Offshore reefer containers are used for the transportation of refrigerated goods via sea routes. They play a crucial role in the global supply chain, facilitating the movement of perishable goods such as fruits, vegetables, seafood, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature-sensitive products.
The offshore reefer containers are designed to maintain the temperature, humidity, and ventilation requirements of the specific products being transported.They are equipped with refrigeration units, which could maintain the required temperature inside the container.
The benefits of using offshore reefer containers include:
  • Extended Shelf-life: Offshore reefer containers help to maintain the quality and freshness of perishable goods during transportation, thereby extending their shelf-life. This allows for longer transit times and enables goods to be transported over longer distances, opening up new markets and opportunities for producers and exporters. 
  • Cost-effective: Offshore reefer containers offer a cost-effective mode of transportation for perishable goods as they can be loaded directly onto ships and transported via sea routes, which is often more cost-effective than air transportation. 
  • Environmentally friendly: Transportation via sea routes is generally considered to be more environmentally friendly compared to air transportation as it produces lower carbon emissions. Offshore reefer containers also use efficient refrigeration systems that minimize energy consumption and reduce environmental impact.
  • Safe and Secure: Offshore reefer containers provide a safe and secure means of transportation for perishable goods, protecting them from theft, damage, and contamination.

        ​An offshore refrigerated container is a type of container used to transport perishable goods that require temperature-controlled storage. These containers are equipped with refrigeration units that can be powered by electricity and can keep the temperature inside the container within a specific range.
          Offshore Refrigerated containers are commonly used to transport fresh and frozen foods such as fruits and vegetables, meat, dairy products, and seafood. They are also used to transport pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and other temperature sensitive products.
           Offshore Refrigerated containers are designed to be optimized for preserving perishable goods, with features such as insulation, temperature control systems, and ventilation to maintain the desired temperature and humidity levels. Some refrigerated containers are also equipped with a remote alarm system, which monitors the temperature, humidity, and other environmental factors in the refrigerated container in real time through remote communication technology and sends out an alarm signal when an abnormal situation occurs. The refrigerated container remote alarm system can not only protect the quality of refrigerated items, but also prevent unsafe conditions of refrigerated containers, such as abnormal temperature increase, refrigerated container door opening, etc.
         Offshore refrigerated containers are a regular product of TLS. It complies with DNV2.7-1 / EN12079 / CSC certificate and can be applied to multimodal transport. Welcome clients to customize in batches.

Instructions for additional equipment related to refrigeration units such as CA, MA and humidity controllers.
  • CA is short for Controlled Atmosphere.  It is an auxiliary facility that controls the levels of CO2 and O2 in the container.  The container should be airtight and have a nitrogen generator and source of carbon dioxide (such as a carbon dioxide compressed air bottle or scrubber). In both cases, the oxygen content is controlled by ventilation.
  • MA stands for Modified Atmosphere.  This means that the container has an interface into which the mixed gas is injected before shipping.  During transport, the air composition in the container is no longer controlled.
  • Humidifier can use a water source or condensate from an evaporator to humidify the circulating air. Dehumidification can be achieved by evaporative heating devices or chemical reactions. The humidity inside the chamber can only be adequately controlled if both dehumidification and humidification are available.
