Securing Cargo in Reefer Containers
Reefers are different from regular shipping containers. They are a different size internally, and more importantly, they don’t have any lashing and anchor points. This makes it impossible to tie down cargo inside a reefer, and blocking and bracing is the only option. However, blocking and bracing does not work for all loading configurations.
Reefers are also lined with fragile materials such as aluminum and plastic and they cost seven times as much to build and repair, compared with a normal shipping container.
Therefore it is vital that your cargo is packed and secured in a way that not only avoids damage to your shipment but also avoids damaging the container.
We offer multiple solutions that are not limited to blocking and bracing to safely secure your cargo in reefer containers. Just get in touch with us!
Reefer Lashing Points
1t anchor points you can install in seconds
The lack of anchor points inside reefers makes it impossible to tie down cargo in reefer containers. To overcome this obstable, Cordstrap developed the reefer lashing point. This clever solution is quickly bolted in the reefer floor and instantly creates a certified anchor point of 1t. This is the same strength as the anchor point in the floor of a standard shipping container. Paired with our breakthrough innovation, AnchorLash HD and load specific add-ons, you can now secure a wide variety of cargo inside reefers (and non-operable reefers).
Cordstrap reefer lashing points allow you to safely and consistently secure a wide variety of cargo inside reefer containers.
