Refrigerated Transport for Every Cold-Chain Industry in Queensland
Brisbane-based refrigerated transport for food service, fresh produce, dairy, seafood, meat and poultry, frozen foods, beverages, pharma and healthcare, floral and retail distribution — tuned to each sector's temperature, handling and timing.
Sector-aware cold chain
No two cold-chain industries share the same rules. Ramdas QLD tailors handling to each sector — HACCP-aligned routines for meat, dairy and food service; humidity-aware load planning for fresh produce and floral; deep-frozen discipline for ice cream and frozen ready meals; probe-logged chain-of-custody runs for pharma. Trailers are pre-cooled before loading, core temperatures are probed at pickup and delivery, door events are minimised, and changeover between sensitive loads is documented. Brisbane metro, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Toowoomba and regional Queensland — handled with the discipline your product needs.

HACCP-aligned handling
Pickup and delivery routines, hygiene changeover and load-segregation rules are built around HACCP principles for every sensitive-cargo run.
Probe-logged temperatures
Calibrated core-temperature probes are read at pickup and delivery — recorded, retained, and available on request as a verifiable cold-chain record.
Allergen and changeover discipline
Trailers are cleaned between allergen-sensitive, raw-meat and pharma loads, with documented changeover routines that protect product integrity.
