7 TempStack. Intermodal Innovation from C.R. England. TempStack is the innovative, temperature-controlled intermodal network from C.R. England that offers significant cost savings, on-demand capacity, and a reduced carbon footprint, especially for perishable cargo. TempStack container-on-flatcar (COFC) technology double-stacks two high-volume, reefer containers on a railroad flatcar. With an extensive network, real-time load monitoring and an aggressive rate structure, TempStack delivers competitively priced, door-to-door shipping solutions that compromises neither quality nor service. Advantages of TempStack Containers Shippers are turning increasingly to containerized intermodal shipping as a practical, affordable way to address a variety of mission-critical supply chain issues. Here are three important reasons why TempStack Intermodal Network from C.R. England is an ideal solution for many shipping applications: Lower costs. Intermodal is an effective way to reduce the transportation component of your production costs. The significant line haul and fuel surcharge savings can drive down the cost of moving large volumes of product over long distances. TempStack container solutions increase that efficiency. Greater capacity. Capacity fluctuations that occur with economic cycles can play havoc with transportation strategies and budgets. This uncertainty can leave shippers scrambling for cost-efficient options. The Tempstack Intermodal Network is the solution for shippers who need reliable, ready capacity to address market opportunities without being exposed to spot market freight rates. A Powerful Intermodal Partnership C.R. England, the world s largest refrigerated transportation provider, has developed strategic partnerships with America s premier railroads to open up essential capacity across select expedited routes of the most important shipping lanes in the country. These alliances are responsible for rapidly building and deploying what will soon become the nation s largest refrigerated intermodal container fleet, supported by C.R. England-owned, lightweight drayage trucks. This drayage fleet provides the capacity to efficiently and effectively move loads between rail ramps and their final destinations. Reduced carbon footprint. Every load that travels by rail is one less truck on the highway. That reduces fuel costs, carbon emissions, and congestion, while it contributes to safer roads. On average, loads converted to Intermodal result in a 60% carbon footprint reduction. There s no better way to meet mandated green transportation initiatives than through an intermodal transportation program from C.R. England C.R. England, Inc.
