Our refrigerated “reefer” units come with genuine OEM refrigeration machinery, parts and full support, so you get top-tier performance and reliability. Whether you need short-term hire or long-term ownership, our reefers including models capable of –30 °C (with “Super Cold” units down to –40 °C), give you temperature-controlled storage for perishables, pharmaceuticals or cold-chain cargo.
We supply a range of container sizes to suit different applications. The most common options are 6M|20’FT and 12M|40’FT shipping containers, available in both standard and high cube configurations. Our team can recommend the most suitable size based on your storage, transport or operational requirements.
A 6M|20’FT container is ideal for smaller storage requirements or sites with limited space, while a 12M|40’FT container provides significantly more storage capacity for larger projects or commercial operations. If you’re unsure which option is right for you, we’ll gladly recommend the best fit.
