Refrigerated trucks or reefers are used to
transport temperature-controlled freight.
Distributors of perishables have to ensure their product's life during
transit, including food products and medical supplies. Freight carriers
who offer refrigerated trucks to shippers meet this special requirement.
Refrigerated trucks use a mixture of air containing oxygen and an
increased level of nitrogen to keep the products they are transporting
at their required temperature. This ensures that the produce or other
products will remain fresh and safe when it arrives at its destination.
Hospitals and medical laboratories generally cannot accept shipments of
certain medicines which have not been properly shipped. A degree
above or below the specified temperature can harmfully affect the
shipment. This also applies to foods which have been shipped to
restaurants, hotels, hospitals, or other institutional kitchens. New
technology is continually being developed to provide greater control of
reefer temperatures. Some specialized units even provide a continuous
record of the cargo temperatures from loading to unloading.
Refrigerated trucks are also used to transport plants for nurseries. The
distribution
company that you contact can offer more information on the perishable
items that
they will and can transport.
