Abstract
A shipping container has an inner insulative sleeve having an outer, longitudinally extending, polymer film with lateral edges folded on itself to form a pocket having an opening and sealable by a flap. An assembly has an inner, longitudinally extending, biodegradable film having lateral edges and a longitudinal extending pad composed of textile cuttings and microbial and super-absorbent powders. The inner film extends longitudinally around the pad and is attached to the pad.
Claims18
An insulative packing construction comprising:
- a shipping container having inner surfaces defining an internal shipping container cavity;
- a plurality of interlinked polymer film envelopes disposed within the internal shipping container cavity and in contact with at least one of the inner surfaces, each of the plurality of polymer film envelopes defining an interior insulation cavity having an interior surface;
- and
- a plurality of textile pads comprising chopped fibers selected from the group consisting of polyester, nylon, acrylic, cotton, polypropylene, denim and combinations thereof, each of said textile pads being disposed within the interior insulation cavity of one of the plurality of polymer film, wherein the textile pad has a compression resistance at a compression of 25% of the original thickness of greater than about 20 psi and the textile pad has a compression resistance at 50% of the original thickness of greater than about 180 psi.
