Professional Temperature Controlled Haulage
KBC Logistics Ltd specialises in refrigerated and frozen haulage for temperature-sensitive goods across the UK. Whether you’re moving chilled, frozen, or ambient-controlled cargo, we make sure it stays at the correct temperature from collection to delivery.
From our base in Purfleet, we operate reefer containers that collect freight from major UK ports and move it securely to our depot or direct to your site. We have established links with Tilbury, London Gateway, Southampton, Teesside, Liverpool and beyond, giving you nationwide coverage.
We know that in climate-controlled logistics, timing, temperature and handling are everything. That’s why our team plans every job in detail - routing, loading, delivery windows, and compliance, so you don’t have to worry. Our modern, well-maintained fleet and experienced drivers ensure your cargo is protected in transit and arrives in the condition you expect.
Types of Reefer Logistics for Refrigerated & Frozen Transport
Refrigerated Vehicles
These specialised vehicles use electronic control systems to manage internal temperature. Depending on the setup, vans and trucks are either powered by the vehicle’s engine or fitted with independent refrigeration units to keep the load chilled.
Passive Shipping Containers
Passive containers are built to hold a set temperature for a limited period, making them ideal for shorter journeys. They’re heavily insulated, so they don’t need external power or active monitoring.
Active Shipping Systems
Active systems are typically larger and are commonly used in air and sea freight. They use powered, advanced temperature-control technology to maintain consistent conditions over longer distances.
Climate Controlled Transport
Our temperature-controlled haulage is ideal for:
- Frozen food
- Meat and fresh produce
- Pharmaceuticals and medicine
- Flowers and plants
- Cosmetics
- Fine art
- Electronics
Pharmaceutical transport is especially sensitive. If medicines aren’t kept at the correct temperature, they can become ineffective and unsafe. We stay compliant with up-to-date guidance from the European Union, World Health Organization, Parenteral Drug Association, and International Air Transport Association.
