The Dilemma: Sustainable Packaging Solutions or Temperature-Sensitive Packaging?
Maintaining product integrity during shipping and transportation has long been a critical challenge for temperature-sensitive goods.
Traditional packaging solutions aren’t always effective, leading to product spoilage, customer dissatisfaction, and heightened environmental concerns.
Some of the problems faced by businesses looking for temperature-sensitive and
sustainable packaging include:
Excessive Waste
Thermal packaging has been the go-to solution for sensitive items. Unfortunately, many of these materials generate a lot of waste after they’re discarded. As a result, one of the primary issues with commercial thermal packaging is waste.
For the most part, thermal packaging includes single-use materials like foam coolers and foil bubble. While effective at preserving their contents, these packaging options are among the
most prevalent pollutants due to their plastic compositions.
Ineffective Temperature Control
On the other end of the spectrum, we have sustainable packaging solutions. Made with recycled materials, many of these packaging products are biodegradable and include everything from
corrugated bubble wrap to recycled paper.
While these options have changed the game for sustainable packaging, their sustainability comes at the expense of temperature control.
While this doesn’t necessarily cause problems for many industries, it’s a deal breaker for businesses that ship sensitive and perishable items like food and pharmaceuticals.
Customer Dissatisfaction and Damaged Products
Ineffective temperature control can lead to significant product losses, cutting into profitability. However, there’s a bigger problem faced by businesses — the loss of customer trust.
Goods that arrive damaged or spoiled due to temperature fluctuations during transit often result in costly returns. Not only does this result in more inefficiencies. With more returns and requests for replacements comes more dissatisfaction with a business. Over time, this situation deteriorates to a point where customer trust is lost.
