Based on type segment market includes refrigerated warehouse and refrigerated transport. Refrigerated warehouse are majorly preferred for cold chain logistics in China. Refrigerated warehouses have a large capacity for storing perishable items. Their capacity to store huge amounts of products while maintaining particular temperature and humidity conditions is critical for satisfying the storage space need in a continually developing market. Refrigerated warehouses strategically situated throughout China, particularly in major logistics hubs and urban centers, improve accessibility for manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. Because to this closeness, transportation times and expenses are reduced. The rising urbanization of China, as well as the rise of e-commerce platforms, has increased demand for cold storage facilities. These warehouses aid in the transportation of perishable items to urban consumers, as well as addressing the demands of online grocery platforms and retail stores. Based on temperature type segment market includes frozen and chilled. Frozen refrigerated type is common for cold chain logistics in China. China has a high demand for frozen items such as fruits, vegetables, meats, and seafood. The frozen refrigerated kind exactly meets the temperature standards required to maintain these products quality and safety during shipping and storage. China is a major producer and consumer of seafood around the globe. Frozen refrigerated logistics are critical for maintaining the freshness and quality of seafood items as they travel from fishing ports to markets across the country and for export. With the rise of e-commerce and online grocery platforms, frozen refrigerated logistics are becoming increasingly important for delivering frozen foods straight to consumers homes. These logistics ensure that products are delivered frozen and safe for consumption.

Based on technology segment market is categorised into dry ice, gel packs, eutectic plates, liquid nitrogen and quilts. Dry ice technology is commonly used for management of cold chain logistics in China. Dry ice, or solid carbon dioxide, is exceptionally successful at maintaining ultra-low temperatures, making it ideal for transporting perishable commodities that require extremely cold storage. In the pharmaceutical business, dry ice is often used to transport temperature-sensitive drugs, vaccines, and biological samples that require extremely low temperatures for preservation. With the rise of e-commerce and quick delivery services, dry-ice technology is being used to convey frozen and perishable goods directly to consumers' homes, ensuring that the products remain frozen during transit. The application segment of the market includes dairy and frozen desserts, pharmaceuticals, process food, meat, fish and seafoods, bakery and confectionery, fruits and vegetables, and others. Meat, fish and seafood application is among the key application for cold chain logistics in China. China's population has an increasing appetite for meat, fish, and seafood due to rising incomes and evolving dietary preferences. This demand fuels the need for efficient cold chain logistics to maintain the freshness and quality of these perishable goods. China plays a substantial role in the global export of seafood and processed meat products. Cold chain logistics ensure that these perishable goods maintain their quality during transportation to international markets, including the United States, Japan, and Europe. China's rapid urbanization has influenced changing dining habits, with a rising preference for fresh and high-quality ingredients, including meat and seafood. Cold chain logistics facilitate the availability of these products in urban markets.
