Thermo King Berlin Transportkälte GmbH

What Thermo King Berlin Transportkälte GmbH does

Thermo King Berlin Transportkälte GmbH is a regional German dealer and service partner for Thermo King transport refrigeration systems, headquartered in Ahrensfelde near Berlin and operating for more than 30 years. The company sells, installs, converts, and services transport refrigeration units, climate control systems for buses and rail vehicles, and mobile compressed air/power generation systems, serving logistics and distribution operators, pharmaceutical transporters, public transit operators, and construction/service fleet owners across the Berlin/Brandenburg and Saxony-Anhalt regions through three fixed service locations (Ahrensfelde, GVZ Großbeeren, Magdeburg) and mobile service vehicles.

The technical portfolio centers on Thermo King branded products including the E-500E fully electric refrigeration unit for e-LCVs, the A-500 Whisper Pro ultra-quiet trailer unit compliant with PIEK 60 dB(A) noise standards, and the AxlePower kinetic energy recovery system that powers trailer cooling from axle motion. Supporting products include bus/rail HVAC systems, Kühlfahrzeugbau (conversion of vans into refrigerated vehicles using insulated GFK panel kits with +15°C to -18°C temperature range), and Air Products (VR-70 and M-86 mobile compressors, GHH RAND silo compressors). Connected Solutions telematics provides remote temperature and operational monitoring, and PharmaAssist addresses GDP-qualified pharmaceutical cold-chain requirements.

The business model combines one-time hardware sales and vehicle conversions with recurring service contracts (ThermoKare maintenance plans, PharmaAssist, premier+ fleet financing) and a 24/7 emergency breakdown service (Notdienst). Revenue is generated from new equipment sales, custom vehicle builds, repair services, and subscription-style maintenance agreements, with all pricing quote-based rather than publicly disclosed. The company operates as a private German limited liability company (HRB 5365) managed by Frank Felger, with 7 employees and no disclosed parent company, external investors, or revenue figures.
