ThermoBox - Insulated Packaging

A sustainable paper-based alternative to EPS packaging

ThermoBox is an innovative and sustainable pack which keeps frozen and chilled goods fresh throughout the supply chain.

Made from a 100% paper-based combination of Hexacomb and corrugated, ThermoBox provides similar insulation properties to expanded polystyrene (EPS) boxes.  

For products that need to be temperature controlled, ThermoBox is therefore sustainable alternative to EPS as it is made from a renewable resource, recyclable and biodegradable.

ThermoBox can be manufactured bespoke to your size requirements without the need to invest in an expensive moulds as with EPS. As ThermoBox is delivered flat rather than assembled, logistical and storage space optimisations can be achieved leading to significant cost savings.

Due to the corrugated exterior, ThermoBox is fully customisable utilising various print finishes to include handling instructions, product/sustainability information or branding. This makes it an ideal solution for eCommerce.
