Ideal for Food, Agriculture and Cold-Chain Businesses

Food and Beverage Storage

A 40ft reefer provides substantial space for products requiring controlled temperatures, including fresh produce, meat, seafood, dairy products, beverages and frozen foods.

Agricultural Storage

Farmers, growers, exporters and food producers can use refrigerated containers to extend their available cold-storage capacity after harvesting and before distribution.

Pharmaceutical and Temperature-Sensitive Products

Refrigerated containers can provide additional controlled-temperature capacity for suitable pharmaceutical, healthcare and laboratory products. Product-specific temperature requirements should always be verified before use.

Logistics and Distribution

For logistics companies, importers, exporters and distribution centres, a 40ft refrigerated container can provide valuable additional cold-chain capacity at a depot or warehouse.

Restaurants and Catering

Hotels, restaurants, supermarkets and catering companies can use a reefer container as additional refrigerated or frozen storage when existing facilities are insufficient.

Why Choose a 40ft Maersk Reefer?

The main advantage of a 40ft refrigerated container is its combination of large storage capacity and operational flexibility. Instead of investing in a permanent refrigerated building, businesses can use a containerised cold-storage solution that can be installed at a suitable site and potentially relocated when requirements change.

The High Cube design also provides additional internal height compared with a standard-height container, while the insulated construction helps maintain the controlled internal environment.

Maersk’s published information indicates that its 40ft High Cube Standard Reefer provides approximately 67.5 m³ of capacity and supports temperature control from approximately -30°C to +30°C.

Maersk Refrigerated Containers Available in Different Configurations

The Maersk reefer range includes several specialised 40ft High Cube configurations. Depending on your application, options may include Standard Reefer, Magnum Reefer, StarCare™ and Super Freezer models, with different temperature capabilities.
