The British Summer season traditionally consisted of Ascot, Wimbledon and Henley regatta. The well heeled British aristocracy enjoyed a summer of sport. Nowadays the summer season consists of outdoor music events of Glastonbury, Party in the Park, V Festival, Goodwood and Reading Festival, to name but a few. In fact there are over 3 million festival goers each year attending a variety of Rock, Pop, and Folk festivals all over the United Kingdom. The amount of food and drink consumed at these festivals is staggering. Often located outside, in a field, many festival caterers are restricted with the amount of fridge and freezer space available on site. Deliveries are also restricted, so insulated containers on castors are the safest method of transporting, storing and delivering fresh and frozen goods. Insulated containers on castors remove the need for refrigerated lorries, as the individual container retains its core temperature for up to twenty four hours. This means festival caters can accept one delivery in a standard van or lorry which carries a variety of racks on castors as well as insulated containers on castors.

Manoeuvrable containers are mounted on a variety of different styles of castors, according to customers needs. Some supermarkets prefer deliveries on nylon wheeled castors, whereas other for example prefers grey or black rubber castors. Containers mounted on dollies can also be supplied with locking castors. The cool containers are manufactured from shock proof materials on the external shell, and have insulated material in between the internal shell and external wall. This insulated material is injected foam, inserted under high pressure and fills every gap and join to provide a hard rigid insulation. Maximum insulation is achieved through high spec door seals, making the insulated containers oncastors a hygienic and efficient transporters of cool and frozen goods. Even in the middle of a field these efficient containers can be left for up to twenty four hours, retaining their core temperature.

Logistic companies across the globe have seen the benefits of these containers as not only are they an efficient transporter on castors, of cool and cold goods, but also they reduce the vehicle fleet costs. Delivering in standard lorries, rather than refrigerated and freezer vehicles, reduces the carbon dioxide ( CO2) requirement and can significantly reduce the cost of the transportation fleet. The insulated containers and castors conform to international measurements for fresh and frozen food packaging units. In addition thermo pallet containers can be mounted on temperature resistant castors, for fast freezing and cooling. From the larger Euro pallet dimensions to small, more portable containers on castors, these efficient containers ensure every customer receives the delivery they require. Planning perishable and non perishable goods on one delivery, ensures logistics companies can plan and manage efficient deliveries. For remote deliveries, to field and festival locations, a range of goods can be delivered in one drop, and insulated containers on castors, can store the cooled items for up to twenty four hours!
