What exactly is a “dry ice pack sheet” in 2025?
Fazit: A Trockeneisschütze is a flexible cooling material designed to maintain sub-zero temperatures during transport. Choosing the best dry ice pack sheet means finding one that balances cooling efficiency, Haltbarkeit, und Kosten.
Key differences vs gel packs and PCMs
| Kühlmethode | Arbeitsbereich | Typische Dauer | What changes your choice | Was es für Sie bedeutet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trockeneis-Packblatt (SAFT) | ~ 0 ° C. | 12–48H (with proper packout) | Insulation R-value, Flüssigkeitszufuhr, packing pattern | Niedrigere Kosten, flexible wrap, quick to deploy |
| PCM-Ziegel/Fliesen | −25 °C to +25 °C (verschieden) | 24–96H | Validation needs, Investitionen, pre-conditioning time | Tight control for audits and stability |
| Echtes Trockeneis (Co₂) | ≈ –78,5 ° C. | Highly variable (Sublimation) | IATA UN1845 rules, Entlüftung, carrier policies | Ultralow temp; hazmat training required |
Praktische Tipps und Ratschläge:
-
Essen & meal-kit lanes: Sheets are ideal for 0–10 °C when you line sides and cap the top.
-
Clinical 2–8 °C: PCMs reduce variability and simplify validation record-keeping.
-
Tiefgefroren: Use solid CO₂ only with proper labels and vented packaging.
Fall der realen Welt: A DTC seafood brand replaced bulk gel with sheet “wraps” and a top cap. Hold-time met a 36-hour lane, shipping weight dropped by 1.2 kg, and claims fell by half.
How do you evaluate the “best” sheet for your shipment?
Kurze Antwort: Score each candidate on five factors—thermal performance, Auslaufsicherheit, handling safety, regulatory fit, and total landed cost—and run a lane test. A simple 6–8 hour bench profile (ambient 23 °C, payload 2–8 °C) predicts most 1‑ to 2‑day scenarios.
Thermal performance checklist
-
Flüssigkeitszufuhr: 60–70× sheet mass in water is typical; drain excess to prevent sweating.
-
Freeze regimen: −18 to −25 °C for 24–48 hours; lay flat to freeze uniformly.
-
Pack density: Kopfraum füllen; sheet cells should face payload surfaces.
-
Validierung: Record core temp every 5 minutes with a logger to verify duration.
Leak and handling checklist
-
Use double-sealed or textile-reinforced cells to reduce punctures.
-
Bag sheets or use film liners to control condensation.
-
Train packers on scissors/box-cutter technique to avoid accidental nicks.
Safety and compliance in plain English
True dry ice is regulated as a Class 9 Gefahrgut (Und 1845). If you ship with solid CO₂, Folge HIER PI 954, Markieren Sie "Trockeneis" (oder „Kohlendioxid, solide"), die UN -Nummer, and the net mass in kilograms, und wenden Sie die Klasse an 9 Etikett. Ensure venting to avoid CO₂ buildup.
For water-based sheets (no CO₂), you avoid those hazmat labels, but you still need food contact documentation if touching edible goods, and good manufacturing and sanitation practices for pack rooms.
CO₂ exposure basics packers should know
-
CO₂ kann Sauerstoff verdrängen; OSHA TWA is 5,000 ppm; Idlh 40,000 ppm.
-
Dry ice causes frostbite on contact; use insulated gloves and eye protection.
-
Trockeneis niemals in luftdichten Behältern verschließen; pressure can build dangerously.
How to size your coolant in minutes
Start with your lane time plus a 20% Puffer. Multiply by your shipper’s heat gain rate (W/°C) and the temperature delta. Convert the watt-hours to the mass of frozen water required; then map to sheets by total hydrated mass.
Packing pattern that just works
-
Pre-chill shipper and payload.
-
Line sides with 2–3 plies; place a full sheet on top.
-
Use dunnage to eliminate air gaps; close fast to reduce meltback.
2025 trends that affect your choice
-
Meal-kit and DTC growth demands lighter, cheaper coolants with reliable 0–10 °C control.
-
Pharma adds traceability and validation pressure, increasing interest in PCMs for narrow bands.
-
Carrier enforcement of UN1845 labels stays strict; training and checklists reduce delays.
Quick progress highlights
-
Reusable PCM tiles extend hold times and reduce waste in validated lanes.
-
Reinforced ice blankets cut punctures in dense kitted boxes.
-
Bench testing with affordable loggers guides right-sizing and saves freight.
Quick comparison table (performance and cost signals)
| Faktor | Sheet‑forward packout | PCM‑forward packout | Was es für Sie bedeutet |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hold‑time stability | Medium | Hoch | PCMs smooth spikes; weniger Ausflüge |
| Up‑front cost | Niedrig | Mittel–Hoch | Sheets reduce capex; PCMs pay off in audits |
| Storage footprint | Niedrig (trocken, Wohnung) | Medium (pre‑frozen) | Easier to scale seasonal volume |
| SOP complexity | Einfach | Mäßig (pre‑conditioning) | Less training vs. timed staging |
FAQ
Q1: Are “dry ice pack sheets” the same as dry ice?
A: NEIN. They are water-based SAP ice blankets. True dry ice is solid CO₂ and regulated differently.
Q2: How long do sheets keep 2–8 °C?
A: In a medium EPS shipper, a full top sheet plus side plies often covers 24–48 hours, but validate your lane.
Q3: Can I use sheets with seafood?
A: Ja, if bagged appropriately. Keep direct food contact compliant and separate raw from ready-to-eat.
