US-based MP Global Products’ division ThermoPod has introduced thermoKeeper packaging liners for extended time frame mail order shipments of chocolates, pies & cakes, and other temperature sensitive foods to save pallet and shelf space to the retailers and fulfillment houses.
ThermoKeeper's patented super thick insulated packaging liners are said to be resilient and pliable, ship flat to the fulfillment houses and retailers, store flat until ready for use, and assemble quickly into packaging designed to fit comfortably in shipping boxes.
The insulated box liners are user-friendly alternatives to space occupying foam coolers which can crack, chip, or break even before being fully packed and sealed.
ThermoPod's liners are made from a blend of recycled pre-consumer natural textile fibers formed into a soft flat panel laminated between two films, one perforated and the other solid, enabling optimal performance with shipper's choice of coolant.
ThermoKeeper packaging insulation also includes an EPA-approved anti-microbial additive for cross-contamination prevention and super absorbent fibers for containment of accidental spills or undesirable condensation from thawing gel packs.
When ready for use, ThermoKeeper easily assembles in two easy steps into an air-tight, stand-up container with a full flap-over lid customized to fit inside the customer shipping boxes.
The mailers and packaging liners are disposable with ordinary trash, though non-compostable as they are made of a biodegradable cotton insulation which can biograde within a year.
