Fruits are some of the most sensitive items to ship and are often shipped literally across the globe. Shipping temperature sensitive products, however, does not require expensive, high-tech packaging. In fact, passive temperature control may be a better option for shipping produce. Here’s why:
Simple But Cost-efficient
Passive temperature control systems are made with lightweight materials that regulate products’ temperatures by keeping external heat or cold out. These systems are lightweight and thinner than most active temperature control systems that, in addition, need to be hooked to electricity at all times. Overall, passive systems offer savings on costs and space.
Low Barrier To Entry
As explained earlier, passive temperature control systems are simpler than active systems. As such, passive systems are much more affordable and, therefore, perfect for small businesses and startups. Long-term costs are also lower since they are durable and reusable.
Reusable
If you are shipping temperature sensitive products, you are likely shipping all year round. Passive temperature control products, such as our Pallet Cover, is made with high strength materials that are durable. These items are made to be reused—and will stay as effective after numerous uses.
Durable And Low Maintenance
Our pallet covers are made with high-quality high strength materials that insulate products effectively. We use a reflective metalized film fused with advanced non woven PET Core insulation sealed in by a layer of white PET. These materials are not only effective at controlling temperature but are also tear resistant. With a lifespan of 10 years, these insulation covers are made to withstand almost anything that happens during shipping.
Temperature is only one of the many things that need to be considered when shipping fruits. Shippers also need to protect fruits physically. Passive temperature control, serving mostly as covers or blankets, allow shippers to package their fruits correctly so that it arrives at the destination in perfect condition. Shipping temperature sensitive products does not need to be complicated. Contact us to find a cost-effective solution to your shipping needs.
