Sustainable transport
Energy-efficient
Thanks to more efficient engines and improved insulation, our latest reefers consume significantly less energy. This leads to lower operational costs and helps reduce the overall environmental footprint.
Less Food Waste
Consistent temperature control throughout the entire transport process preserves product quality, freshness, and shelf life. This minimizes food waste and enhances delivery reliability.
Clean Power, Even at Standstill
Our reefers are equipped with electric propulsion and can, where possible, be powered by solar panels or shore power while in port. This reduces emissions during idle times and lowers reliance on fossil fuels.
Flexible Across Every Mode
Thanks to their Intermodal compatibility, our reefers switch seamlessly between road, barge, and shortsea transport. This enables more efficient logistics, fewer delays, and reduced CO₂ emissions — combining reliability with sustainability at every stage of the supply chain.
Intermodal compatibility
Our reefers are fully compatible with shortsea, road, and barge transport, allowing seamless transitions between modalities.

What are reefers?
Reefers are temperature-controlled containers with their own cooling system, designed to maintain a constant temperature throughout transport. They are used for temperature-sensitive goods, ranging from frozen products to items that need protection from the cold.
Reefers are commonly used for transporting:
- Food products: meat, fish, dairy, fresh produce (potatoes, vegetables, fruit), chocolate
- Pharmaceuticals: vaccines, medicines, laboratory materials
- Flowers & plants: sensitive to temperature changes
- Chemicals: requiring specific temperatures for safe handling
