmaceutical applications .
These containers are commonly used for both active shipping and as a cost-effective alternative to building permanent cold storage facilities for on-site warehousing .
