Do you like chocolate? So do I! But did you know, chocolate can melt fast in hot weather? Moving chocolate, like from a factory to a store, is not easy. If it gets too warm, it turns soft. If it melts, no one wants to eat it.
I am CLW GROUP. I make special refrigerated trucks that help chocolate stay cool and safe. Let me show you how these trucks work and why they are so important!
Why Does Chocolate Melt?
Chocolate is soft and yummy. It has a special fat called cocoa butter. Cocoa butter melts very easy. When it gets hot, chocolate turns into a gooey mess. That is not good for you or the store.
Chocolate melts at only 30°C to 35°C (86°F to 95°F). If it gets hotter, it melts more. Even a warm day, 25°C (77°F), can make chocolate soft. Once chocolate melts, it gets white spots from fat bloom. Sometimes it gets sugar bloom too, which looks spotty. Nobody likes melted chocolate!
The Big Problem
Chocolate has to go from one place to another. Factories make it. Trucks drive it to stores. Sometimes they go very far, even to other countries. But on hot days, regular trucks do not keep chocolate cool.
So what is the answer? The answer is a refrigerated truck!
Cosa è un camion frigorifero?
Un camion refrigerati is like a big, cool box on wheels. It is not just a normal box truck. It has a special system called a unità frigorifera. The reefer keeps cool air inside. It makes sure food like chocolate, ice cream, and fruit stay safe and yummy.
CLW GROUP builds strong, smart camion refrigerati
How Does the Refrigeration System Work?
Let’s see how these trucks keep chocolate safe!
The refrigerated truck has these parts:
- Refrigeration Unit: This is the engine that does all the cooling work.
- Compressor: Squeezes the special air (called refrigerant) and moves it around.
- Condenser: Makes heat go out of the truck.
- Expansion Valve: Lets the air move right.
- Evaporator: Soaks up all the heat inside.
- Insulated Walls: Thick walls stop hot air from coming in.
- Thermostat: You pick the best temperature and the truck keeps it.
The truck pulls hot air out and blows in cool air. Air keeps moving all around the chocolate, making sure it cools every bite. No hot spots!
Even the way you pack the truck matters! We load chocolate nice and neat, so air can go around each box.
What Temperature Does Chocolate Need?
Chocolate likes it not too cold, not too hot. The best temperature is 10°C to 18°C (50°F to 65°F). That stops melting but does not freeze the chocolate.
Humidity (wet air) is a problem too. If the air is too wet, water sits on the chocolate and makes it spotty. The best humidity is 50-55%. Our trucks control both temperature and humidity. That keeps chocolate from getting fat bloom or sugar bloom.
How Do We Make Sure Chocolate Stays Cool?
Before we put chocolate on the truck, we cool it down.
We call this 1. raffreddamento preliminare. It is important! When loading the chocolate, we work fast so it never gets warm.
We use top tech inside our trucks:
- Registratori di dati: These watch and record the temperature.
- GPS and wireless sensors: These show us, in real time, what the temperature is and where the truck is.
- If anything is wrong, we get an alert and fix it quickly.

The Whole Cold Chain: Not Just the Truck
Our job does not stop at the truck. We also think about:
- Cool warehouses for storage
- Delivery vans that keep chocolate cool
- Packing in insulated boxes for when chocolate is outside the truck for a short time
This catena del freddo keeps chocolate safe from start to finish.
See the Big Picture: Why Does This Matter?
Here are some numbers about chocolate and why this all counts:
| Fatto | Perché è importante |
|---|---|
| $100 Billion+ Chocolate Market | That’s a lot of sweet to protect! |
| 10-15% Spoiled Without Cold Chain | Losing chocolate = losing money |
| Reefers grow 5-7% every year | More people want safe, cool chocolate |
| Over 60% trucks use real-time tracking | Tech keeps food safe |
| Cooling uses up to 30% fuel | We use smart tech to help you save cost |
