Transporting produce used to be nothing more than a means of getting cargo from Point A to Point B, but now it's an opportunity to substantially improve the profitability of your business. That's because a remarkable Carrier® innovation - the SmartAir® System - that can bring you an unprecedented range of benefits.

• Reduce your cost per box for processing perishables every time you ripen, precool or precondition a load.
• Make transportation a value-added profit center. The SmartAir System turns transportation into a value-added proposition by providing in-transit processing that otherwise would have been
  done in costly, land-based facilities.
• Increase cash flow by minimizing the time between harvest and customer purchase.
• Reduce overhead costs by consolidating or eliminating distribution center operations.
• Improve freight density versus container-delivered products — more product per shipment means lower overall freight costs.

• Eliminate transport-equipment and driver downtime caused by waiting for processing at the source of produce. Optimize product temperatures while in transit.
• Reduce shrinkage and extend shelf life by minimizing handling, and by precisely maintaining critical shipping and processing conditions.
• Build uniformity into the system. Achieve new quality standards by eliminating temperature variation, and precisely controlling product temperature and heat-generating respiration.
• Enhance customer satisfaction with produce that’s fresh and in the best possible condition.
