“The RAP e2 provides key benefits to TempControl customers,” said Jim Bellinder, vice president of cargo sales in the Americas at United Cargo. “Its larger capacity and expanded temperature range gives customers greater flexibility in choosing the most efficient transport for their critical temperature-sensitive shipments. United Cargo and Envirotainer have worked together on cool chain logistics for nearly 10 years, so we are excited to offer the RAP e2 as an option for our customers.”

 

Customers will be able to lease the container directly through Envirotainer or through United Cargo.

 

United Cargo is now able to carry all four of Envirotainer’s active temperature-controlled containers across its network of 59 TempControl-certified destinations, according to the carrier.
