Industrial isothermal packaging is essential for the safe transport of products sensitive to temperature changes. In this field, the solutions developed by Embalex Group, such as Embatuff and Embaterm insulation, offer optimal levels of thermal protection, each with specialized characteristics for different applications.
Embatuff: Advanced Thermal Protection
Embatuff is an isothermal insulator specifically designed to minimise the impact of temperature variations on products transported in containers. Its insulation system protects against heat through two mechanisms: radiation and convection. Heat radiation, which occurs through the container walls, is effectively counteracted, preventing external heat from affecting the interior of the container. On the other hand, protection against convection prevents hot air circulating inside the container from affecting the transported products. This double thermal barrier keeps the internal temperature stable, preserving the integrity of the products.
The use of Embatuff is highly recommended for the transport of bulk products and sectors such as food, cosmetics, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals, where temperature preservation is critical. Embatuff is ideal for sensitive products such as powders, granules, polymers, resins, hot-fill products, wines, and spirits, among others.
Within the Embatuff range, there is also an economical version that maintains thermal efficiency but with a simplified design. The low-cost option is based on perimeter tape insulation, reinforced with four additional strips (two on each front of the container). This structure allows the cost of packaging to be considerably reduced without compromising the quality of the insulation, while maintaining optimum adaptability to the load. This economical option is a versatile solution for situations where budget is an important factor, without neglecting the need for effective protection against temperature variations.
Embaterm: Thermal blanket in rolls for standard containers
Another industrial isothermal packaging solution from Grupo Embalex is Embaterm insulation, designed in roll format for easy use in standard 20 and 40 foot containers. Unlike Embatuff, Embaterm is made up of a thermal blanket that acts as a barrier between the inside of the container and the external environment. Its main function is to maintain a constant temperature inside the container, minimising the effect of external temperature changes.
Embatuff stands out for its composition of specific materials: two external layers of heat-reflecting aluminium and a central layer of low-density polyethylene with a 31.5 mm diameter bubble. This multi-layer structure not only offers excellent thermal insulation, but also reinforces the mechanical integrity of the packaging, ensuring that the products transported are protected against sudden temperature variations that could damage their quality.
Applications and Benefits of Embatuff and Embaterm
Both isothermal insulators are designed to meet the needs of industries that demand high standards of thermal preservation. From pharmaceutical products that require controlled environments, to perishable foods and heat-sensitive chemicals, both Embatuff and Embaterm offer effective solutions.
For those who need a customized industrial isothermal packaging option, the Embalex Group range also includes other adaptable solutions, such as Embapanel, Embacover, and Air Embacover, which provide flexible alternatives to protect cargo in extreme conditions.
