refrigerated containers
Chilled shipping units
Refrigerated containers are large insulated shipping units with built-in cooling systems, used to transport perishable goods at controlled temperatures.
In international trade, they're called reefers: The port handles thousands of refrigerated containers carrying produce from South America.
They maintain cold chains for food, pharmaceuticals, and other temperature-sensitive cargo across ocean voyages and overland routes.
