How Packaging Evolves

Biocooler® is an exciting new alternative to oil-based, EPS foam insulated shippers. This unique two-piece panel system was designed specifically for single-use, short-life-cycle packaging. It offers equal or better thermal values versus competing oil-based products used today. Biocooler is lightweight, rigid and form-fitting which allows for faster more efficient packouts. It is available in thicknesses ranging from 1/2″ to 1″, and 1-1/2″, or our thermal consultants would be happy to custom tailor a Biocooler insulated shipper for you.

Compostable or curbside recyclable? You decide.

Nature-Pack™ materials go beyond composting and provide a complete spectrum of disposal options. Whether the end user prefers to recycle it with the paper stream or compost it, there is no bad choice. Biocooler will even biodegrade in fresh or salt water without harm to marine life. This coveted “gold standard” means we make the only insulated shipper in the world to offer all of these benefits. Certified compostable ASTM D6400 and international certification EN 13432. All product claims are validated by TUV Austria (formerly Vincotte), the world leader in bioplastic standards.

Easy to Packout, Easy to Store, and Easy on the Environment

Biocooler insulated packaging Packout

Each Biocooler insulated panel system consists of an outer piece A) and an inner piece B) that will create a form-fitting cooler upon assembly. These foam pieces are flat and rigid but will fold into place along the scored side of the panels. The rigidity of Biocooler assists during the assembly by allowing the top panel to stay upright while the cooler is finished being packed out. By using our two-piece Biocooler system, you can triple the quantity shipped versus a traditional pallet of EPS foam coolers. Therefore, lowering your per unit costs significantly.
