Thermal solutions
February 1st 2008

The Tranzcube solution from Polar Thermal Products offers a thermal pallet cover which attaches to a supplied reinforced thermal pallet creating a sealed unit to maximise temperature retention. This is suitable in a closed loop situation, especially where wooden pallets cannot be used. The normal pallet cover is available individually if no pallet is required.

The Multi Stack solution provides a sealed thermal pallet where existing pallets have to be used, whatever the type. A thermal base is put onto the pallet, followed by the product, then a thermal lid and finally a thermal wrap.

Temperature controlled logistics is becoming increasing challenging with tightening legislation. Many ambient goods now demand that the temperature is contained within certain limits. Independent tests have shown a temperature change of approximately 0.7ºC per hour – less if aided by ice packs. Thermal control is possible through the application of Polartherm, a triple insulation.

Developed using NASA technology, Polartherm is made up from an inner reflective layer, a hollow-fill fibre filler and a woven PVC outer - the result, a material that is reportedly tough, long lasting and lightweight.
