A Thermo King Solution for every Cold Storage Challenge

Plus, if pharmaceutical storage and distribution is required, then GDP (Good Distribution Practices) certification is also a must – to demonstrate the controls accuracy, datalogging, and temperature mapping is in place to rigorously protect product integrity. it’s no wonder then, that every customer demands a unique mix of cold storage technologies.

At Thermo King, we’ve long recognized the necessity of aligning innovation in our cold storage offering with ever-evolving customer needs:

• Our cold storage capabilities extend from ultra-cold to best-in-class temperature power consumption vs capacity
• The range also includes highly modular refrigerated storage containers in sizes 10, 20 and 40ft length
• These are products that are both portable and super insulated, using highly efficient refrigeration units designed for global cold chains

The result is a varied and broad product offering that’s designed to enhance our customers’ performance today, while providing a dynamic platform for the future. Below, we highlight some of the key technologies to be found within our cold storage solutions:

CFF: the ideal fit for your refrigerated products

Container Fresh Frozen (CFF) is perfect for those fleets needing best in class temperature control between -30°C and +30°C. CFF also features improved humidity control and industry-leading efficiency. Attributes that in combination help ensure CFF offers an impressively low total cost of ownership.

Magnum Plus: Ultra-fast pulldown between -40°C and +30°C

For those customers transporting both hot and ultra-cold cargoes with frequent door openings, Magnum Plus offers fast pulldown and low energy consumption. It also reaches lower temperatures than CFF, taking temperature down to as much as -40°C – which makes for ideal conditions when shipping and storing fish, shellfish and premium ice cream.

In addition, the Magnum Plus fits all insulated containers – even 53ft full pallet wide containers – and can extend the life of your reefer container with extended cooling capacity. In short: if you’re looking for a unit with high cooling capacity and fast pulldown to protect delicate foodstuffs, then Magnum Plus is the premium choice.

SuperChiller: Multifunctional champion

The SuperChiller is a multifunctional unit that operates in both ultra-low and positive temperatures. Its operational range of -60°C to +10°C makes it applicable to a wide variety of products. Like the Magnum Plus, it can also store and keep fish, shellfish and premium ice cream without difficulty. Plus, the SuperChiller is capable of protecting food and pharmaceuticals at positive temperatures. It’s therefore a proven way to protect vaccines, active pharma ingredients, blood plasma and biological components. All of which makes it the standout technology forversatile fleets routinely handling a wide range of fresh and frozen goods.

SuperFreezer: when ‘cold’ isn’t cold enough.

SuperFreezer is our coldest cold storage unit yet. With a temperature range between -70°C and -10°C, the unit operates exclusively in the negative and is capable of falling below the eutectic point. That means the unit operates below the temperature at which all biological activity comes to a complete halt: all water in the cells of the product is frozen, and all microbial decompositions stop:

• At ultra-low temperatures, it’s possible to transport or store foodstuffs for essentially an infinite amount of time
• This can be done without losing that first-day freshness, taste or texture
• Such a capability is especially useful for fish and shellfish, such as sashimi tuna, snow crab, salmon, etc…

SuperFreezer’s real strength however comes in its versatility. It can operate within a great number of industries, from food to pharma. The unit is capable of transporting mRNA vaccines and blood plasma, but can also be used to verify and validate electronics, automotive and aviation parts, transporting hazardous chemicals, and so much more. A real master of all ultra-cold trades.
