North America Insulated Packaging Market Definition

Insulation material is defined as a material or combination of different materials with low thermal conductivity to resist the heat flow. Thermal abuse is the major concern faced during the transportation of temperature-sensitive products hence may company depend heavily on insulated materials for packaging. The insulated packaging restricts heat transfer by constraining conduction convection and radiation. Insulated packaging is used for transporting thermal sensitive products such as food, organs, cosmetics, blood, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals among others. Insulated packaging is regarded as the optimum solution for maintaining products frozen, refrigerated, and warm, and for reducing the effects of inconstant temperature. The insulated packaging materials are bifurcated into plastic, metal, and glass. The packaging is done in various forms such as pouches, wraps, and boxes & containers.

Thermal conductivity plays a vital role in selecting the insulation material. The lower the thermal conductivity is proportional to better the heat resistance, thereby developing in better insulation. The materials used for packaging including polyurethane foam, expanded silica, insulating cement, mineral fiber. The most widely used forms of insulated packaging include pre-formed shapes, box, bags, flexible blankets, and flexible sheets. The insulated packaging is predominately used in cosmetics, and food and beverages. Moreover, they also find extensive applications in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and automotive.
