One of the main concerns for sellers and logistic companies is making sure that goods reach consumers in tip-top shape. Intense heat causes foods like chocolate and candy to melt. Extreme cold leads to liquids freezing, which in turn, results in the plastic bottles rupturing. The continually changing temperatures even make things like flour and sugar clump together. By utilizing high-quality safeguards, scenarios similar to these are avoidable. However, when no action is taken to protect shipments, not only do items not make it as advertised onto store shelves or into a person’s home, but the shipping company, or seller, also usually incurs costly expenses. More products have to become sent out to replace the ones in the botched delivery, and the delivery organization loses out on repeat business because of the failed attempt.
Innovative Tools For Protecting Perishables
1. Sure-Temp Bubble Pallet Covers
The covering features a metal aluminum film that reflects sunlight and minimizes temperature loss. Air filled polyethylene bubbles provide ideal insulation to trap warmth or cold, depending on the shipment. It is lightweight, easy to handle, and an excellent choice for keeping goods in a desirable state during transport or the loading and unloading processes. For instance, a pallet that is in the process of switching planes to continue its journey may get left out for an extended period in the hot sun. If this activity occurs without a cover, the perishables will ruin quickly. So, take an extra moment to wrap your goods and avoid the headaches that might come along if you don’t. Sure-Temp pallet covers are disposable, and they eliminate the hassle of having to keep up with bulky, folded coverings by letting folks just toss them when they are done.
2. Sure-Temp Fiber Insulated Thermal Pallet Covers
Much to the same degree as the bubble filled option, this covering also protects against heat and freezing. The outside shell is a heavy-duty woven polyethylene. It is heat sealed to a poly coated foil for additional strength and durability. Rather than being disposable, these pallet covers are sustainable with a lifespan of up to 10 years. It is thick, robust, and capable of handling heavy workloads in harsh environments without sustaining rips or tears. Low conductive synthetic hollow fibers are at the core and create a thermal barrier. This Sure-Temp cover provides the shippers with the peace of mind in knowing that their perishables will remain at a constant temperature.
