Why seafood requires specialized packaging

Fresh seafood is highly perishable and requires consistent cold temperatures to maintain quality. Whether you're shipping locally caught fish to international restaurants or exporting premium caviar that needs to stay below 2°C, our seafood packaging solutions ensure your products arrive in optimal condition.

Our seafood clients include aquaculture businesses that harvest fish overnight, pack in the morning, and ship worldwide. We also serve processing facilities that prepare salmon and other fish for global distribution, as well as premium seafood exporters shipping delicate products like caviar.

Our specialized seafood solutions

Ice Pack XL - our signature product

Our revolutionary Ice Pack XL was first introduced to the seafood industry and remains our flagship seafood packaging product. These flexible cooling mats provide significant advantages over traditional ice, offering weight reduction that is critical for air freight savings and eliminating excess water in packaging. Their flexible design conforms around fish for complete cooling coverage, while allowing rapid activation on-site with products ready within 30 minutes.

The design allows for complete coverage of fish up to 80cm in length, providing continuous cooling with a soft material that's gentler on products than hard cooling elements. This approach delivers superior cooling duration compared to standard gel packs, ensuring your seafood maintains ideal temperatures throughout shipping.

absorbents for seafood

Absorption mats for seafood

Our specialized blue laminated fish absorption pads are designed to absorb excess moisture from melting ice or the product itself. These fully sealed pads prevent leakage during transport while keeping products dry and presentable. The innovative design converts absorbed water into a cooling gel for extended temperature control, making them an essential component of our advanced seafood packaging systems. Each pad has the capacity to absorb up to 4–5 liters of liquid.

This dual functionality not only keeps your products dry but extends the cooling effect, enhancing the overall performance of your temperature-controlled seafood packaging.

Insulated packaging

We offer several seafood packaging options to meet different needs and sustainability goals. Traditional EPS boxes provide proven performance, while our eco-friendly alternatives like the EcoCoolbox offer similar protection with improved environmental credentials. For returnable systems, our polypropylene channel plate boxes provide durability across multiple shipments.

We're also developing innovative cardboard fish shipping boxes to meet upcoming regulations phasing out single-use plastics. For bulk shipments, our insulated pallet covers provide an additional layer of temperature protection, making them ideal for larger seafood packaging operations.

Proven performance for demanding scenarios

Our seafood packaging solutions have been tested in the most demanding conditions. Clients shipping premium caviar report successful temperature maintenance for 3–4 days, even with transit delays. For extreme destinations, our complete seafood packaging systems can maintain proper temperatures for up to 5 days.
