ClimateCrateâ„¢

Pallet-sized for temperature-sensitive and refrigerated shipping in traditional LTL or box trucks or cold chain storage.

cold chain shipping

ClimateCrate FLEX

Pallet-sized for temperature-sensitive and refrigerated shipping in Sprinter Vans, High Roof Cargo Vans or cold chain storage.

The ClimateCrate Difference

Cold Chain Validated

CBX ClimateCrate containers with active temperature control assure cold chain integrity over a wide temperature range in both warm and cold ambient climates. With the ClimateCrate and ClimateCrate FLEX pallet-sized, temperature-sensitive products can be loaded onto traditional LTL or box trucks in one consolidated load of refrigerated and dry freight pallets. The ClimateCrate and ClimateCrate FLEX are the ideal solutions for less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments of temperature-sensitive products as they greatly reduce the cost and environmental impact of shipping in a traditional reefer.
