Services
Double Deck Trailers
Our double deck trailers maximize cargo capacity while reducing environmental impact. Designed for volume goods delivery, they offer up to 70% increased carrying capacity compared to standard trailers. Built with high-gloss panels and available in single or multi-temp configurations, these trailers ensure operational efficiency and reliability for retailers and logistics providers.
Vector E-Cool Systems
The Vector eCool is the UKs first fully autonomous electric refrigerated trailer system. It converts kinetic energy into electricity, eliminating direct CO2 emissions. Integrated into twin-member trailers, it features energy recovery, quiet operation, and compatibility with existing infrastructure, supporting sustainable logistics without compromising performance.
Blast Freezers
Gray & Adams blast freezers provide rapid temperature reduction for heavy-duty storage. Constructed with robust five-element panels, they withstand harsh environments and include safety features like man-trapped alarms and fire-retardant materials. Available up to 15.5 meters long, these portable units enhance capacity without requiring planning permission.
Chillers
Our commercial cold stores offer precise temperature control for chilled or frozen goods. Built with the same five-element panels as our trailers, they include non-slip flooring, internal lighting, and optional shelving. Designed for durability and compliance with food safety standards, these units ensure optimal storage conditions for diverse operations.
Game Larders
Purpose-built game larders for commercial storage feature refrigerated compartments and preparation areas. Designed for indoor or outdoor use, they include meat rails, stainless-steel workstations, and hygiene-focused features like infrared hand-washing basins. These units meet UK food storage legislation with separate entrance/exit zones and safety mechanisms.
