The End of Styrofoam

Sustainable Packaging at it's coolest!

The world seems to have been stuck on Sytrofoam for years now but we've been doing some research and lots of testing to find a more sustainable way. We've developed our own sustainable packaging system that's plastic and foil free and performs better than styrofoam.

The refrigerated items you'll receive will now come in a box, inside another box. The value of this is the airlock that's created by the multi layers of cardboard. Just as styrofoam is effective because of the air trapped inside the foam, the air trapped inside the walls of the cardboard performs the same action. A box snugly fitted inside another box delivers 3 airlocks making it just as effective as a small styrofoam box.

The cardboard isn't just any cardboard either. We're using the highest grade moisture resistant board to ensure the airlock remains as consistent as possible during its journey to you. We still include a frozen water bottle with each cold box, definitely not the gel packs that are often used. Just like the gel packs a frozen water bottle is entirely reusable so please send them back with your next order. Unlike the gel packs the bottle itself can be easily recycled and best of all they only contain natural water which if it's a hot day you are more than welcome to drink as we only use new waters for this purpose. We never refill opened bottles.

Of course the box is refrigerated all the way from our door to your door so when it arrives on your doorstep it's already nice and cold. This system should, as our testing has proven, keep your products cool as good as any of the other more environmentally unfriendly solutions out there.

Optional Wool Pack

Our testing has proven that the current system is good for products for 3 hours at room temperature after it leaves refrigeration. We have added in an option at checkout where you may elect to add a Wool Pack for a nominal fee if you feel that you will be home late.  This will keep your products cooler for longer.

No More Deposits for Colds

We are no longer collecting a deposit for each cold box. But, of course any previous deposits will be honoured when you send back the styrofoam from previous orders. We will sell these back into the 2nd hand styrofoam market to be used again by someone else.
