More progress with CA for Daikin

Carrier adds a “Reefer Operational Surcharge” of up to $500 per container.

Brazilian port set a new record for reefer container cargo in April 2024, loading 12,460 TEU, surpassing the previous record of 10,839 TEU set in December 2023.

Innovations in energy-efficient refrigeration technologies and sustainable materials contribute to a greener cold chain, aligning with global green initiatives.

Whilst the traditional perishable traders are withdrawing from the conventional segment, others still see a market for this specialised ship.

Cold chains have come under enormous pressure over the past four years, with operators and customers alike hoping for a more normal trading environment in 2024.

Carrier Transicold has launched its latest reefer machine, dubbed OptimaLINE. The company claims it offers customers an up to 15% saving on annual energy costs and a 40% reduction in CO2 compared with previous Carrier Transicold machines.
