Paper Cooler

Customers are looking for more sustainable packaging materials to reduce the climate impact of their transportation. Our Paper Cooler is a fully recyclable paper-based container for shipping temperature-sensitive products.

Cold shipments in Life Sciences are shipped in expanded polystyrene (EPS) boxes with cold blocks and dry ice.

However, EPS is slow to degrade and can leach chemicals into the environment, harming water sources.

EPS manufacturing is a large creator of hazardous waste and greatly contributes towards global warming.
