CMG Containers has announced the expanded availability of refrigerated containers for sale, reinforcing its commitment to supporting temperature-sensitive storage and transport needs across logistics, food service, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and industrial sectors. These refrigerated shipping containers, also known as reefer containers, are engineered to maintain precise internal temperatures in demanding environments where consistency, reliability, and compliance are critical.
As global supply chains grow more complex and consumer expectations around freshness, safety, and quality continue to rise, the need for dependable cold storage infrastructure has become essential. Industries ranging from food distribution and cold storage logistics to biotech and medical supply now rely on mobile refrigeration solutions that can scale quickly without sacrificing performance. CMG Containers' refrigerated containers are designed to meet these evolving demands by delivering consistent temperature control, energy-efficient operation, and durable construction suitable for both transport and static storage.
"Cold chain failures are costly and often irreversible," said Ken Malkoç, CEO of CMG Containers. "Our refrigerated containers are built to protect sensitive goods, maintain compliance, and give businesses confidence that their products are stored and transported under exact conditions."
Refrigerated shipping containers are insulated steel containers equipped with integrated refrigeration units capable of maintaining temperatures well below freezing or within controlled chilled ranges. Unlike passive cold storage solutions, CMG's refrigerated containers actively regulate internal conditions, making them suitable for perishable food and beverage storage, pharmaceutical and medical supplies, agricultural products, chemical materials requiring temperature stability, and cold chain logistics and distribution hubs. Each unit is engineered for continuous operation, ensuring temperature consistency even in high-heat, high-humidity, or remote environments.
CMG Containers' reefers feature precise temperature control with advanced refrigeration systems that maintain consistent internal temperatures across a wide range, supporting both frozen and chilled storage requirements. The units have heavy-duty insulated construction with high-performance insulation that minimizes temperature fluctuation and improves energy efficiency, even during frequent door openings. Manufactured to ISO shipping standards, these refrigerated shipping containers are suitable for global transport and stacking. They are designed for standard electrical connections, making them adaptable for ports, warehouses, job sites, and distribution centers, with durable corten steel exteriors, reinforced doors, and tight seals that protect contents from environmental exposure and unauthorized access.
To accommodate varying storage volumes and site constraints, CMG Containers offers refrigerated units in the two most widely used industry sizes. The compact yet powerful 20ft refrigerated container is ideal for operations requiring precise temperature control within a smaller footprint, commonly used by restaurants and catering operations, small-scale food distributors, medical clinics and laboratories, and for temporary cold storage at events or job sites. For large-volume storage and transport needs, the 40ft refrigerated container delivers expanded capacity and uninterrupted cold chain reliability, frequently chosen by large food processors and distributors, cold storage facilities, pharmaceutical logistics providers, and agricultural exporters.
In addition to refrigerated containers for sale, CMG Containers also offers refrigerated container rental solutions for customers with temporary or seasonal requirements. Rental options are ideal for peak season inventory overflow, emergency cold storage needs, temporary project-based operations, and facility maintenance or expansion periods. By offering both purchase and rental options, CMG allows businesses to scale cold storage capacity without long-term capital commitments.
Refrigerated containers often operate in demanding environments—from ports and rail yards to construction sites and agricultural fields. CMG's reefers are engineered for durability, featuring reinforced flooring, corrosion-resistant steel, and components designed for continuous use. Each unit undergoes inspection and testing to ensure refrigeration systems perform reliably under sustained workloads. This focus on quality minimizes downtime and protects high-value, temperature-sensitive inventory.
"Reliability isn't optional when you're dealing with perishable or regulated goods," Malkoç added. "Our refrigerated containers are built for nonstop operation, because failure simply isn't an option."
Many clients require refrigerated containers that go beyond standard specifications. CMG Containers offers customization services to adapt reefers to unique operational needs. Available enhancements include multi-zone temperature control, interior shelving and racking systems, alarm and monitoring systems, interior lighting upgrades, and specialized flooring for hygiene or heavy loads. These modifications allow refrigerated shipping containers to function as mobile cold rooms, inspection spaces, or integrated components of larger cold chain systems.
As regulations around food safety, pharmaceutical handling, and product traceability become more stringent, businesses are increasingly investing in controlled storage solutions that reduce risk and increase operational resilience. Refrigerated containers provide mobility compared to fixed cold storage facilities, faster deployment without construction delays, scalability for growing or seasonal operations, and cost control through modular infrastructure. CMG Containers helps clients select the right refrigerated solution based on volume, temperature range, duration, and site conditions—ensuring long-term value rather than short-term fixes.
With a nationwide delivery network and extensive inventory, CMG Containers ensures that refrigerated containers for sale and rent are accessible to customers across the continental United States. From initial consultation to delivery and setup, clients receive guidance from professionals who understand cold chain requirements. "Our role is to simplify complex storage challenges," said Malkoç. "We help clients choose the right container, the right size, and the right configuration—so their operations stay compliant and efficient."
