Samskip Multimodal adds 150 Coolboxx reefers to its fleet
Samskip Multimodel takes over new 45ft pallet wide high cube reefers with reduced tare weight for long distance transportations
Samskip Multimodal announces the arrival of 50 brand new Coolboxx at the Rotterdam Shortsea Terminal. These new 45ft pallet wide high cube reefers will be added to the existing Samskip Coolboxx fleet. Another 90 reefers, currently being manufactured in China, are due for delivery January, 2014.
Due to an improved design, using flat composite inner lining, the new reefer containers are lighter, stronger, easier to clean and allow for a smoother (un)loading process. In addition, the tare weight has been reduced from 5,990 kilograms to 5,760 kilograms, further increasing payload capacity. What is more, the used insulation material is 100% non-CFC (Cyclopentane), further increasing our environmentally friendly business.
Finally, a high performance Thermo King Magnum Plus engine has been installed, designed specifically for long distance transportation of deep frozen, frozen, chilled or heated cargo in a temperature range of -40°C to +30°C.
