Keeping Cool with Thermal Pallet Covers

Thermal pallet covers, also known as insulated pallet covers, are specially designed covers to be placed on top of pallets of goods to protect temperature-sensitive goods such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and agricultural products from extreme temperatures during transportation. These covers create a thermal barrier, shielding the contents from heat, cold, and sudden temperature fluctuations.

For enhanced protection, a slip sheet can be used to fully enclose the pallet, ensuring consistent temperature regulation throughout the shipment. Standard sizes are available to fit most pallets, with options for custom sizing to meet specific shipping needs.

The covers help prevent heat damage in cross-dock shipping and on the tarmac.  Dual layer provides the strength and flexibility needed to resist punctures and withstand rigorous handling during transit, while also blocking light, UV, and odor transfer. The pallet covers are available with a bottom layer for full product enclosure, and each comes with easy peel-and-seal closures.

Thermal pallet covers are widely used across industries where maintaining temperature control is crucial, including food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical logistics.

By enclosing the pallet in a high-performance thermal radiant barrier, products are effectively insulated from external ambient temperatures, significantly slowing down the rate of temperature change and dampening the effects of fluctuating external conditions, whether heat or cold.

Use a slip-sheet underneath the goods to create a protective "cocoon" around the goods to reduce the speed at which the product's temperature adjusts to its surroundings, allowing it to maintain its internal temperature for a longer period. This delay in reaching thermal equilibrium, or homeostasis, with the ambient environment is crucial for preserving the integrity of temperature-sensitive goods, particularly during transport and storage, where external conditions can vary widely.
