We apply decades of experience to develop optimum reefer solutions for every type of frozen cargo. We understand how to freeze, package, stow and ship your goods to guarantee quality on delivery. We can even monitor the shipment 24/7 so you know your product is in safe hands.
Our tailor-made frozen food services from Belarus to China reliably connect local producers and distributors. On this route, we use Odesa and Chornomorsk ports in Ukraine.
Key factors that affect the shipment of frozen cargo
- Freezing
Freezing preserves the quality of frozen food by inhibiting micro-organisms and slowing most enzyme activities and oxidative processes. Fast and complete freezing, leads to superior product quality
- Thawing
Repeated thawing and freezing is detrimental to product quality. Our reefer containers can facilitate precise temperature management to avoid temperature fluctuations
- Packaging
Appropriate packaging can protect food from freezer burn, bacterial contamination and the effects of oxygen. Packaging material should be impermeable to water, vapor, oxygen, volatile odors and substances
- Pre-cooling
Proper pre-cooling of containers prevents surface thawing, freezer burn and condensation
- Stowing
Frozen cargo should be stacked as a solid block to allow air to circulate around the periphery of the load. For stowage of cargo in containers with flat-sided walls, slightly loose stowage is necessary to facilitate air circulation
- Ventilation
The fresh air vent must always be closed tight and sealed to avoid unwanted heat from entering for all frozen cargo shipments
