Abstract
An insulated packaging assembly can include a box including a top side wall, a bottom side wall, a first lateral side wall, a second lateral side wall, a third lateral side wall, and a fourth lateral side wall the box defining a cavity; a first thermal liner positioned in the cavity, a first portion of the first thermal liner positioned in contact with the top side wall, a second portion of the first thermal liner positioned in contact with the first lateral side wall, a third portion of the first thermal liner positioned in contact with the bottom side wall; and a second thermal liner defining a first end and a second end disposed opposite from the first end, the second thermal liner defining an inner surface and an outer surface disposed opposite from the inner surface.
Claims19
An insulated packaging assembly comprising:
- a box comprising a top side wall, a bottom side wall, a first lateral side wall, a second lateral side wall, a third lateral side wall, and a fourth lateral side wall, the box defining a cavity;
- a first thermal liner positioned in the cavity, a first portion of the first thermal liner positioned in contact with the top side wall, a second portion of the first thermal liner positioned in contact with the first lateral side wall, a third portion of the first thermal liner positioned in contact with the bottom side wall;
- and
- a second thermal liner defining a first end and a second end disposed opposite from the first end, the second thermal liner defining an inner surface and an outer surface disposed opposite from the inner surface, the second thermal liner comprising a single piece of nonwoven insulation material extending unbroken from the first end to the second end, the outer surface facing and contacting the box, a first portion of the second thermal liner positioned in contact with the second lateral side wall, a second portion of the second thermal liner positioned in contact with the third lateral side wall, a third portion of the second thermal liner positioned in contact with the fourth lateral side wall.
A method of assembly an insulated packaging assembly, comprising the steps of:
- positioning a first thermal liner inside of a cavity defined by a box, the box comprising a first lateral side wall, a second lateral side wall, a third lateral side wall, a fourth lateral side wall, and a bottom side wall, the first thermal liner defining a first inner surface and a first outer surface each extending unbroken between first opposed ends, such that the first outer surface faces the first lateral side wall and the bottom side wall;
- and
- positioning a second thermal liner in the cavity, the second thermal liner defining a second inner surface and a second outer surface each extending unbroken between second opposed ends, such that the second outer surface faces the second lateral side wall, the third lateral side wall, and the fourth lateral side wall.
