FAQ's about our Cool bags
When should I use insulated cool bags instead of wool thermal postal pockets?
Insulated cool bags are best suited for short-term temperature control where products are handed directly to customers, such as retail takeaway, farm shops and local food delivery. Wool thermal postal pockets are designed for courier or postal shipments where products need to remain chilled during longer transit times without reuse.
How long can Freshpac insulated cool bags keep products chilled?
Freshpac insulated cool bags are designed for short-term and repeat use, helping to keep food and drinks chilled for several hours when used correctly. Performance depends on factors such as ambient temperature, journey length and whether ice packs are used alongside the bag.
Are wool thermal postal pockets suitable for chilled food delivery by post or courier?
Yes. Wool thermal postal pockets are specifically designed for shipping chilled food products such as meat, fish and dairy. When combined with ice packs, they help maintain temperatures between +2°C and +8°C for up to 24 hours during transit.
How do these products support sustainable packaging choices?
Freshpac insulated cool bags are reusable and designed to replace single-use carrier solutions in retail and food service operations. Wool thermal postal pockets use natural, compostable wool insulation with a recyclable outer layer, offering a lower-impact option for temperature-controlled shipping where reuse is not practical.
How do I choose the right insulated format for my business?
Choosing the right solution depends on how products are packed, handled and delivered. Factors such as journey duration, reuse requirements, customer handover and transport method all influence which format performs best. Hydropac supports businesses in selecting insulated solutions that fit their real operational needs rather than relying on specifications alone.
