Shipping mixed temperature controlled goods with Thermal Pallet Covers
Product Spotlight: ThermoCover – the leading Insulated Pallet Cover
Struggling to ship your temperature-sensitive goods? Wrap-it with ThermoCover & it takes care of the rest!
At Gilmores, we pride ourselves on offering quality and innovative products to support the needs of our customers. As leaders in industrial packaging, here is a great innovative solution to support transporting temperature-sensitive goods.
The Gilmores team have developed the ThermoCover – the Insulated Pallet Cover which is being used as an alternative to transporting Frozen goods in a Frozen goods truck. As we know, a Refrigerated vehicle uses approximately 50% more fuel to run. Further, the ThermoCover saves in the area of fuel, as Shipping Trucks can be sent Full rather than Half-filled due to goods needing different controlled temperatures.
The insulated pallet cover saves you and your customer financially, as well as helping the Environment with less emissions by maximising the use of Fully-loaded trucks.
Our ThermoCover works by harnessing the power of the air by reflecting damaging & harmful solar rays
Michael, Sales Manager at Gilmores, says:
ThermoCover has a 5-layer thermal wall designed to best protect your product. The 5 layers combine to provide remarkable temperature control. These amazing properties now makes it possible to ship Chilled Goods in a Non-Refrigerated vehicle …
As the insulated pallet cover comes in 5 different standard sizes and with the option of custom sizes available, various companies are using ThermoCover to ship Products side-by-side even though they require different temperatures. The option of ‘mixing’ Frozen, Cold, Cool and Dry Goods in the one shipment is now possible. You are now able to maximise your shipping space to its full potential.
