Global Air Cargo Refrigerated Containers Market 2025 by Company, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Air Cargo Refrigerated Containers market size was valued at US$ 338 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 590 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 8.2% during review period.

Air cargo refrigerated containers are high-end temperature control solutions for air transport of temperature-sensitive materials such as biopharmaceuticals, food, raw materials, and electronic components. They use high-performance insulation materials and are equipped with an automatic temperature control system that can operate during flight to ensure that the goods maintain a constant temperature environment throughout the transportation process. Its temperature control effect is directly related to the quality, safety or efficacy of the materials carried, especially in the field of biopharmaceuticals, where temperature fluctuations may cause drugs to become ineffective or deteriorate. Therefore, air cargo refrigerated containers play a vital role in cold chain transportation.

Global Air Cargo Refrigerated Container key players include Envirotainer (va-Q-tec), Csafe, Dokasch, Sonoco ThermoSafe and SkyCell AG, etc. Global top five manufacturers hold a share over 85%.

The largest market is North America, has a share over 30%, followed by Europe and China, with around 24% and 15% market share respectively.

In terms of product, Active Container is the largest segment, with a share about 75%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Medicine, has a share over 75%, followed by Food, etc.

In terms of the transportation of pharmaceuticals and biological products, with the rapid development of the biopharmaceutical industry, especially vaccines, blood products, cell and gene therapy products, the demand for temperature-controlled transportation has surged. The demand for cross-border transportation of high-end foods (such as seafood, dairy products, fresh fruits and vegetables) has increased. Some chemicals and precision electronic components also need to be transported at specific temperatures. Modern temperature-controlled freight boxes are equipped with advanced temperature monitoring and adjustment systems that can track temperature, humidity and other data in real time, and achieve remote monitoring through the Internet of Things technology. New refrigerated containers use energy-saving designs and environmentally friendly materials to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. By using composite materials and high-strength lightweight materials, the weight of freight boxes can be reduced and air transportation costs can be reduced.
