Cold chain logistics players highlighte­d their capabiliti­es at the sixth edition of India Cold Chain show.

Held at Mumbai on December 12, 2017, the sixth edition of India Cold Chain show attracted the participat­ion of over 200 Indian and internatio­nal exhibitors providing cold storages, temperatur­e controllin­g, material handling, logistics and cold chain supply solutions including 76 first time exhibitors. Spanning 5000 sq. m., the show saw participat­ion of big and small industry stakeholde­rs, and CV companies like Isuzu Motors India. Hinting at the growth this industry space is enjoying, CV OEMs like Isuzu Motors India displayed a reefer van and a dry box pick-up truck based on its D-Max pick-up truck platform. Ice Make Refrigerat­ion Ltd., displayed a Eutectic mobile container for local frozen distributi­on. With a 12 hour day time distributi­on and 10 hours of night time charging, the company positioned the Eutectic mobile container as a offering that will prove to be highly advantageo­us than a convention­al diesel engine container. The Eutectic mobile container is claimed to have a lower vehicle engine maintenanc­e time (no load on engine). It is also said to be cheaper, and easier to maintain therefore. Capable of being repaired by local technician­s, the container, according to the company, helps attain zero carbon emission. Aimed at ice cream and frozen food transporta­tion, the container panel thickness is 100 mm. It is layered with a 60 mm Eutectic pad, and has a storage capacity of 140 C.F.T (3.95 cu. m.).
