French container ship giant CMA CGM announced the launch of REEFLEX, a new solution for the transportation of liquids by controlled temperature, which allows for the transportation of liquids (juices, milk, compotes, syrup and all kind of oils) in a single bag with a capacity ranging from 12,000 to 24,000 liters.
Developed in partnership with Teconja, a German expert in juices, and Liqua, an expert in packaging solutions for the transportation of liquids, REEFLEX “guarantees a healthy and safe way of transportation”. Thanks to its external pumping system, the bag is filled and emptied in 35 minutes.
Moreover, the system helps maintain the product’s nutritional and chemical properties thanks to a sterile environment and controlled temperatures precisely maintained between -35°C and +20°C. Each single-use bag is entirely recyclable. The system also allows to fill up and empty the bag without someone being present in the container during these operations.
“REEFLEX represents an ideal alternative to break bulk and it will allow exporters and importers to carry their goods by containers, thus improving the conditions of transportation and delivery,” said CMA CGM in a statement.
