Refrigerated containers - also known as reefer containers - are purpose-built for storing and transporting temperature-sensitive goods. With built-in refrigeration systems capable of maintaining precise temperatures between -40C and +30C, they are the trusted choice for food and beverage, pharmaceutical, floriculture, and biotechnology industries. Willbox supplies refrigerated containers for hire and purchase in 10ft, 20ft, and 40ft sizes, available year-round from our UK depots.
Refrigerated shipping containers - or reefer containers - feature advanced built-in refrigeration systems that can cool or heat the interior to maintain precise temperature settings across a wide range. Multi-temperature settings range from -40C to +30C, with a dehumidification mode capable of maintaining temperatures up to +50C. Thick insulated walls with a sealing-free, hygienic interior minimise heat transfer and make the units easy to clean.
These containers are equipped with advanced monitoring systems to regulate and remotely track humidity and temperature, giving operators peace of mind during transit or static storage. They are compatible with shore power supply (380V/50Hz to 460V/60Hz) and clip-on generator sets (gensets) for uninterrupted operation in off-grid locations. Internal red line indicators mark the correct air circulation level.
Reefer containers are used across food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, floriculture, cosmetics, and biotechnology sectors. Willbox refrigerated container hire and sales options are available flexibly to meet both short-term and long-term requirements.
