An Introduction to Gel Packs

In order to guarantee the quality of medicines from the moment they are manufactured to the moment they are put into use, it is crucial that they are transported and stored under the right conditions.

​If this is neglected, the effects of the medicines may be impaired. See our solutions below.

Brick Gel Packs are strong, durable cooling elements. Due to the wide range of dimensions in which the cooling blocks are available, there is a suitable size for every application.
Brick Gel Packs can be filled with various types of cooling gel, making them suitable for refrigerated transport from -21 to +20 degrees Celsius.
​They are often used in pharmacy, camping life, the food industry, retail and by web-shops. Because Brick Gel Packs are reusable, they are extremely suitable for deliveries with a return procedure.

For shipping products that are moisture and temperature sensitive, No sweat gel packs can be the ideal solution. This innovative gel pack is designed to minimize surface condensation. This makes them very suitable for use in both insulated boxes and cardboard boxes, because any moisture is captured by the gel pack and does not end up in the box.

A Foam Gel Pack consists of a block of foam, cooling gel and a strong, vacuum-packed casing. Due to the use of materials and the vacuum packaging, both the weight and shape of this type of cooling element is consistent under different conditions.
The Foam Gel Pack is frequently used in the medical sector in particular. This has to do with the fact that the elements are shape retaining under all temperature conditions, and therefore fit well in compact spaces.

The Sponge Gel Pack resembles the Foam Gel Pack in many ways. However, the Sponge Gel Pack is characterised by the fact that a sponge filling is used instead of a foam filling. This makes the Sponge Gel Pack more flexible when unfrozen. Moreover, the Sponge Gel Pack will always return to its original shape, while this is not the case with a Foam Gel Pack.
​Sponge Gel Packs can be filled with both standard cooling gel and Phase Change Material (PCM), allowing you to transport your goods at many different temperatures.

The Original Gel Pack can be used in many industries and is therefore a popular option.
Industries such as fish, seafood, pharmacy, medical and web shops can all benefit from this design.
​The Original Gel Pack is available in many standard sizes, ranging from 200 to 1,000 grams. The most popular standard sizes can be ordered with short lead times.

The eXtra Gel Pack distinguishes itself in a few ways from the Original gel pack. First of all, the shape is different.
​The eXtra gel pack has the shape of a sturdy container, which is sealed at the top on all four sides, allowing for the gel inside to settle at a more consistent level for better shape retaining.
In addition, the material used for the eXtra gel pack is twice as thick as the Original gel pack, making it more puncture resistant.
