Do You Need to Keep Food Cold or Frozen?

Imagine you have fresh milk. You do not want it to get warm. Now, think about ice cream. It must stay frozen solid, or it becomes soup! Do you see the problem? Some things need to be kept cool, while some things need to be kept very, very cold. This is why chłodnikowe ciężarówki 4. i freezer trucks are different.

What Is a Refrigerated Truck?

A chłodniowy tir, also called a reefer, is a truck. It uses a Jednostka chłodnicza. It keeps the inside cold, like a big fridge on wheels.

  • Temperature range: 0°C to +7°C (32°F to 45°F).
  • What it does: It keeps things cool but not frozen.
  • Refrigeration unit: Uses less power. Needs standard insulation.
  • Cargo it moves: Fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy, meat (not frozen), flowers, some medicines, and drinks.

If you need chilled transport for things that must not freeze, this is your truck.

What Is a Freezer Truck?

A freezer truck is different. This truck keeps things frozen hard all the way to where they need to go.

  • Temperature range: -18°C to -25°C (0°F to -13°F), or even colder!
  • What it does: It keeps everything frozen.
  • Refrigeration unit: Much stronger. Needs more power and thicker walls.
  • Cargo it moves: Ice cream, frozen meat, frozen vegetables, frozen pizza, or special medicines.

If you need your goods to stay like ice, you need a freezer truck.

Why Pick One Over the Other?

Picture two friends. Anna sells berries. She needs to keep them cool, not hard as rocks. Sam sells ice cream. He needs it frozen, not melted.

  • Anna needs a chłodniowy tir.
  • Sam needs a freezer truck.

If you pick the wrong one, Anna’s berries might freeze, and Sam’s ice cream might melt. That means lost money!
