8 Professional mobile refrigeration
The “Cold Chain” Temperature sensitive products (food, pharmaceuticals) must be refrigerated or frozen after processing and before shipment to inhibit spoilage, growth of pathogen or loss of potential (vaccines). From production to consumer a temperature-controlled supply chain (the “Cold Chain”) shall be settled. An unbroken cold chain is an uninterrupted series of storage and distribution activities which maintain a given temperature range.

Food hygiene and food transport legislation For us Europeans, the main regulator about food hygiene , pharmaceutical distribution and Cold Chain related issues is the European Union. The main norm about food hygiene is the Directive 93/43/EEC (The “HACCP” Directive: Hazard analysis and critical control points) updated the Regulation (EC) 852/2004 Annex II, Chapter IV of 93/43/EEC is dedicated to transport:
maintained in good repair and condition to protect foodstuffs from contamination and are, where necessary, to be designed and constructed to permit adequate cleaning and/or disinfection.
capable of maintaining foodstuffs at appropriate temperatures and allow those temperatures to be monitored Another norm of interest is the Directive 89/108/EEC, about quick-frozen foodstuffs for human consumption Article 5 1. The temperature of quick-frozen foodstuffs must be stable and maintained, at all points in the product, at −18ºC or lower, with possibly brief upward fluctuations of no more than 3ºC during transport.

Another very important norm about the transport of perishable items is the ATP agreement (United Nations / European Commission Inland Transport Committee: Agreement
the International Carriage of Perishable Foodstuffs and on the Special Equipment to be Used for such Carriage, ECE/TRANS/165). The ATP applies to the carriage of perishable foodstuffs performed on the territory of at least two Contracting States not only by road, but also by rail and by sea. In addition, a number of countries (like France, Italy, Spain) have also adopted the ATP as the basis for their national legislation. The ATP establishes the appropriate temperatures under which the various types of perishable foodstuffs should be carried. It also lays down the requirements for the equipment, including its refrigerating capacity, insulating capacity (“K” insulation coefficient) and efficiency of thermal appliances as well as the methods and procedures for measuring and checking them. The ATP agreement is the only norm that is setting “performance” values about the construction and insulation of “isothermal” vehicles and cargos. For such a reason ATP is becoming more and more a reference for the market.

Pharmaceutical logistic legislation An increasing number
medicinal products require controlled storage and transportation conditions of between +2ºC and +8ºC. Meanwhile, the effect of elevated temperatures on the chemical stability of medicines is well recognized by those in the supply chain, but elevated temperatures can also have an adverse effect on the physical properties of some formulation types. Separation of emulsion systems and sedimentation of active ingredients in suspensions and semi-solids are among the changes that can occur. Some companies do not pay sufficient attention to monitoring and controlling temperatures in their warehouses - nor do they have the right knowledge of the temperature distribution therein. On a sunny day in Summer, temperatures in a van can vary reach up +45ºC near the roof. European Legislation about the transport of pharmaceuticals is not so stringent like the one about food hygiene. The norm of reference is the Directive 92/25/EEC, with the relevant “Guidelines on Good Distribution Practice of Medicinal Products for Human Use” (94/C 63/03):
appropriately specialized means.

About blood products the norm of reference is the Recommendation R (95) 15 “Guide to the preparation, use and quality assurance of blood components”: Blood components are stored at +20°C to +24°C, at +2°C to +6°C or at different temperatures below 0°C. The containers used in transport should be well insulated, easy to clean and easy to handle. After collection, blood should be kept at a controlled temperature, between +2°C and +6°C. Validated transport systems should ensure that at the end of a maximum transit time of 24 hours the temperature should not have exceeded +10 °C. Alternatively, whole blood can be kept up to 24 hours in conditions validated to maintain temperature between +20°C and +24°C, a prerequisite for the production of platelet preparations from whole blood. Red cell components should be kept between +2°C and +6°C. Validated transport systems should ensure that at the end of a maximum transit time of 24 hours the temperature should not have exceeded +10°C. Transport by a non-refrigerated vehicle requires a cooled and insulated container.
13 13 Professional mobile refrigeration
Up to now the solution of choice for the transport of perishable items was the conversion of vans, with the use of insulated linings and refrigeration units. Costly solution if you have to transport only limited volume of goods, considering also the financial immobilization involved and the limited resale value of the used refrigerated van. A new solution for the transport of perishable items: the use of a mobile fridge/freezer, with professional specifications and 12-24V compressor on board of a standard van: flexibility and intelligent use of resources at its best. The professional mobile fridge can be used for the purpose loaded on the van, connected to the battery and properly fixed with straps to anchoring rings inside the van. Then easily unloaded to allow the use of the van for purpose others than for the transport of perishables.

The Euroengel concept To mix together the best DC compressor technology (Danfoss), the high insulation efficiency requested by “ATP” International norm, the ease of cleaning and hyigienization requested by HACCP norms, the set and control of internal temperature requested by “Cold-chain” norms, also adding clever details to help professional operators to manage their daily business. The result is a range of models with inner volumes from 22 to 915 litres, 12-24Vdc and 100-240Vac 50-60Hz voltage, reinforced PU insulation with thickness from 65 to 130 mm, internal temperatures adjustable down to
digital controller, based on rotomoulded single piece sturdy containers, easy to be cleaned, with internal dimensions according to food industry norms (Gastronorm, Euronorm).

Some info about Euroengel srl Euroengel was established in 1993 in Brescia (North of Italy) as a JV with Japanese companies for the assembly of small portable refrigerators for the European market with the use of a Japanese 12Vdc compressor. After the termination of JV contract operation was continued by Italian partners for the production
It was in 2000 that Euroengel produced the first small fridge by the use of rotational moulding technology. In 2005 the management decided to focus the activity of Euroengel on the very promising professional mobile refrigeration market, launching a 5 years investment plan that was including the re-organization of the production plant and the design and production of a complete range of models with professional features. With the starting of the production of the new F0915 and the completion of the new foaming hall, the first 5 years investment plan is now almost completed and the company is in the condition to play a major role in the world market.

Over the last few years the Euroengel units were tested and acquired by several top international customers, that were looking for professional tools able to satisfy their need of high performance flexible transportation of small quantity of perishable items in accordance to the Norms and Regulations of their market segment. Euroengel has been collaborating with Ferrero SpA since 2005. Hundreds of the 22 and 32 liters models are normally used by Ferrero’s lab personnel and by sales reps for the safe transportation of samples at the required temperature. 120 small Euroengel top loaders were acquired by SAAB Aerotech in 2009 and supplied to the Swedish Defence Forces; they are used for the transportation
by mobile medical
AAH is the leading UK distributor of pharmaceutical and healthcare products and services to pharmacy, hospitals and doctors. More than five hundreds of top loaders are daily used on board of standard vans for deliveries of sensitive medicines and vaccines. Gruppo Argenta, as most of the Italian vending companies, has been using Euroengel units for a long period of time. Hundreds of 140 liters fridges are used on board of standard vans for the transport of sandwiches, yoghurts and fruit salads used in the daily replenishment
