Available in many different sizes, insulated bulk containers are ideal for shipping a variety of products, including food, and are FDA/USDA approved. You’ll find that these containers provide adequate temperature control and protection in multiple applications.

Insulated containers are built tough and can be exposed to harsh weather conditions, in a variety of transportation modes, or on the packing plant floor. Each container is reusable, which makes them highly economical.

When necessary, specialty bulk insulated shipping containers are also available for applications such as defrosting or chilling, onboard handling, active transport, and the transport of frozen foods and dry ice. These containers are designed with triple wall insulation and can handle the most extreme conditions.
