Refrigerated containers (reefers) reliably keep temperature-controlled goods at the right temperature – from deep-freezing at −25 °C up to a controlled +25 °C. Coin Container offers 20 ft and 40 ft refrigerated containers<\/strong> as well as 40 ft High Cube, plus insulated containers<\/strong> without a refrigeration unit for passively temperature-controlled applications.<\/p>

Areas of application for refrigerated containers<\/h2>

Food and beverage storage, pharmaceutical and laboratory logistics, flower and plant trade, event catering, and as a mobile cold room when stationary equipment fails. The 10 ft refrigerated container is suitable for compact needs in tight spaces. Insulated containers are chosen where no active cooling is needed but a stable indoor climate is required – for example as a technical or storage room.<\/p>

Temperature and refrigeration technology<\/h2>

A modern reefer controls the temperature to within about one degree and logs the temperature history – important for food and pharmaceutical logistics. For fresh goods, +2 to +8 °C is usually sufficient; frozen goods require −18 °C or colder.<\/p>

20 ft or 40 ft refrigerated container?<\/h2>

The 20 ft reefer holds around 28 m³ of usable refrigerated space, the 40 ft High Cube around 67 m³. 20 ft is suitable for smaller quantities or limited space, 40 ft High Cube for larger volumes of goods and maximum usable height. Insulated containers without a refrigeration unit keep the interior temperature stable for hours and are suitable as buffer storage or for short-distance transport.<\/p>

What should you look for in a used refrigerated container?<\/h2>

Key factors are the temperature range of the refrigeration unit, the condition of the insulation and door seals, and the most recent PTI (Pre-Trip Inspection). Used units with a valid PTI offer the best value for money.<\/p>

Power connection and energy consumption<\/h2>

Operation is usually via 400 V three-phase power at approx. 16–32 A. A reefer draws a noticeable amount of power in continuous operation – this should be factored into site and cost planning.<\/p>

Buying or renting a refrigerated container?<\/h2>

For short-term or seasonal needs, renting usually makes more sense, see Rent a container<\/a>. For permanent use, buying is usually worthwhile, especially for used units with a valid PTI.<\/p>

Prices for refrigerated containers<\/h2>

Refrigerated containers cost considerably more than standard containers; the year of manufacture and the condition of the refrigeration unit are decisive. We deliver across Europe from Hamburg and advise on placement, power supply and – if required – on conversion into a walk-in cold room through our Container conversion<\/a>.
