PERS LOGISTICS | REFRIGERATED TRANSPORTATION

Temperature-Controlled Logistics and Cold Chain Solutions

Proper planning, suitable equipment and careful consideration of temperature requirements throughout the operation are essential when transporting temperature-sensitive cargo. At PERS Logistics, we organize refrigerated transportation according to your product category, loading and delivery locations, and required temperature range. Our aim is to support the delivery of your cargo under the specified transportation conditions, taking every stage of the logistics process into consideration.

What Is Refrigerated Transportation?

Refrigerated transportation is a logistics service designed to carry temperature-sensitive cargo within a required temperature range. This may include food products, certain pharmaceutical and healthcare products, cosmetics and, where suitable equipment and regulatory conditions are met, specific chemical products. Also known as reefer transport or cold chain transportation, this method requires transportation conditions to be determined in advance according to the nature of the products and maintained throughout the operation.

The same temperature setting is not suitable for every product. Before transportation, the required temperature range should be established in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, customer requirements and applicable regulations. Since chilled and frozen products have different requirements, each transportation plan is prepared according to the specific cargo.

What Types of Products Can Be Transported?

  • Fresh fruits and vegetables
  • Chilled and frozen food products
  • Milk and dairy products
  • Meat, fish and other food products requiring specific temperature conditions
  • Pharmaceutical and healthcare products, subject to transportation conditions and required permits
  • Cosmetics and other temperature-sensitive cargo
  • Selected chemical products, subject to a suitability assessment

Acceptance conditions for each product are assessed separately based on its characteristics, packaging, required temperature range and applicable transportation regulations.

Refrigerated Vehicle and Equipment Selection

Refrigerated vehicles use insulated cargo compartments and cooling units to help maintain the temperature conditions specified for the shipment. Vehicle and equipment selection should be based on cargo volume, weight, packaging type, loading and unloading facilities, and transportation route.

  • Refrigerated trucks and semi-trailer solutions
  • Temperature settings suitable for chilled or frozen products
  • Equipment planning according to loading and unloading conditions
  • Evaluation of tail-lift vehicle options where required
  • Consideration of cargo stacking, air circulation and packaging requirements

Temperature ranges and equipment capacities may vary between vehicles. Therefore, the requested settings should be confirmed in advance in relation to the selected vehicle and operational conditions.

Key Considerations in Cold Chain Transportation

  • Preparing and packaging cargo under appropriate conditions
  • Taking product and vehicle conditions into consideration during loading
