Summer heat in Dubai is a serious risk in the case of tires blowing out as well as cargo spoilage. This is the way we can make your supply chain cool.
During the hot days of the summer season in the UAE, the temperature usually climbs up to over 45 degrees Celsius—and more. This is not a mere inconvenience to the logistics and supply chain sector, but it is a genuine operational predicament. Whether you're transporting sensitive food items, electronics, or pharmaceuticals, temperature-controlled cargo shipments in Dubai are no longer a luxury—they’re a necessity.
We are experts in countering logistics obstacles involving heat at INC Shipping, which is supported by superior temperature management, the utilization of strategic assisted maintenance of the fleet, and the highly trained operations team. Now, let us see what impact extreme heat can have on logistics and how our team responds to it one step ahead.
Challenges of Road Freight: Tire Blowouts & Engine Overheating
The number-one killer of ground transportation is heat. The couple of high pavement temperatures and underinflated tires is a formula for road freight havoc. Blowouts, engine strains, and evaporated fuel also add up to delays, thrashed items, and expensive repair expenses.
This is the reason why at INC Shipping we impose:
- Vigilant vehicle tire pressure tests prior to departure
- Concepts of long-range tires in heavy-duty trucks to resist heat
- Last week (-1), we mentioned project ASTRAHAN, a possible candidate in the tire household that might end up in the budget. As we had talked, there have been investments in this project by the private sector as well to come up with alternative means of making tires heat-resistant whereby manufacturers of tires will be willing to invest.
- Preventive diagnosis of the car in time in order to avoid overheating of the engine
We take care of things as well as transport. Our temperature-controlled cargo shipments in Dubai operate under strict quality assurance to prevent temperature spikes or transport breakdowns.
Air Cargo: Handling Slowdown by Heat
The temperatures of the tarmac exceed levels of safety in extreme heat for the ground crew members, equipment, and cargo, reaching up to 60 degrees Celsius or even higher. This may delay the loading/offloading of air cargo, particularly that which should be handled under controlled temperatures.
Our solution?
- Temperature-sensitive air cargo priority processing
- Fast-track processing of temperature-sensitive air cargo
- Direct cargo bay transfer is the way to reduce exposure to hot temperatures
- Ground support of air freight that is cold compatible
Our trained airport logistics staff are equipped to handle these heat-specific conditions, ensuring temperature-controlled cargo shipments in Dubai arrive safely and on schedule.
Ocean Freight: Goods at Risk of Being Temperature-Sensitive
Although ships are not as affected by the external temperature on the sea, the port conditions and the variation of temperature of containers may still contribute to sensitive cargos such as
- Pharmaceuticals
- Perishable food
- Body products and cosmetics
In order to safeguard your shipments, INC Shipping offers:
- Constant temperature containers (reefers). Refrigerated containers can be kept at a constant temperature.
- Practice of pre-cooling prior to loading of meat
- Round-the-clock tracking of temperatures during sea transport voyages
With demand rising for temperature-controlled cargo shipments in Dubai, we’ve invested heavily in reefer technology and smart monitoring systems to ensure zero temperature deviation throughout transit.
