When the Going Gets Tough, We Chill

23 February 2022

Thermotainers, firstly what are they? 

They’re incredibly important within the distribution area of chilled and frozen products and ensure a regulated temperature is maintained. Without Thermotainers, moving such products would become a logistical nightmare. You can read more in this article “What are Thermotainers”? that we previously published on our website. 

Our success in this area of chilled distribution containers has gone from strength to strength in the last 18 months with increased sales and a few major contracts wins in the supply and maintenance of Thermotainers. 

Leading retailer turns to Distribution Maintenance


The team at Distribution Maintenance rose to fulfilling one of our biggest orders for Thermotainers to date. These were Olivo 500L refurbished Thermotainers and we had to fulfil an order quantity of 400 units in just a three-week lead time. Achieving such a task is a true testament to the skilled staff within our Essex based maintenance and repair centre, plus the 40 years of knowledge and experience within the distribution market that spans many products including roll cages, pallet cages, magnums and much more.

Our skilled engineers are trained to the highest standards within plastic welding and meet the Olivo standard of excellence demanded for such work. Our expertise in this refurbishment covers welding to any major damage of the container including doors and box section. We have a long history of servicing Thermotainers, so our team had in-depth knowledge of the product and were aware of the challenges.
