Thermal pallet covers are crucial when you are shipping anything like pharmaceuticals, food, electronics, and cosmetics. These types of products are extremely vulnerable to temperature changes and can degrade or become in the wrong temperature environment. At Protek we offer several solutions for temperature control. Two of the best options are our SureTemp® Fiber and Bubble Pallet Covers. Each of these two covers offers a specific kind of protection, so it is important to understand the difference between the two.
SureTemp® Fiber Pallet Covers
Our SureTemp® Fiber Pallet Covers are designed to protect your products from the extreme temperature changes during shipping. They are made from a heavy-gauge polyethylene shell outer liner. The inner liner is made with synthetic hollow fibers. During the winter months, SureTemp® Fiber Pallet Covers protect the warmth of the product so it does not freeze during shipping. During the summer, it reflects the heat ensuring your product does not become too hot. SureTemp® Fiber Pallet Covers are completely reusable and can last over 10 years.
SureTemp® Bubble Pallet Covers
Our SureTemp® Bubble Pallet Covers also protect your vulnerable products from temperature changes. They are more lightweight than the fiber covers and are made with metalized aluminum film containing an inner layer of polyethylene bubbles. The bubbles work to trap the heat in the wintertime and provide insulation against the cold during the summer months. The SureTemp® Bubble Pallet Covers are also disposable.
How To Decide Between The Two
Deciding whether the SureTemp® Fiber Pallet Cover or the SureTemp® Bubble Pallet Cover is right for your needs is determined by a couple of factors:
- What are you shipping: Does your product need extra insulation against physical damage as well as temperature damage? The SureTemp® Fiber Cover may be best because it is thicker and provides more insulation. Are you shipping some products that don’t require temperature control in same load as those that do? The SureTemp® Bubble Pallet Cover may be best because it is more economical.
- What is the size of your load: Are shipping very large loads of the same product? The SureTemp® Fiber Cover will be more cost effective and offers more protection for larger loads. Are you shipping smaller loads? The SureTemp® Bubble Cover is more cost effective for shipping smaller loads.
- How often are you shipping: Do you ship daily? The SureTemp® Fiber Pallet Cover may be best because it is reusable. Do you ship quarterly or annually? The SureTemp® Bubble Pallet Cover may be best because it is more economical.
Both the SureTemp® Fiber Pallet Covers and the SureTemp® Bubble Pallet Covers will protect your vulnerable products. However, each has different benefits depending on what your shipping needs are.
