If you are in the food business, you have to make
your customers happy. You cannot possibly serve your customers food that is
thawed, melted or otherwise unusable. To ensure your food shipment arrive
fresh, packaging is very important.
In this blog, we will discuss few tips to package
and ship food effectively.
·
Choose the right
wrapping materials: To minimize
spilling and maximize temperature retention, start with plastic zippered bags
or plastic containers with secured lids. If you’re sending food in a breakable
container such as glass or pottery, wrap each securely with bubble roll and
surround them with foam peanuts. Don't use newspaper to wrap cold, insulated
materials, as it tears when it gets wet and doesn't provide enough protection.
·
Choose the right
box: If you’re looking to
pack fresh or frozen food, go in for a foam container or insulated corrugated carton.
Never reuse boxes. Go in for a new box for each food shipment. Reusing a box
could spoil perishables. Polystyrene foam, polyurethane foam and reflective
materials all reduce the transfer of heat. Consider placing a foam box or
cooler inside a corrugated cardboard box for shipping. The thicker the walls of
your container, the more likely the contents are to maintain a constant
temperature.
·
Choose the right
insulation: Proper insulation is
important when shipping seafood, meat, fruit and dairy products. When it comes
to shipping frozen foods too, care is important. You don’t want to end up shipping
melted or thawed foods. Dry ice is very effective at maintain
cold temperatures, but it can be dangerous to use. Wear gloves and goggles if
you choose to use it, don't let it touch any food directly, and leave room for
it to expand. Avoid using actual ice for anything but a drive across town when
making a personal delivery.
Keeping the above packaging advice will come handy when shipping fresh food or
perishables. Also, make sure the foods are shipped promptly. If you want to
make your customers happy, packaging is of utmost importance.
