Case Study 1. Safety Trends While basic technologies used in transport refrigeration systems are essentially unchanged over the past five years, according to Thermo King's Duppler, significant developments have occurred in the following areas: 2. Environmental Responsibility Concern about the environment as it relates to trailers largely deals with controlling emissions and fluorocarbon discharge into the air. For example, reefers from Carrier and others run on non-ozone depleting refrigerant called R4048. 3. Thwarting Terrorism Maintaining proper temperature of perishables in transit is closely related nowadays to concern about terrorism through food tampering. There are safety checks built into the equipment as well as safety procedures to be followed. 4. Retailer Puts Focus on Freshness In recent years, supermarket chains across the country have been stocking more fresh foods as consumer interest has increased. To ensure freshness, Albertson's LLC has always been vigilant with monitoring the temperature on all inbound produce, fresh meat and seafood shipments to its distribution centers. |
