Icy Pet Food Packaging

These Hydropac Ice Packs Work to Keep Pet Food Fresh During Shipping

These Hydropac ice packs have been announced by the temperature-controlled packaging solutions brand as a way to help improve the logistics related to shipping pet food. The ice packs are positioned by the brand to help with enhanced insulation to extend the cooling duration, while also providing improved resistance to leakage. The ice pack brings together two layers of material that has all four sides sealed to create ice in each individual compartment for greater control over size requirements.

Customer Experience Manager Cat Mitton commented on the Hydropac ice packs saying, "Our innovation in ice pack sealing technology is designed to address the specific challenges faced by the many industries that rely on quality and efficient cold chain transportation. With pet owners increasingly prioritizing the health and well-being of their furry companions, it's crucial for the pet food industry to uphold stringent standards in product safety and quality assurance and this includes transportation and packaging.”
