Freezer Blocks: Reliable Cold Chain Cooling for Food & Pharma

Why Temperature Control Matters

Freezer Blocks
When shipping vaccines, seafood, or fresh meals:
• One degree too warm = spoiled goods
• Temperature swings = failed deliveries
• Ice melts too fast in summer heat
That’s where freezer blocks (ice bricks) save the day – they’re the steady cold keepers for sensitive cargo.

How Freezer Blocks Work
Think of them as thermal batteries:

  1. Freeze solid (-18°C or custom temps)

  2. Absorb heat during transit (slower than ice)

  3. Hold temperature 2-5x longer than gel packs
    No messy leaks – just reliable cooling in:
    • Insulated boxes
    • Medical shippers
    • Food delivery bags
