40ft High Cube New Refrigerated Container: Maximum Capacity Cold Storage and Transport
The 40ft High Cube New Refrigerated Container is the largest reefer unit in our range, providing 2,401 cubic feet of temperature controlled interior space in a high cube format that maximizes vertical pallet stacking. With extra interior height compared to standard reefers, this container allows you to load taller pallets, stack crates higher, and fit more product per shipment or storage cycle. It is a one trip unit in near perfect condition, built to current ISO standards and ready for immediate deployment in cold chain logistics, long term refrigerated storage, or on site temperature controlled holding.
The multi material construction combines a corrosion resistant steel or aluminum outer shell, food grade stainless steel or aluminum interior lining, and high performance insulation layers between them. This design delivers exceptional thermal efficiency that minimizes energy consumption while maintaining precise temperature control throughout the full internal volume, from the doors to the far end and from floor to ceiling.
Why High Cube for Refrigeration
Standard height reefer containers limit pallet stacking to two levels for most product types. The high cube design adds enough internal height to accommodate a third level of certain pallet configurations, or to stack crates and boxes higher without crushing lower layers. For high volume operations moving perishable goods, pharmaceuticals, or temperature sensitive materials, this additional height translates directly into more product per container, fewer containers needed, and lower per unit transport and storage costs.
Key Features
- High cube internal height: 95.47 inches (2,425 mm) of internal clearance provides extra vertical space for higher stacking and taller pallet loads.
- Food grade interior lining: Stainless steel or food grade aluminum interior surfaces meet hygiene standards for direct food contact and pharmaceutical storage.
- High performance insulation: Multiple insulation layers between the outer shell and inner lining minimize thermal transfer, maintaining stable temperatures with lower energy consumption.
- Corrosion resistant outer shell: Steel or aluminum exterior panels resist corrosion from salt spray, humidity, and industrial atmospheres.
- Full ISO certification: Meets all international standards for safe container handling, stacking, and transport worldwide.
- One trip condition: Near perfect condition after a single voyage from the manufacturer. Factory fresh with minimal wear.
- 2,401 cubic feet volume: Massive internal capacity for high volume cold storage and transport operations.

Construction
- Outer shell: Corrosion resistant steel or aluminum panels provide structural strength and protection against external impacts and weather.
- Insulation core: High density polyurethane foam or equivalent insulation material fills the space between outer shell and inner lining, creating an effective thermal barrier.
- Inner lining: Stainless steel or food grade aluminum provides a hygienic, easy to clean, and non contaminating surface for stored goods.
- Sealed construction: All panel joints, door seals, and penetrations are designed to maintain the thermal envelope without air leakage.
- Reinforced floor: T section aluminum or steel floor profiles allow forklift access and air circulation beneath cargo.
Customizable Options
- Interior shelving: Fixed or adjustable shelving systems for organized storage of smaller items and mixed product loads.
- Partition walls: Divide the interior into separate temperature zones for different product requirements.
- Enhanced ventilation: Additional air circulation systems for produce that requires controlled atmosphere storage.
- Lock upgrades: Enhanced security locking systems for high value cargo.
