Customized Cold Chain Solutions

    The classic design in the Cold Chain shipping industry is an EPS insulated container containing a product that is kept refrigerated with gel packs and protected by bubble wrap. Although this pack out is a very tried and true method of shipping for food and pharmaceuticals, the one size fits all approach does not work with every client’s shipping arrangements. Problems can arise for clients that are looking to ship potentially hazardous materials such as dry ice, different sized payloads in one shipping container, and multiple temperature profiles in the same shipper such as frozen and refrigerated or refrigerated and controlled room temperature pack outs. Below are some specific instances where our design team was able to find a customization for our shippers that solved our client’s problems.
        One customizable solution that EFP has developed is the Ring Attachment that can be placed on a number of our shippers. The EPS rings fit between the shipper base and lid, and give an extra two inches of payload space inside. Leaving the ring off of the shipper also allows for two inches of space above the shipper inside of the carton that can be used to ship materials that do not need to be transported in a temperature controlled environment.
      The designers at EFP have the ability to add any panels, geometry, or customization to a shipper that can help a client reach their specific goals. If you are in need of a shipping solution that cannot be filled by the standard foam shipper, Contact Us today and our Center of Excellence design team can begin qualifying a solution for your packaging needs.
