What is a thermal container?

Aug 29, 2024 | Blog | 0 comments

A thermocontainer is a product made of (polystyrene foam with a thickness of 15 mm to 50 mm) with heat-insulating properties and a tight-fitting lid. It should be remembered that the thermocontainer is a passive method of maintaining the temperature inside the thermobox itself. Cold accumulators or heat accumulators will help you achieve the required initial temperature inside the thermocontainer, depending on the temperature regime you need. Thermocontainers in medicine. Thermal containers are often used in medicine. Medical thermocontainers are used for:

  • Transportation of thermolabile medicines and drugs;
  • Transportation of blood;
  • For storing thermolabile drugs in case of emergency. For example, in case of power supply problems.

Thermoplastic container made of foam. Styrofoam thermo containers are an excellent choice for transporting heat-sensitive products. Styrofoam thermoboxes have a number of advantages over other types of thermoboxes. Namely:

  • Low cost of the thermal container;
  • Low level of hygroscopicity;
  • Excellent heat capacity;
  • In addition to protection against ambient temperature, it provides additional protection against damage;
  • Low weight
  • etc.

How long does a thermal container last?

Let us answer the most popular question from our customers. How long does a foam container last? Let’s look at all the factors that affect the life of a foam container:

  • Wall thickness of the thermal container;
  • Ambient temperature;
  • The type and number of cooling elements that provide cooling for the products inside the container;
  • The required temperature inside the thermal container.

Let’s take the T-PACK thermal containers as an example. Recommended timeframes for ensuring a stable temperature:

  • Thermal container with a wall thickness of 15 mm – up to 24 hours;
  • Thermal container with a wall thickness of 30 mm – up to 36 hours;
  • Thermal container with a wall thickness of 50 mm – up to 48 hours (can be used with dry ice)
