Culina Group Chooses Cartwright for Major Fridge Trailer Order

Culina Group, the market leading provider of shared user FMCG Logistics, specialising in chilled and ambient food and drinks distribution, has made its first major refrigerated trailers order from Cartwright.

Ten of the trailers are liveried in UFIT signage supplied and fitted by AST signs for Culina Group’s major energy drinks customer.

The main bulk of the trailers are destined for the Muller Milks products contract and the remainder for general customer product distribution.

Culina Group particularly specified SAF Intradrum drum brake axles because of the product’s quality and also warranty benefits.

Mark Matkin, Culina Group Fleet Manager, commented: “We chose Cartwright for this substantial order because they were the only trailer manufacturer who could meet a very tight customer deadline. We have been working closely with Paul Burn, Lionel Curtis and his engineering team and the quality of Cartwright’s fridge trailers has substantially improved. Cartwright deserve a big pat on the back for accepting a very short deadline for delivery of these new trailers. I would also like to say well done to Carrier for their Vector 1550 fridge unit and Labcraft Lighting who supplied the internal lighting in the trailers and from a health and safety point of view this has gone down well with the drivers.”

Case Study – Effect of Louvers or diffusers on air flow distribution and cooling time on a meat log during Chill cycle

By Kushal Aurangabadkar An experimental analysis was conducted on a cooler space measuring 3.66 m × 6.096 m (12.0 ft × 20.0 ft), equipped with an ammonia refrigeration coil, five 30 cm (12 in.) fans, and five diffusers. The study measured airflow patterns, cooling rates, and heat transfer efficiency in meat storage by testing two configurations:

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for Modular Refrigeration Systems in Life Sciences Distribution Centers

by Ramez Naguib, P.E. Introduction Life sciences distribution centers are under immense pressure to deliver consistent temperature control, comply with increasingly stringent regulations, and optimize operational efficiency. Traditional built-up refrigeration systems often prove cumbersome, costly, and slow to implement. In contrast, modular, factory-assembled refrigeration systems have emerged as a compelling alternative. Drawing on lessons from
