The Thermo Trolley was developed for the safe and temperature-stable transport of fresh and frozen food products as well as other sensitive goods. It combines the high-performance vacuum insulation of va-Q-tec with the logistics, design, and engineering expertise of Wanzl, enabling a fully passive cold chain without refrigerated vehicles, dry ice, or cold packs. Preconditioned foods are simply loaded into the Thermo Trolley and reliably remain within the required temperature range throughout transport.
Thanks to integrated Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs), the Thermo Trolley maintains the required temperature for up to 12 hours in both chilled and frozen applications. With two compact special cold packs, the hold time can be extended to up to 24 hours. The robust, ergonomic, and low-maintenance design is tailored for daily use in food and fresh logistics, significantly reducing process costs and the CO₂ footprint.
The Thermo Trolley can be individually customized in terms of dimensions, design, performance, branding, and service packages. It represents a sustainable and cost-efficient alternative to conventional cold chains, providing a safe and efficient solution for transporting temperature-sensitive goods.
