Repulpable container

A modular box assembly comprising:

• a box formed of a paper blank, the box comprising multiple side box panels and a bottom box panel and defining an interior and a bottom;
• an insulation liner positioned within the box interior, the insulation liner constructed of a length of a batt assembly, the batt assembly comprising an insulation batt in facing contact with a first paper layer and with a second paper layer, the insulation liner defining multiple sections,
• wherein at least one section of the insulation liner contacts a side box panel of the multiple side box panels, and wherein another section of the multiple sections of the insulation liner contacts the bottom box panel;
• and
• wherein the insulation batt is formed of a mixture of paper fibers and thermoplastic binder fibers distributed substantially randomly within the paper fibers, the thermoplastic binder fibers making up about 0.5% to 25% by weight of the insulation batt, the insulation batt having a thickness that is greater than or equal to about 1/16 of an inch, the thermoplastic binder fibers being adhered to the paper fibers, and
• wherein subjecting the insulation batt to a repulpability test produces greater than 85% fiber yield, and
• wherein the thermoplastic binder fibers are comprised of a bi-component fiber, and
• wherein the repulpability test follows requirements set by Fibre Box Association of Elk Grove Village, Ill., and recited in Voluntary Standard For Repulping and Recycling Corrugated Fiberboard Treated to Improve Its Performance in the Presence of Water and Water Vapor as revised on Aug. 16, 2013.

• and
• wherein the insulation batt is formed of a mixture of cellulose fiber and between about 0.5% and about 25% thermoplastic binder fiber distributed substantially randomly within the cellulose fiber, said thermoplastic binder fiber being adhered to the cellulose fiber, wherein the thermoplastic binder fiber has a length of between about 0.5 mm to about 16 mm, and
• wherein subjecting the insulation liner to a repulpability test produces greater than 85% fiber yield, and
• wherein the density of the batt is less than 5 pounds per cubic foot, and
• wherein the repulpability test follows requirements set by Fibre Box Association of Elk Grove Village, Ill., and recited in Voluntary Standard For Repulping and Recycling Corrugated Fiberboard Treated to Improve Its Performance in the Presence of Water and Water Vapor as revised on Aug. 16, 2013.
