No im not talking about transporting “hot” goods for shifty shaun… 
Obviously you can have things transported cold or “ambient” or whatever its called.
But is there a sector in the haulage industry that specialises in transporting goods/items that require keeping at a constant high temp e.g. 50c+, 90c+ etc etc ?
Are there any things that do need transporting at a high temperatures??
It was really boring on the M1 today, as you can tell.

i guess. what i kinda meant was shipping from say bristol to leeds in a trailer down the motorway etc, unless they ship melted tar across the country 
bitumen??
I’ve carried computer kit in heated trailers, between this country and various others including Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Denmark. I used to pull a trailer which had a small Thermo King unit on the headboard, the body and doors of the trailer was the same as a fridge trailer but the Thermo King only went from 0 to +30 degrees.
I used to get loads of comments from other drivers along the lines of - “Your boss too tight to buy a proper fridge then?” I always replied it’s not a fridge, with no further explanation, which generally left them scratching their heads. On occasion I did say it was just a fake so I could get away with running on Sundays and holidays, more than a few bought that explanation.

Factory I’m working out of just now has send machines to LUX that have to be set at 20 deg c
black oil for heating systems
i’ve done large heavy crankshafts into the place at ayr that I can’t remember the name of now, and because they were so urgent we often loaded them hot in germany, dunno how hot, maybe 50oC on the surface, but only on open lowloaders
you do sometimes see heanor haulage with “hot boxes” on up and down, transporting steel billets and blooms which are loaded as hot as possible to save ‘soaking’ or reheating costs at their destination before being rolled or otherwise worked
Elevated Temperature Material could be liquid sulphur, bitumen, resin, oils and detergents. One particular product I carried regularly was Rosin which comes from trees. Distilled turpentine leaves Rosin too.
It was loaded into a tank container at 240’c and kept heated by pumping oil around the coils as superheated steam would cool the product down too much.

I’ve loaded rebar out of Cardiff which was still bright orange, does that count?
Ink,thick horrible gooey stuff for newsprint,if it’s not hot it wont pump out.
There are a number of commodities that are carried ‘hot,’ mostly in road tankers, but some are also carried in heated IBCs.
When carrying ‘hot’ loads, the paperwork ususally includes either the words ‘hot’ or ‘molten.’
Some examples: Molasses, some Adhesives, some Inks, some Paints, Bitumen and some chocolate, but there are many others.
Vehicles carrying such loads may be required to display the ‘hot’ mark as posted by Wheel Nut above.
Sometimes, due to the temperature,the goods may fall to be regulated by ADR as UN Class 9, even though the goods may not be regarded as dangerous in their normal ambient state.

If the chocolate is hot, it will we well fubared
28’c - 32’c max
I have two points where I worked for the 21 years we carried
products that were in these temp ranges -176 up to220
the cold products were gas in special tanks,for that job,
and the Hot goods were in tanks that the firm had
designed and then built for them .
we heated the tanks up with steam at 18bar plus , and this was
for tree resin as well , The firm runs all over the place ,
even as far as Minsk with hot products,
