Do you stick products inside boxes and ship them to peoples’ addresses? How about goods by the pallet load? Do you stick them in the back of a box truck and transport them to new locations? Or, what about full trailer loads? Do you drive a tractor-trailer moving items from place to place? If you answered yes to any of these questions, and the goodies you ship can be harmed by extreme heat, you need to do your best to protect them. The following three solutions should be able to help you protect perishables.


Insulated Box Liners
Our insulated box liners turn standard UPS, USPS, and FedEx boxes into insulated shipping boxes. They are lightweight and fit inside or around the containers. That means you can install them however you choose and send them on their way. In addition, the insulated box liners are for single-use, so customers don’t have to return them to the sender. You, the seller, simply ship them, and you’re done. There are insulated box liners available with single-bubble insulation, which primarily protect against heat. However, we also have double-bubble insulation options if you need something for heat and cold.
Insulated Pallet Covers
If you regularly carry fruits, veggies, meal kits, or other types of perishables by the pallet load, it is vital to protect them from the heat, so they don’t wilt and turn to mush. It may even be necessary to safeguard the products from the cold in some cases. After all, if they freeze and then defrost, that might change their tastes, textures, and smells. Our SureTemp Premium single-bubble pallet covers are lightweight, designed for single-use, and offer heat & cold protection. Meanwhile, the double-bubble insulated coverings are also lightweight and offer heat & cold protection. But, these units have higher tensile strength and are meant to be used more than once.
An Elite Container Blanket
Last but certainly not least, do you carry pharmaceuticals, chemicals, or something else in the back of a tractor-trailer that hot temperatures can harm? Sure, it’s wintertime now, but much of the United States is unseasonably warm. You can use a SureTemp Elite Container Blanket to create temperature zones in your trailer at any time of the year. The 150 GSM model is heavy-duty, reusable, and protects against heat and cold. This unit fits standard 53-foot intermodal containers or OTR shipments. However, if you need something different, custom sizes are also available.
