Intermodal accounting
The CityTemp XL12 is not just a simple isothermal box: it is an autonomous and mobile refrigeration unit, able to adapt to several modes of transport.
Convert a light-duty vehicle into a refrigerated vehicle
The CityTemp XL12 allows you to instantly convert a standard utility vehicle into a refrigerated vehicle, without permanent modification or costly installation.
- No vehicle fit-out required: the CityTemp XL12 fits easily into the back of a van or light commercial vehicle (LCV). Reversible solution, the vehicle can be used for other missions when not in transport under controlled temperature.
CityTemp XL12 has autonomous refrigeration thanks to its passive cooling system based on eutectic plates. - Temperature maintenance without electrical connection is guaranteed for more than 48 hours.
Certified ATP, the CityTemp XL12 complies with the regulations for the transport of fresh food.
Provide intermodal logistics with cold storage → approach truck → micro-hub → cargo bike → final delivery
The CityTemp XL12 is also designed to fit into an intermodal logistics scheme, where multiple modes of transport are used to deliver goods to the end customer.
- Fresh food orders are prepared and loaded into CityTemp directly from a cold store located on the outskirts of the city;
- Thanks to the Dock & Go mobility system, CityTemps are easily transferred from the refrigerated dock to the approach truck which in turn transports them to the urban micro-hub;
- From the micro-hub, CityTemp are attached to K-Ryole cargo bike trailers with the Dock & Go system. The last kilometres are thus ensured in soft mobility without emissions and without load failure.
Duo CityTemp XL12 by COLD & CO / system Dock & Go, by K-Ryole
Thanks to the optimized Dock & Go mobility system, the CityTemp XL12 is compatible with the K-Ryole electric trailer, an innovative transport solution that allows effortless delivery in urban environments. The K-Ryole electric trailer automatically compensates for the weight of the load, offering optimal handling even with a large volume like the CityTemp XL12.
Quiet, agile and environmentally friendly, this technical duo adapts perfectly to low-emission zones (ZFE) and new sustainable transport requirements.
Operation and thermal performance
The CityTemp XL12 works in passive cold without the need for power supply thanks to the addition of pre-charged eutectic plates. It can accommodate up to 6 eutectic plates, offering great flexibility according to your refrigeration needs:
- 6 x 4 kg (530 x 325 mm) GN1/1 plates – Ideal for uniform cold diffusion over standard durations.
- 6 x 600 x 400 mm 6kg plates – Suitable for long distance deliveries and more demanding weather conditions.
The addition of these plates allows to extend the time of maintenance in temperature guaranteeing an uninterrupted cold chain whether for fresh agri-food products (between +0°C/ +4°C), fresh health products (between +2°C/ +8°C) or ambient (between +15°C/ +25°C).

Robust construction for intensive use
The CityTemp XL12 is designed with a monobloc technology of injected polyurethane (PU), offering superior strength and stability to conventional sandwich PU solutions. This one-piece structure ensures better resistance to shocks and vibrations, ensuring increased durability even in demanding logistic conditions.
Each component of the CityTemp XL12 has been designed for intensive use:
- Reinforced fasteners, hinges and latches designed to withstand the stresses of road travel, cycle logistics and repeated handling.
- Structure isotherme ultra-résistante, capable de maintenir une performance thermique optimale malgré les chocs et les variations de température.
- Adaptability to demanding logistics environments, from urban transport to long distance deliveries.
Regulation of food transport - ATP certified
The CityTemp XL12 is certified ATP (Agreement on International Transport of Perishable Goods and special equipment to be used for such transports), guaranteeing its compliance with the strict requirements of transport under controlled temperature. This certification, essential for the transport of sensitive food products, ensures that the CityTemp XL12 maintains optimal and safe thermal performance throughout the supply chain.
Classified in category D (<0°C), it is perfectly suited for the transport of fresh and chilled products requiring strict compliance with the cold chain.
Useful volume
The CityTemp XL12 offers a useful volume of 1000L, optimized to accommodate up to 12 boxes (standard logistics format 600 x 400 mm). This capacity allows efficient organization of loads, facilitating the handling and storage of heat-sensitive products.
- Internal dimensions: 1255 x 1045 x 815 mm
- Maximum capacity: 12 boxes, ensuring perfect compatibility with professional logistics systems
Double opening to optimize logistics
The CityTemp XL12 is equipped with a double-entry opening system with two doors, allowing maximum flexibility according to logistical constraints:
- Rear access – Ideal for conventional loading and unloading from a dock.
- Side access – Perfect for downtown deliveries, facilitating off-street unloading and quick access to products.

Weight
With a total unladen weight of only 80 kg, the CityTemp XL12 combines strength and lightness for a useful volume of 1000L. This low weight allows easy integration into light commercial vehicles (LCV) and cycle logistics trailers, without significantly impacting the vehicle’s Total Allowable Laden Weight (TTAC).
Maintenance
The CityTemp XL12 is easy to maintain on a daily basis.
With a smooth and waterproof inner coating, its inner surface does not retain dirt or moisture, allowing for quick cleaning without residue. A simple sponge stroke with soapy water is enough to remove the impurities. An integrated drain allows for easy discharge of the cleaning water. Its one-piece design with no hard to reach corners allows easy cleaning.
