Managing the cold chain in a changing world
As the European leader in the rental of refrigeration solutions, Petit Forestier is gradually asserting its international influence in the preservation of perishable products. Whether in the food processing, pharmaceutical or logistics industries, optimal cold management is essential to guarantee the health safety and quality of goods.
In a context where regulations are changing rapidly and the energy transition is becoming a global priority, Petit Forestier is investing in sustainable and efficient solutions to meet the new challenges of the sector.
How does Petit Forestier, the cold chain expert, control the cold chain?
Controlling the cold chain is based on several pillars: its technical expertise, its network of partners and its commitment to research and development.
A demanding and constantly evolving regulatory framework
Temperature-controlled transport is governed by strict international regulations, imposing high standards on the design and maintenance of refrigeration equipment. The ATP Agreement, which regulates the cross-border transport of perishable goods, defines precise criteria to ensure the efficiency of refrigerated vehicles and containers.
Beyond these requirements, Petit Forestier is actively committed to certifying its equipment in accordance with ISO, European and international standards. This rigour guarantees a uniform quality of service and thus reinforces our position as market leader.
Refrigeration solutions tailored to the needs of professionals

Petit Forestier offers a wide range of refrigerated vehicles, from small vans to heavy goods vehicles, designed to meet the specific needs of each sector of activity. The brand collaborates with the biggest manufacturers such as Renault Trucks and Iveco for the design of chassis, on which Lecapitaine adapts high-performance and eco-responsible refrigeration solutions, integrating cooling units such as those of Carrier and Thermo King.
A flexible range of refrigerated containers
Petit Forestier refrigerated containers can be adapted to the requirements of temporary or long-term storage. Available in several ranges - Premium, Special and Maxi Special - these solutions optimise cold chain logistics, particularly for the food and pharmaceutical industries.
