Deliveries of fresh food ordered online are booming. Meal box suppliers such as HelloFresh and online supermarkets such as MyTime or AllYouNeed Fresh are using the Internet as a new distribution channel for their food \u2013 as are specialised suppliers of caviar, speciality meats and vegan products. Suitable cooling packaging is essential to ensure that these temperature-sensitive foods are kept cool in transit. As a specialist in this segment, ECOCOOL has developed \u2018Smartcooler\u2019 packaging to meet this need. Made of synthetic fleece, this mailing bag has outstanding insulating properties. Another of the new product\u2019s distinguishing features is its exceptional sustainability.<\/p>\n
The Smartcooler is a welcome addition to Dr Florian Siedenburg\u2019s product portfolio. \u201cDuring talks with customers, two things became clear to us. Firstly, there is a growing number of consignors who want to send \u2018heterogeneous\u2019 boxes. By this we understand packaging that is suitable not only for refrigerated products, but also for dried goods and even cold-sensitive products such as herbs.\u201d Solutions with separate insulated pouches in a large transport box \u2013 such as ECOCOOL\u2019s competitively priced \u2018Coolmailer\u2019 packaging \u2013 have proven to be highly effective for this type of shipment. Unlike fully cooled packages, every product can be transported in optimum conditions \u2013 this also cuts costs. \u201cThe second thing we are increasingly noticing is a higher demand for sustainable packaging materials. The Smartcooler synthetic fleece bag is the perfect solution, as it is made of 80 percent recycled PET bottles and is 100 percent recyclable,\u201d says Siedenburg. The structure of this bag means it has good insulating properties and is completely odourless. \u201cRight from the beginning, we were impressed by the technical properties of this solution and the value for money it offers,\u201d explains the expert. At present, there is a choice of three standard sizes (S, M and L).<\/p>\n
The Smartcooler\u2019s cooling performance is also impressive. As with all ECOCOOL products, the professionals carried out extensive climatic chamber testing to verify the Smartcooler\u2019s performance before launching it on the market. \u201cWe can say with a clear conscience that the Smartcooler is one of the best-performing cooling packaging solutions for food on the market,\u201d says the CEO. The experts from ECOCOOL tested the Smartcooler\u2019s performance in a 48-hour experiment using 1.5 kilograms of Coolpack cooling elements (three at 500 grams each) at temperatures ranging from 18 to 30 degrees Celsius (average temperature: 19.6\u00b0C). The result: with this combination, the Smartcooler achieved an excellent cooling time of 42 hours.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Smartcooler really doesn\u2019t have to fear comparison with commercial EPS boxes or other types of refrigerated packaging. We also make a point of advising our customers to use logistics providers that guarantee delivery within 24 hours,\u201d stresses Siedenburg. Quite apart from the performance of the cooling packaging, this is in the interest of the end-customers, who rightly demand particularly high quality when purchasing fresh foods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
