Another slick Carrier install rolling out the door. 🚛❄️
This awesome Fairfax Signature body has been paired with a Carrier Vector HE 19 MT, and it’s a seriously impressive bit of kit.

Why do operators love it?
✅ Outstanding fuel efficiency
✅ Reduced emissions without compromising performance
✅ Powerful multi-temperature capability for mixed loads
✅ Reliable temperature control, even in demanding New Zealand conditions
✅ Lower operating costs over the life of the unit

When you’ve got premium refrigeration technology, you’re setting your fleet up for maximum uptime, efficiency and performance on every run.

Built to keep products cold. Built to keep businesses moving. 💪❄️

Check out this sharp new setup, fitting a Dhollandia LSP.07.05 tail lift to a 2025 Toyota ZX van.

With its updated platform design, there’s now more space for eye-catching rear graphics, while the switch to a standard cantilever operation keeps things smooth and reliable on every job.

🛠️ Finished off with a Transcold-developed mount for a clean, seamless fit.
Built to look good. Built to work hard.

When everything’s running right, you should be able to trust the load behind you.

Sometimes though, a few hours into the run, you start wondering if the temperature is actually holding where it should.

Carrier Lynx Fleet gives you that visibility while you’re still on the road.
📡 Live supply and return air temperature data
⚠️ Alerts if the unit drifts from setpoint
📊 Real-time unit activity, run hours, and alarm history

So instead of waiting until delivery to find a problem, you can see how the unit is performing and how the load is behaving, in real time.

It’s the kind of insight that helps you stay on top of temperature control
and avoid issues before they escalate.

Keeps things simple. Keeps things moving. Keeping things cool, together 🚛

Throwback Thursday at Transcold ❄️🚂

Back when refrigeration units were a little heavier, a little louder, and a lot more hands-on, we were out on the ground helping shape New Zealand’s cold chain.

You’d find our team installing Carrier units not just on trailer fleets, but on rail freight wagons moving goods up and down the country, keeping things cool long before today’s technology made it look easy.

As the industry evolved, so did we, moving from those early rail and trailer setups to the smarter, more efficient systems we rely on today. Different tools, same purpose.

50 years on, that original mission still drives everything we do: keeping New Zealand cool, together. Here’s to where it all started, and the gear that got us there. 🙌

Some people are still plugging trucks into diesel when there’s a smarter way forward. ⚡️

Meet Addvolt, the technology helping fleets reduce fuel use, lower emissions, cut noise and future-proof their operations without compromising performance.

And this isn’t technology waiting for its moment. It’s already proving itself on New Zealand roads. Integrated into two Fairfax ZE trailers, Addvolt technology is continuously helping break boundaries in refrigerated transport, delivering real-world performance, reducing emissions, and proving that electric-powered refrigeration isn’t just possible… it works.

Less idling. Less diesel. Less noise. More efficiency where it matters most.

At Transcold, we’re proud to bring innovative technology like Addvolt to New Zealand’s transport industry, helping operators take practical steps toward a cleaner, more efficient cold chain.

The future of refrigerated transport isn’t coming. It’s already here. ❄️⚡

Wherever the road takes you, we’re right there with you. ❄️🚛
