FAQ's on chilled food shipping
How do you keep food at the right temperature during shipping?
Maintaining the correct temperature in chilled food shipping relies on high-quality insulated packaging and effective cooling agents. At Hydropac, we use gel ice packs, water-based ice packs, and hard shell ice packs alongside insulated containers like EnviroCool and ReflectiveAir. These solutions ensure food stays within the optimal temperature range for safe transport.
What are the best packaging materials for chilled food transport?
For temperature-sensitive food products, materials that provide high thermal insulation and leak-proof protection are essential. Our FreshPac range includes eco-friendly insulation, reflective materials, and air-based technology that minimise heat transfer. Coupled with airtight seals and watertight liners, these packaging materials help maintain freshness.
Can chilled food be shipped internationally?
Yes, but international chilled food shipping requires careful planning. Factors like customs regulations, transit times, and cold chain management play a role in preserving food quality. Hydropac offers bespoke packaging solutions that cater to long-haul shipping, ensuring food remains safe, even during extended journeys.
How sustainable is chilled food packaging?
Sustainability is a growing priority in cold chain logistics. Hydropac leads the way with recyclable materials, biodegradable insulation, and eco-conscious gel packs. Our solutions, like EnviroCool and RecycleAir, provide high-performance insulation without excess plastic waste.
What role does packaging play in food safety?
Packaging is critical in preventing contamination, leakage, and temperature fluctuations. Using properly sealed containers and food-safe cooling methods reduces bacterial growth and extends shelf life. Hydropac’s seal through water technology enhances hygiene by eliminating potential leaks and ensuring sterile cooling solutions.
