insulated box (S) 250 x 250 x 250 mm - 100% recyclable cardboard

insulated box (S) — 250 × 250 × 250 mm, 100% recyclable corrugated cardboard. The compact outer box of the TempGuard cooling system. Combine it with separate TempGuard insulation sheets (S) to create a fully functional, fully recyclable cooling box — a plastic-free alternative to EPS and polystyrene foam.

Please note: this is the box, not the insulation

The insulated box (S) is the corrugated cardboard outer box. The insulating performance comes from the TempGuard insulation sheets (S), which you order separately and place inside the box. Together they form a cooling box; on its own, the box can be used as a standard shipping box. If you prefer a box that insulates immediately without separate sheets, take a look at the Eco Coolbox or the honeycomb insulated box.

Why choose a cardboard insulated box with separate sheets?

This system is designed for companies that want to save storage space and package sustainably. The box is delivered flat, and the sheets are kept flat in stock — you only add the insulation when packing. This saves a significant amount of storage space and transport volume compared with pre-formed EPS boxes. After use, both the box and the sheets can simply be disposed of with waste paper, without a separate collection point. The insulation value of the combination is comparable to EPS (polystyrene foam/Styrofoam).

How to assemble a complete cooling box

1. Set up the box and place two TempGuard insulation sheets (S) inside, so the base and walls are lined.
2. Place your product inside and add a gel pack — gel packs on top of the product, because cold air sinks.
3. Fold the sheets closed and seal the box. Pack as tightly as possible: less empty space means a more stable temperature.

What is the S size suitable for?

The compact format is suitable for smaller chilled parcels: a few pieces of fresh fish or meat, dairy products, chocolate, or a refrigerated pharmaceutical shipment. With the right gel packs, you can cover 24 to 48 hours in transit, from chilled (2–8 °C) to frozen — without a refrigerated vehicle.
