According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Refrigerated Aircraft Cargo Container market size was valued at US$ 337 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 594 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 8.3% during review period.
Refrigerated aircraft cargo container is a high-end temperature control solution for air transport of temperature-sensitive materials such as biopharmaceuticals, food, raw materials, and electronic components. It uses high-performance insulation materials and is equipped with an automatic temperature control system that can operate during flight to ensure that the cargo maintains 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, temperature fluctuations may cause drugs to fail or deteriorate, so air temperature-controlled cargo containers play a vital role in cold chain transportation.
Refrigerated aircraft cargo container belongs to the category of ULD (Aircraft Container Container). ULD is a device used for standardized loading of cargo in air transportation, which is mainly divided into two categories: Pallet (P): that is, air pallets, usually used to load large or irregularly shaped cargo. Common Pallet types include PAJ, PLA, PLF, etc. Container (A): that is, air containers, usually used to load standardized size cargo. Common container types include AKE, AKH, AMF, etc.
In the field of temperature control, ULD is further divided into refrigerated (R) types, which are mainly used to transport goods that require temperature control. Common types include RKN, RAP and RLP.
Global Refrigerated Aircraft Cargo 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.
Using IoT technology and artificial intelligence algorithms, we can achieve real-time monitoring, automatic adjustment and data recording of temperature-controlled boxes to ensure accurate temperature management of goods during transportation. By improving battery technology and using efficient insulation materials, the endurance of temperature-controlled boxes is further improved to meet the needs of long-distance air transportation. Develop box structures that support multiple temperature-controlled zones to adapt to the diverse temperature requirements of different goods (such as the coexistence of refrigerated and frozen areas). With the increase in global demand for the transportation of pharmaceuticals such as vaccines, plasma, and reagents, the demand for high-end temperature-controlled boxes continues to be strong. The growing demand for imported goods such as fresh food and high-quality fruits from consumers provides impetus for the market development of temperature-controlled freight boxes. Provide personalized solutions based on customers' specific needs (such as temperature range, size, and endurance).
