Custom cold chain packaging built around your product
Bring together insulation, cooling media and a practical packout for your payload, temperature range, journey and handling needs. Tempk supplies the packaging system and technical support; you or your logistics provider arrange transport.
Four routes into a custom packaging system
Start with the part of the system you need. Each route covers a broad packaging family, so you can compare formats before discussing dimensions, materials, branding and packout details.

Gel packs, PCM packs and ice bricks
Configure coolant format, dimensions, fill, outer film, phase-change range, freezing method and placement for chilled or frozen packouts.

Boxes, liners, EPP and VIP systems
Match insulation format, internal volume, panel layout and closure to the payload, outer carton, route exposure and reuse plan.

Insulated bags and reusable containers
Plan capacity, insulation, access, carry features, cleanability and branding for last-mile handoff, healthcare kits and reusable programs.
Explore custom insulated bags
Thermal pallet covers
Specify cover dimensions, layers, openings, closures and printed identification for staging, cross-dock exposure and pallet handling.

A useful brief is more than a box size
A custom packout starts with what must be protected and what can happen between packing and receipt. These details narrow the right insulation, cooling media and packing sequence.
- Product and acceptable temperature range
- Payload size, weight and orientation
- Expected time and ambient exposure
- Handling, monitoring and reuse needs
From requirements to a repeatable packout
The steps stay practical: confirm the need, select a direction, evaluate samples and document the approved configuration before routine purchasing.
Define
Share the product, temperature limits, payload, journey and handling conditions.
Configure
Compare insulation, cooling media, dimensions, placement and branding options.
Sample
Check component fit, packability, labels, closures and warehouse handling.
Test
Evaluate the complete packout against a representative time and temperature profile.
Document
Record the approved parts, conditioning, loading sequence and acceptance checks.
Choose the requirement closest to your product
These solution pages explain common risks and packaging directions. Final component choices still depend on the actual payload, route and acceptance criteria.
Pharmaceutical and life science
Plan for defined temperature ranges, handling controls, monitoring and documented packout procedures.
View pharmaceutical packagingFood and meal delivery
Balance product condition, leakage control, condensation, pack speed and disposal or reuse.
View food delivery packagingFrozen products
Review insulation, deep-frozen media, dry ice compatibility and route exposure for frozen payloads.
View frozen packaging optionsLab samples and biologics
Consider payload separation, coolant contact, orientation, monitoring and controlled receiving.
Review lab sample guidanceUse a standard component or develop a custom program
Customization is useful when size, pack speed, branding, route exposure or repeatability cannot be met by a standard item.
Start with a standard product
Suitable when an existing size and material meet the need and your team already has a defined packout.
- Compare current product categories
- Request samples for fit checks
- Confirm compatibility with the full packout
Build a custom or private-label solution
Suitable when you need specific dimensions, materials, printed branding, packing instructions or coordinated components.
- Develop component and packout options
- Review sample and testing needs
- Document the approved configuration
Before you request a custom packaging proposal
Clear inputs help avoid unsuitable component choices and make sample or test discussions more useful.
What can Tempk customize?
Tempk can configure cooling media, insulated boxes and liners, reusable or single-use bags, pallet protection, component dimensions, coolant placement, printed branding and packout instructions. The practical options depend on the product, temperature range, route, handling process and planned order.
What information should I prepare for a custom packaging discussion?
Share the product type, acceptable temperature range, payload dimensions and weight, outer carton or container size, expected journey time, seasonal exposure, handling limits, monitoring needs and whether you need samples, testing or printed branding. If some details are unknown, Tempk can help identify what must be confirmed next.
Can Tempk guarantee a temperature or hold time before testing?
No fixed duration or temperature result should be assumed from one component alone. Performance depends on the full packout, including payload, insulation, coolant condition and quantity, packing sequence, ambient profile and handling. Confirm critical requirements with representative samples and a test plan before rollout.
Does Tempk provide cold-chain transport or delivery services?
Tempk supplies temperature-controlled packaging systems and related technical support. Your team or logistics provider arranges freight, carrier service and delivery. We can use your route and handling information to help plan the packaging and packout.
Send the details you already know
Tempk can help organize the packaging questions that remain. A first discussion does not require every answer, but product limits and real handling conditions should be confirmed before final approval.
