The service provides a significant enhancement to the quality and safety procedures of enterprises’ fleet with international activities, such as supermarkets or food manufacturers, as well as their subcontractors. At the same time, it offers significant added value to these businesses, a factor that has the potential to function as a considerable competitive advantage domestically.

• F: mechanically refrigerated equipment;
• R: reinforced insulation;
• C: -20^οC temperature.
