ABSTRACT:
A refrigerated transportation container having associated therewith a cryogenic refrigeration unit and a recirculation refrigeration unit is provided. The cryogenic unit allows an initial rapid cooling of the container's interior and the recirculation unit allows the efficient maintenance of the temperature of the container's interior during transport. The container is particularly useful in a method of distributing refrigerated products to a plurality of geographically spaced distribution locations. The rapid cool down of the container's interior allows a quick return of the interior to a predetermined transport temperature which, in turn, allows minimization of the risks of a failure to maintain the products at said predetermined transport temperature.
