20′ Reefer Container – Used Refrigerated, 580 156-8

A used 20-foot (6-metre) refrigerated container, known as a “reefer”, is the ideal choice for anyone who needs to maintain stable temperature conditions for the transport or storage of sensitive goods. This container meets the strict requirements of international maritime transport – it is of Cargo Worthy (CW) quality, meaning it is structurally fully qualified for safe transport and storage. It has a valid CSC label, so it is immediately ready for use in international transport. Delivery of the container to Karlovy Vary and anywhere else in the Czech Republic is free of charge upon fulfilment of the conditions stated below!

Dimensions, Load Capacity and Volume of the 20-Foot Reefer Container

The standard external dimensions of a 20-foot refrigerated container are approximately 6.06 m in length, 2.44 m in width and 2.59 m in height. Inside, it provides a space with a volume of around 28 m³ and a useful load capacity of up to 27 tonnes (exact values may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer). Thanks to these parameters, it is suitable both for storage and for the transport of larger quantities of temperature-sensitive goods.

Cargo Worthy Quality – A Guarantee of Safety

A used refrigerated container of Cargo Worthy quality is tested and certified for international transport. This means that despite possible cosmetic imperfections (scratches, rust, different colour), its full functionality, tightness and strength for the protection of stored goods is guaranteed. Included is a valid CSC label, which confirms its suitability for worldwide transport. Your goods and laboratory samples will be kept in maximum safety and under constant temperature control.

Flexible Temperature Range – from -25 to +25°C

The reefer container allows the temperature to be maintained and precisely regulated within a range from -25°C to +25°C. This means it is suitable not only as a freezer box, but also as a refrigerator or a temperature-controlled space – depending on current needs. Electronic temperature regulation ensures stable conditions even during long-term storage.

Ideal Solution for the Transport and Storage of Laboratory Samples

A used 20′ reefer container, i.e. a refrigerated shipping container, represents an efficient and safe solution for the transport and storage of a wide range of laboratory samples. Thanks to the ability to regulate the temperature within a range from -25°C to +25°C, this container is suitable for storing materials that require precise and stable conditions. Laboratory samples, chemical substances, biological materials or medical preparations remain protected from external influences thanks to quality insulation and a powerful cooling unit.

Wide Range of Stored Materials

In 20′ refrigerated containers, it is possible to safely store not only blood samples, plasma, tissues or various biological preparations, but also sensitive chemicals, pharmaceutical products or diagnostic kits. Their versatility allows the interior space to be adapted to the specific needs of a laboratory – for example by installing shelves, boxes or special racks. This makes it easy to divide the container into sections according to the temperature requirements of individual materials.

Uses Beyond Laboratories

Refrigerated containers find their application not only in laboratories, but also in other areas of healthcare, pharmacy and research. They are suitable for mobile laboratories where it is necessary to maintain a constant temperature regardless of surrounding conditions. They are also used for the transport of vaccines or for maintaining the cold chain during clinical trials. In addition, they are suitable for archiving samples during long-term research projects or as an emergency storage facility in crisis situations.

Advantages of a Refrigerated Container for Laboratories

The main advantages of using a 20′ reefer container in a laboratory environment include:

• Mobility: The container can be easily transported and placed wherever it is currently needed – for example, directly at a collection point or at a field laboratory.
• Safety: The robust construction and quality security ensure protection against unauthorised access and external influences.
• Flexibility: The ability to set a precise temperature over a wide range (-25 to +25°C) allows the storage of a wide variety of material types.
• Cost savings: A used container is more affordable than a completely new solution, while offering comparable quality and reliability.
• Quick installation: No complex construction preparation is required – the container is ready for immediate use.

Who Is the Refrigerated Container Intended For?

This type of container will be appreciated primarily by scientific workplaces, hospitals, research institutes, pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies and organisations conducting clinical trials. It is also excellently suited for mobile teams working in the field or in crisis areas, where it is necessary to quickly create a safe and stable environment for samples and materials.

Recommendations and Tips for Effective Use

• Optimise the internal layout: Make use of the possibility of adapting the interior of the container – for example with built-in shelves, sample containers or separate sections according to temperature requirements.
• Ensure regular inspection: Regularly check the functionality of the cooling unit and insulation to ensure a constant temperature and the safety of stored materials.
• Use monitoring: Modern reefer containers allow the installation of tracking systems that provide real-time information about current conditions inside the container.
• Mobile laboratory: A 20′ container can also be equipped as a temporary laboratory with basic equipment for the collection, analysis and archiving of samples directly in the field.
• Short-term and long-term storage: The reefer container is a solution for both short-term operations and long-term projects requiring stable conditions.

Inspiration for New Uses

A refrigerated container can serve not only for the storage and transport of samples, but also as an emergency medicine storage facility, as part of a mobile vaccination station or as support in dealing with epidemiological crises. Thanks to its robust construction and the possibility of rapid relocation, it is also an ideal choice for humanitarian organisations or military medical teams.

A used 20′ reefer container is a versatile, safe and practical solution for laboratories and research workplaces. It enables reliable storage and transport of sensitive materials under precisely defined conditions. Thanks to its flexibility and easy mobility, it is ready to meet your requirements not only in the laboratory, but also in the field. If you are looking for an efficient refrigerated space for your samples or materials, this container is the right choice.
