These air containers offer higher reliability, lower costs and better temperature control than CO2 containers. Autonomously running batteries and temperature settings can be maintained for over 100 hours in a typical shipment scenario and for a minimum of 30 hours in extreme conditions.

Unlike passive containers, the active Envirotainer units operate on batteries in-flight and on the ground, through an electrical connection that maintains the air-cargo container’s inside temperature while charging the batteries.
