Can I use a refrigerated container to freeze unfrozen product?

No, reefers (refrigerated containers) are only holding freezers and will maintain the products temperature only. Product needs to be at the required temperature when packed into the reefers.

How accurate is refrigerated container temperature control?

Temperature can be adjusted and controlled to 0.5°c.

Who will install and setup the refrigerated container when it is delivered?

Almar can assist with technical on-site installation of the reefer containers (refrigerated containers) should this be required.

How can I maintain a refrigerated container?

The following basic steps can be taken to keep your refrigerated container in good working order:

Daily: Keep a twice daily record of the temperature on the control panel to ensure any variations are noted. Make sure the container is switched to a manual defrost cycle before entering the container.

Weekly: Wash out the condenser coil with a hose and ensure it is free of any debris.

Monthly: Ensure that no ice build-up is allowed to develop within the container – especially on the floor area and within the T Bar flooring – this may disrupt the airflow within the container and cause temperature fluctuations. A complete clean out and removal of ice may be called for.

Keeps Fresh Produce at the Right Temperature.
