Every chocolate manufacturer and retailer encounters the same basic problem during the hot summer weather, namely how to ship their products so they arrive at their destination in pristine condition. Chocolate has an extremely low melting point and this poses quite a problem for companies that ship these types of products during summertime. In order to prevent product degradation, chocolate must be shipped and stored at temperatures well below its melting point. And that’s where Protek Cargo can help. We know your company’s reputation relies on the quality of your products once they reach their destination.
So we provide our clients with more innovative methods for cost-effective, temperature-sensitive shipping. Standard containers and packaging offer no protection against the fluctuations in external temperatures. Since it is so sensitive to solar radiation, the best shipping method for chocolate-based products is the refrigerated container or trailer. But those containers or trailers come at a high cost, especially when you consider that the trucks hauling them run on diesel fuel. Not to mention the fact that you are always waiting for reefer unit availability and are slammed with price increases during the summer season.
Protek Cargo is the temperature-sensitive freight specialists and can provide you with different products that will ensure the safe shipment and delivery of your heat-sensitive chocolate items. The type of protective product is usually determined by the sensitivity of the cargo and the following factors:
- Amount of storage space available in the container or trailer
- Duration of the trip or the shipping time involved to the destination
- Route that is taken to the destination
- Season when the product is being shipped
Whether you use bubble foil blankets, insulating cargo blankets or pallet covers, or our Protek container liners, you have access to an unlimited inventory of these items and pay only one price no matter what time of the year you are shipping your chocolate products.
The main benefit to you is that your customers will be satisfied with the product when it arrives and you will be ensured of ongoing, repeat business whether it is with the retailer or the vendor. With the quality of products that Protek Cargo provides, you will have the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your products will be protected until they reach their destination. With the reliable, insulated shipping solutions that we provide, you should have no problem keeping your customers satisfied and maintaining your reputation in the process.
