# Reefer vs dry container for syrup exports: when is temperature control worth it?

Reefer adds cost and complexity, but a hot hold or a cold snap can change product quality. Where do you draw the line?

- Which products do you always ship temperature-controlled?
- How do you monitor in-transit temperature, and do you act on excursions?
- Has a dry container ever caused a quality claim for you?

Interested in the trade-off between cost and risk for bulk liquids.
