Refrigerator Trucks

A refrigerator truck is a van or truck specifically designed to carry perishable goods at the required temperatures. Like refrigerator cars, the trucks differ from simple insulated and ventilated vans, which are normally used for transporting fruit, neither of which are installed with cooling equipment. Refrigerator trucks can be ice-cooled, complete with a variety of mechanical refrigeration systems powered by small displacement diesel engines, or utilize carbon dioxide : either as dry ice or in the form of a liquid as a cooling agent.
