Advanced Air Freight Active Container for all Temperature Ranges
The RAP e2 container draws on the benefits of the already established and proven electrical heating and compressor cooling technology. The RAP e2 container is an innovative solution that offers reduced shipping costs while still providing the same high level of quality. An Envirotainer customer says “With this new addition to the container fleet, Envirotainer deserves to win the Innovation in Quality Distribution Award. Our cooperation with Envirotainer has always been very good, and as a customer we appreciate their efficient communication through the complete chain of departments, including Sales, R&D and Operations. We find that Envirotainer works seriously with ideas coming from their customers in order to find suitable and efficient solutions. The RAP e2 is the result of a development and testing program and incorporates Envirotainer’s vast experience gained in its various fields of use, in thousands of shipments and intense testing of its smaller electrical heating and compressor cooling container. As an LD-9 sized container, suitable to fit five Euro or four US pallets, the RAP e2 container ensures seamless handling of large volume shipments throughout the supply chain.”
