SOLUTIONS
E-commerce
The rapid growth of e-commerce food delivery has created new challenges in temperature-controlled shipping. At Inter Fresh, we provide specialized e-commerce packaging solutions for online food retailers who need to deliver fresh, frozen, or temperature-sensitive products directly to consumers without refrigerated vehicles.
Meeting e-commerce challenge
Online food retailers face specific challenges that traditional food distribution systems don’t encounter. Shipping perishable products through standard delivery networks requires exceptional temperature control without the benefit of refrigerated vehicles. Maintaining temperature integrity throughout entire delivery windows is essential, especially when exact delivery times can’t be guaranteed.
Today’s consumers also have high expectations for sustainability alongside premium unboxing experiences. Balancing these factors with cost-effectiveness presents a significant challenge that our e-commerce packaging solutions are specifically designed to address.
Complete e-commerce packaging solutions
Insulated packaging options
We offer several insulation solutions perfectly suited for e-commerce food delivery to meet different business needs and sustainability goals. Our EcoCoolbox with paper fiber insulation provides an eco-friendly alternative to traditional EPS, combining performance with improved environmental credentials. For flexible application, our Eco Thermaliner (Klimaliner) creates effective thermal barriers that can be adapted to various product configurations.
Businesses implementing return logistics can benefit from our durable and reusable polypropylene channel plate boxes, which provide excellent insulation across multiple delivery cycles. For specific requirements where traditional solutions are still preferred, we continue to offer EPS boxes with proven performance.
Cooling elements
Our range of cooling solutions can be tailored to your specific delivery timeline to optimize performance and cost. Standard gel packs work effectively for typical 6-hour delivery windows used by many local delivery services. For longer transit times, our Ice Pack XL provides extended cooling with the added benefit of flexible application around products.
Companies with established return logistics can utilize our hard cooling elements for multiple delivery cycles, reducing waste and costs over time. For brands emphasizing sustainability, our eco-friendly gel packs combine effective cooling with improved environmental performance—making them ideal for modern e-commerce packaging needs.
Absorption solutions
For meat, fish and other moist products, our absorption pads create a more hygienic environment during transport. They prevent leakage that could damage e-commerce packaging or create customer concerns while maintaining product presentation throughout delivery. The technology enhances food safety by managing excess moisture and extends shelf life by creating optimal conditions within the package.
Designed for your business model
Our e-commerce packaging solutions are specially designed for direct-to-consumer shipping through standard package delivery services. Whether you're operating a meal kit delivery service, an online butcher or fishmonger, a specialty food retailer, a barbecue or gourmet food box company, or shipping cheese and dairy products, we provide the perfect combination of insulation and cooling to ensure your products arrive in ideal condition.
Eco-friendly options
Today’s online consumers increasingly demand sustainable e-commerce packaging alongside premium products. Our range includes numerous eco-friendly options that meet this market demand. Recyclable cardboard-based insulation provides effective temperature control with improved end-of-life options, while our paper-based cooling solutions minimize plastic use without compromising performance.
The biodegradable gel content in our eco gel packs addresses consumer concerns about chemical content, and our reusable insulation options support closed-loop business models for environmentally conscious brands.
Proven e-commerce performance
Our e-commerce packaging solutions have helped numerous online food retailers expand their businesses, particularly during the recent e-commerce boom. By providing reliable temperature control through standard delivery services, you can expand your delivery radius beyond what refrigerated vehicles would allow, reducing operational costs while increasing customer satisfaction and building trust in your brand.
