What types of shipping containers does CIMIC supply?

We manufacture and export reefer (refrigerated) containers, dry cargo containers, offshore containers, insulated containers, tank containers, modular containers and special containers such as side-open-door, roll-up-door and open-top units. Used reefer and used dry containers are also available.

Can you build customized OEM/ODM containers?

Yes. We accept tailor-made OEM and ODM orders. Our engineers review your cargo, route and operating environment, then confirm a drawing covering size, door configuration, insulation, refrigeration unit and finish before production begins.

Which certifications and standards do your containers meet?

CIMIC holds a BV (Bureau Veritas) shipping certificate and an ISO quality certificate. Standard units follow ISO container dimensions, and our offshore dry cargo containers are manufactured in line with DNV certification requirements for offshore service.

Which refrigeration unit brands are available for reefer containers?

Our reefer range includes models fitted with Thermo King, Daikin and Carrier refrigeration units, offered in 10ft, 20ft, 20ft high-cube, 40ft and 40ft high-cube sizes depending on the model.

Where are your used containers located?

Our second-hand containers are stored at various ports in China. We share condition details and photos of the specific units on request so you can approve them before shipment.

Where is CIMIC located and which markets do you serve?

We operate from Tianjin and Suzhou, China, about 100 km from the seaport. Our containers are exported worldwide, with Africa, Europe and the Americas as our main markets.

Product Introduction

The outer shell of the insulated box is generally made of high-strength, impact-resistant materials such as plastic and metal to provide good protection and support. Common plastic shells have the advantages of light weight and corrosion resistance, while metal shells are more sturdy and durable. The insulation layer is the core part of the insulated box and is usually filled with insulation materials. Common insulation materials include polystyrene foam (EPS), polyurethane foam (PU), perlite, etc. These materials have low thermal conductivity and can effectively reduce heat transfer, thereby achieving the effect of insulation. The inner liner of the insulated container is generally made of food-grade plastic or stainless steel, which has good hygiene and corrosion resistance and can directly contact food or other items that need to be insulated.

Advantages

Stable Constant Temperature

Through stable temperature and good thermal insulation performance, the insulated container minimizes the impact of external temperature changes on cargo. It effectively prevents goods from deteriorating, rotting, or suffering damage from fluctuations during transit, safeguarding cargo quality and reducing loss rates.

Cost-Effective Solution

When cargo requires uniform temperature retention without active mechanical cooling, an insulated container offers higher cost efficiency. It delivers a lower capital and operating expenditure compared to refrigerated containers while maximizing usable cargo space.

High-Integrity Sealing

To maintain internal thermal conditions and eliminate thermal exchange, precise engineering is applied to the door sealing mechanism, ensuring tight insulation retention and safeguarding product integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the difference between an insulated container and a refrigerated container?

Refrigerated containers actively adjust and control temperature using mechanical cooling equipment, whereas insulated containers provide passive thermal protection—maintaining existing temperatures by keeping warm items warm and cold items cold.

Q: What is the insulation principle of the insulated container?

The container functions via a specialized thermal envelope structure. The walls, ceiling, and floor are filled with low-thermal-conductivity materials, such as polyurethane foam, to minimize heat transfer.

Q: Which goods are suitable for transport in insulated containers?

It is designed for items requiring constant-temperature transport without mechanical reefer units, including fresh produce like vegetables, fruits, flowers, and temperature-sensitive goods.

Q: What materials are used for the shell and inner lining?

The external shell is built using high-strength plastic or sturdy metal for impact protection. The interior liner is made from food-grade plastic or stainless steel to ensure hygiene and direct food contact safety.

Q: Which insulation materials are commonly filled inside the walls?

Common insulation layer materials include polystyrene foam (EPS), polyurethane foam (PU), and perlite, which feature low thermal conductivity to substantially impede external thermal transfer.

Q: What are the payload and tare weight capacities of this container?

The container has a Maximum Gross Weight of 30,480 kg, a Maximum Payload capacity of 28,280 kg, and a Tare Weight of approximately 3,800 kg (±2%).
