Refrigerated Trucks Help Move Perishable Goods Safely

Lightweight insulated panels help mini trucks carry more goods without increasing vehicle size.

Refrigerated trucks are now very important for moving perishable and short shelf-life goods. Food items, medicines, dairy products, and vegetables need controlled temperature during transport. A normal truck cannot do this work properly. That is why cold-chain trucks are being used more, even by small transporters using a mini truck or pickup truck.

Old-style reefer truck systems use more fuel and energy. They also increase pollution. This becomes a problem in last-mile delivery where vehicles stop many times in a short distance. Small operators using a pickup, Ace Gold, or light truck feel that this costs more. For city delivery, these systems are not always practical.

Customers Can Use Their Own Truck or Van

Rinac offers a simple solution for this issue. Customers bring their own truck or van. Rinac builds an insulated container and mounts it on the vehicle. A suitable refrigeration system is added based on use. This works well for a mini truck, pickup truck, or even an electric truck doing short trips.

Lightweight Body Helps Carry More Load

The insulated body is made using GRP and rigid polyurethane foam panels. The panels are light and stable to hold enough for daily work. This chill Kart is more capable of carrying more loads with efficient fuel efficiency. With these features, users can carry enough cargo with its compact size.

Temperature Remains Stable for Long Hours

The insulation keeps the cold inside. The temperature stays between –15°C and –25°C for about 10–12 hours. Eutectic plates are used, so there are hardly any moving parts. This reduces breakdown risk and makes daily use easier for last-mile delivery trucks.

Optional Features Based on Delivery Needs

Extra options are also available. These include strip curtains, side doors, produce chutes, lights, racks and shelving systems. Multi-temperature use is also possible. Different refrigeration systems can be selected depending on what the truck is carrying.
