Superior units

Container World offers new generation reefers fitted with internal lighting, strip-curtains, and patented single lock-rod doors for easier opening.

Most of these reefers are fitted with scroll compressors, resulting in lower-power consumption (compared to conventional semi-hermetic reefers).

Specialised units are also available (T&C’s apply), capable of holding ultra-low set-points of -40°C.

Peace of Mind

We offer 24/7/365 in-house National Technical Support, with sub-contractors on-call to assist in all areas we operate. In addition, all reefers leased from Container World are serviced and maintained by our in-house reefer division to ensure optimal running capacity, giving our clients complete peace of mind that their cold-storage needs are handled with utmost care.

Modular Pre-Fabricated Flat-pack Containers

Containerised Blast Freezers

Freeze 2 to 8 tonnes of product in 20 hours. Available to lease or buy.

A Container World blast freezer is a complete freezing plant built inside an insulated refrigerated container. Fitted with new refrigeration machinery, a full 380V electrical system with Sollatek protection and a dedicated plant room, it arrives ready to connect to a three-phase supply. There is no building to design, no construction delays and no fixed facility to pay for. 

Every size in our range is available to lease or buy, so you can match the unit and the commercial terms to how your business runs. 

Why blast freeze?

Freeze it fast, keep it fresh. Rapid freezing forms smaller ice crystals, so your product thaws with its texture, moisture and appearance intact. Reefer Containers are made to keep product frozen, not to freeze it. A blast freezer does the freezing, so your Reefer container can do the storing.

Model Capacity in 20 hours Power supply Condensing unit Best suited to
6m Blast Freezer 2,000 to 3,000 kg 80A, 380V 20 kW @ -30°C Butcheries, bakeries, caterers, game farms and smaller processors
12m Blast Freezer 4,000 to 6,000 kg 100A, 380V 30 kW @ -30°C Growing producers with steady daily volumes
12m Blast Freezer 6,000 to 8,000 kg 160A, 380V 50 kW @ -30°C Large processors, exporters and pallet-scale loads

Lease or Buy

Lease when you need capacity without a large upfront capital outlay. Blast freezer rental suits seasonal peaks, harvest and fishing seasons, short-term supply contracts, and temporary cover while a fixed plant is built, upgraded or repaired. It is also a practical way to prove the volumes before you commit to buying. 

Buy when you need permanent, year-round freezing capacity. The unit becomes a long-term asset in your operation, and because it is containerised, it can move with you if your business relocates or expands.

Built into every unit

Who uses our blast freezers?

Meat and poultry processors, abattoirs, seafood and fishing operations, fruit and vegetable packers, bakeries, food manufacturers, caterers, game farms, and cold chain and export operators.
