About
Krautz - Temax |
|
Krautz
- Temax is a Belgian company which specialises in the
development and production of unique insulation
materials, thermal blankets and insulation solutions for the
transport, logistics and packaging of temperature
sensitive goods. All the insulation products are tailor
made according to the required insulation quality, dimensions,
models, etc...

|
| Transport
of conditioned products |
|
To
transport conditioned
goods or temperature
sensitive products as
food products,
pharmaceuticals
medicines or chemical
products, conditioned
trailers or trucks are
used. These trailers
have a cooling engine
and an insulated body to
create the required
temperature in the
trailer. This system is
an active cooling system
(see page: Cold
chain active cooling)
in which the cooler
engine is creating a
temperature controlled
environment in the
trailer. You would think
that is very easy to
maintain the required
temperature in the
conditioned, cooled or
heated trailer yet a
number of CCP’s are
appearing when active
cooling is used. (see CCP’s
in conditioned transport
below on this page).
Therefore the company
Krautz – Temax has
developed a number of
unique insulation
solutions which optimize
the temperature
preservation in
conditioned road
transport. Do you use
conditioned transport
and are you looking for
an ideal solution to
transport your products
in the most ideal
situation, please do not
hesitate to contact us.
We will be happy to
develop or study your
transport situation. See

| Multiple
temperatres in conditioned transport |
|
When
conditioned transport is
used to transport
temperature sensitive
products, the choice
could be made to create
multiple temperature
environments in the
trailer so products with
a different temperature
can be transported in
the same truck or
trailer. The company
Krautz Temax produces
special insulated
thermal partition walls
to make that possible.
The thermal partition
walls are used as an
insulated barrier
between two
environments. If the
other environments need
to be temperature
controlled the company
Krautz Temax has
developed the unique
Triple Cooler system
which not only gives the
advantage of creating a
multitemp cooling system
but also guarantees the
perfect temperature in
the whole trailer, front
and back. (see page: Triple
Cooler system)

|
| Passive
cooling in conditioned transport |
|
Next
to active cooling in
conditioned transport
also passive cooling
systems can be used to
optimize the temperature
of the product as create
a combination transport
of products with
different temperatures
in the same trailer or
truck. The company
Krautz – Temax
produces special
insulated covers or
thermal blankets and
insulated boxes which
protect the temperature
of the product against
unwanted external or
outer temperatures. On
this website you can
find a number of passive
cooling systems and
passive packinging
solutions. |

| "CCP's"
in traditional conditioned transport |
|
"CCP's"
or Critical Control Points are points in
the transport of temperature sensitive goods which
require extra attention seeing that at these
points the required temperatures can fluctuate.
(See also: Cold
chain active cooling) Although,
the transport is done by active cooling, being the
cooling engine, lots of possible CCP's can appear.
Below you can see some of the points where a
temperature fluctuation can exist. The big
question is: how big are these CCP's (height of the
temperature fluctuation and duration of time of
the fluctuation) and what is the impact of these
CCP's on the quality of the temperature sensitive goods?

| 1.
To cold at front and to warm at the back of the
trailer |
|

|
|
Air
flow in a standard conditioned trailer |
|
If we take a closer look at a standard
conditioned trailer, we see that the cooling
engine is placed at the front on the
trailer. This means that the air-flow of the
cooled trailer is blown from the front to
the back. Experience show that this offers a
problem with the temperatures in the total
trailer. In every transport, the
temperatures at the front are much lower
than in the back of the trailer. Mostly the
back of the trailer is not getting any cold
air at all or it takes a very long time.
This situation creates a CCP which means
that there are points that the temperature
of the air surrounding the conditioned goods
can fluctuate and need to be studied
closely. Do you have this problem? See Triple
cooler |
|
|
.
|
| 2.
"HOT-SPOTS" in the trailer |
|

|
|
Hot
spots in a standard conditioned
trailer |
|
In standard conditioned trailers, the air-flow
from the cooling engine is blown from the
front to the back of the trailer. Experience
show that if large or high pallets or roller
containers are loaded together with lower
pallets or roller containers, the higher
loaded pallets block the air-flow of the
cooling engine creating hot-spots in the
trailer. Hot spots are locations in the
conditioned trailer where the temperature is
higher than the required temperature. These
hot spots are CCP's where the temperature
can fluctuate and need to be studied
closely. Do you have this problem? See Triple
cooler |
|
|
.
|
| 3.
Unwanted air-flow in the trailer during opened
doors |
|

|
|
Opened
doors on
a standard conditioned trailer |
|
When the doors of a conditioned trailer are
opened, an air flow of unwanted external
temperatures can float into the conditioned
trailer. This means that the goods are
influenced by the temperature of this
unwanted air-flow. Experience show that if
unwanted air is floated into the conditioned
trailer, it takes a long time until the
required temperature is reached again,
especially in the back of the trailer. These
opened doors are CCP's where the temperature
can fluctuate and need to be studied
closely. Do you have this problem? See Triple
cooler and Strip
doors curtains |
|

.
|
| 4.
To strong air-flow of the cooling engine |
|

|
|
Air-flow
in
a standard conditioned trailer |
|
When the cooling engine is turned-on or if the
required temperature is to low in regards to
the warm air in the conditioned trailer, the
cooling engine will create a very strong air
flow which is blown over the goods. The
quality of some goods is yet being
influenced by this too strong air flow.
Salads or flowers for example cannot stand a
strong air flow and will show quality
damages. This too strong air-flow is a CCP
which influences the product quality and
needs to be studied closely. Do you have
this problem? See Triple
cooler |
|
|
.
|
| Tailor
made solutions and products |
|
The
products and solutions which are shown in the left
index, offer solutions against these CCP's and
offer possibilities to optimize the required
temperatures in the conditioned trailers. Also
applications are offered to create a bitemp or
multitemp situations which means that goods with
different temperatures can be transported in one
conditioned trailer. Krautz is developer and
producer of these products and offers tailor made
solutions. |
