Our electric refrigeration tricycle will be a sustainable and energy-efficient way to transport and store temperature-sensitive goods. It will be equipped with a refrigeration system powered by lithium batteries, which will reduce the need for fossil fuels and minimize carbon emissions. It will be able to maintain temperatures as low as -20°C, making it suitable forapplications such as food and beverage transportation, healthcare, events, construction sites, and disaster relief.
The Koolboks Connected Solar Chiller is an upright see-through refrigerator with integrated batteries. It is designed for storing cold drinks. It offers four basic unique features.
24hrs refrigeration, thanks to the sun.
