Woolcool insulated packaging for temperature-sensitive goods

Woolcool is an environmentally responsible insulated packaging product. Made of 100% sheep’s wool, a renewable resource that is biodegradable, sustainable and compostable, it can be used for transporting temperature-sensitive goods such as food, beverages, veterinary and human pharmaceuticals.

It comes flat-packed and reduces damaged goods due to the cushioning effect during transport.

The product keeps chilled items at the critical 5°C or lower for more than 24 h. Fewer ice packs are necessary, according to the manufacturer, making smaller deliveries more feasible and reducing the weight of transport.

The wool and the food-grade film in the product reduce condensation and remove humidity, preventing spoilage and maintaining the integrity of cardboard cartons.

The company offers a bespoke, customised ‘fit for purpose’ solution. Users have the flexibility to use smaller cartons for transport by packing more product into the boxes with less wasted air space. More cartons can thus be fitted on to trucks.

The company offers a customer recycling program.
