Cold Chain Solutions
Online sales of perishable items are growing and increasingly customers are becoming more aware of, and are indeed, expecting more sustainable packaging with their deliveries. Yet, when transporting fresh, frozen, or chilled foodstuffs, the issue of temperature and preservation of the produce adds an extra dimension to choosing the best sustainable solution for your business.
Traditional solutions such as EPS cannot be recycled at kerbside, an important factor when delivering items to consumers' homes; additionally, these solutions are bulky and can take up precious space in businesses, warehouses and distribution centres.
Paper provides the solution to these issues - a natural insulator - it not only produces results on par with the traditional solution but are also flexible, easily kerbside recyclable, and can be packed flat - reducing the amount of storage needed. The solution also has the aesthetic appeal that matches consumers' needs and expectations.
