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. More articles from Aerotrim-Polar Thermal Products: |
