Admin

September 23, 2024

Ever wondered how some seasonal fruits from across the world are available at the supermarkets near you throughout the year? Not only fruits or vegetables but the demand for fish, meat and other food products are readily met by the market these days. The global food market makes this possible greatly with the usage of refrigerated containers, also known as reefer containers. These containers play an important role in maintaining the safety and quality of perishable goods during transport. At Container Solutions, we understand the role of these containers in preserving food integrity throughout the supply chain. In this blog post, we will discuss in detail how they benefit on several levels.

The Prime Factor to Food Safety: Temperature Control

Just like we store perishable food in refrigerators at home, the key to keeping these types of food for a long time is of course a temperature-controlled environment. At Container Solutions, we ensure that our refrigerated containers provide a controlled environment that significantly reduces the risk of foodborne illnesses. Now let us check how these containers benefit by keeping precise temperatures.

  • Slows down bacterial growth as microorganisms can’t survive or multiply in certain temperature ranges.
  • Preserve nutritional value and provide the same benefits as fresh products.
  • Extend shelf life so that seasonal products and food items from across the world reach the needy.
  • Guarantees product quality ensuring the food is safe to consume.

In addition to improving productivity, this flexibility also provides new opportunities for food distributors and retailers. Refrigerated containers are specially designed to meet the needs of every food type, like keeping the leafy greens fresh, conserving the flavour of certain rare fruits, or keeping the consistency of frozen food etc.
