Keeping it Fresh: Navigating the Cold Chain Journey
Cold chain is vital for transporting temperature-sensitive products using specialised thermal and refrigerated packaging. Our sea freight and air freight solutions maintain temperatures from -30°C to +30°C, ensuring global freshness and quality.
Perishable goods like fruits, flowers, and vegetables require careful handling due to their sensitivity to extreme temperatures and humidity. Our cold chain experts use advanced refrigeration and real-time monitoring to preserve these items, ensuring they remain fresh from origin to destination. Explore our reefer foods solutions for top-notch cold chain logistics.
The Crucial Connection: Biosecurity and Logistics
In the logistics industry, where the global movement of goods is constant, stringent biosecurity protocols are indispensable. Importers must provide essential documents and adhere to strict protocols. Navigating these procedures can be daunting, but Mainfreight offers invaluable assistance. With dedicated air and sea freight depots, temperature-controlled storage and fumigation services, Mainfreight ensures smooth transportation while meeting biosecurity requirements.
Continuous Growth: The Importance of Training and Development in the Supply Chain
A great workplace stands out by prioritising its people. With Australian logistics workers spending 42 hours weekly on the job—30.35% more than the national average—supporting the team's wellbeing is essential. Inadequately trained or overworked team members risk compromising customer satisfaction, leading to damaged freight and financial losses. A truly exceptional workplace fosters continuous learning, provides growth opportunities, and prioritises the team's welfare.
