Secure transport of your valuable Frozen Goods cargo
Taiwan
Colombia
The air route from Taipei to Bogota is particularly advantageous for transporting fresh produce and frozen food, ensuring optimal temperature control throughout the journey. Utilizing air freight minimizes the time that perishable goods are exposed to varying temperatures, thereby preserving their quality and extending shelf life. This route also allows for swift access to the South American market, catering to the growing demand for high-quality chilled and refrigerated food options. Additionally, the air transport method significantly reduces the risk of spoilage, making it an ideal choice for sensitive products.
Taipei's Taoyuan International Airport is equipped with state-of-the-art cold storage facilities and handling systems specifically designed for perishable goods. This infrastructure ensures that fresh and frozen food is maintained at the required temperatures from the moment of departure. In Bogota, El Dorado International Airport boasts similar capabilities, providing advanced logistics support for the efficient distribution of chilled and refrigerated products upon arrival. Both airports facilitate seamless connections to local distribution networks, ensuring that fresh food reaches consumers quickly and efficiently.

Shipping Fresh food successfully demands a continuous cold chain. Use thermal containers with the right amount of gel packs for Chilled food or dry ice for frozen goods, pre‑chill products before packing, and choose a expedited service. Clearly mark boxes as “Perishable” and specify the required temperature so carriers handle them as Reefer cargo.
Yes, Frozen food can Usually be shipped with dry ice by air, but dry ice is regulated as a dangerous good. Airlines have limits on how much dry ice is allowed per package and per shipment, and labels must show the net weight of dry ice and UN1845 markings. Our compliance team recommends checking carrier and destination rules in advance and combining dry ice with insulated packaging to keep Frozen food at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may Exclude coverage for temperature-related loss on Perishable goods and frozen food. Insurance specialists generally recommend arranging a policy that specifically covers temperature deviation and spoilage, and declaring the full value of your Reefer cargo. Keep packing records and temperature logs; insurers often require proof that correct handling was used before honoring claims.
Most Chilled food should stay between 0–4°C, while many Frozen food products must remain at −18°C or colder. Exact ranges depend on the product type and local regulations. Always verify requirements for each item and specify the target range on booking instructions and labels so your Reefer cargo is set correctly.
You can sometimes mix Fresh produce and Frozen food in the same load, but only if your container or vehicle can maintain separate temperature zones. Chilled food typically needs temperatures above freezing, while Frozen goods must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, We recommend separating them into different temperature-controlled shipments to avoid freezing perishable goods or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh & Frozen Food requires strict temperature control during air freight to maintain quality. It is essential to use insulated packaging and dry ice or gel packs to ensure products remain within the required temperature range throughout the journey.
