Do you know how to choose an insulated food pan carrier?
Research has shown that the takeout delivery industry is often crude, with a wide variety of tools used. Some use metal cabinets welded together, others wrap white foam boxes with yellow tape, or use wicker baskets filled with cotton blankets. These devices are not only bulky and inconvenient to carry, but also unhygienic and unsightly.
The advent of thermal boxes is a major innovation in the takeout catering industry. Originating in France, thermal boxes initially referred to simply as "boxes with thermal insulation properties." They were categorized by material, including plastic, foam, metal, and wood. Due to their portability and novel design, thermal boxes quickly became popular nationwide, especially in Beijing, becoming a must-have item in the catering industry within a few short years.
The current domestic thermal box market is highly mixed, with some vendors selling inferior products, using non-environmentally friendly materials, and producing boxes with unpleasant odors, severe deformation, and serious food safety risks. Here's a breakdown of the advantages and disadvantages of thermal boxes based on their material:
1. Foam: Using them to store food can seriously affect our health. When temperatures reach 65°C, harmful substances in disposable foam plastic will seep into food, causing damage to the liver, kidneys, and central nervous system. Foam boxes are typically made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and are generally used for low-temperature refrigerated transportation.
⒉ Waterproof Fabric: Insulated boxes made of Oxford cloth or nylon offer numerous advantages, including strength and wear resistance. They also feature waterproof rubber soles for a non-slip feel. Independent insulated food compartments with a pressure-resistant system protect food from compression. The interior of the food compartment is lined with aluminum foil and insulated with PE cotton, providing both heat and cold insulation. They are environmentally friendly and safe, suitable for direct food contact.
⒊ Plastics: Plastics are used in all aspects of daily life. Plastic items such as bags, cups, and bottles are ubiquitous. However, some commercially available plastic products may release toxic and harmful substances (even carcinogens) under varying temperature and humidity conditions, making them unsafe.
⒋ Metal: Metal boxes are multifunctional equipment for unitizing cargo, storing goods, and distributing goods. Its disadvantages are that it's too heavy, non-detachable, and has sharp corners that can easily scratch skin.
5. Wood: Its disadvantage is poor thermal insulation. Its advantages are low cost, but it's also bulky, inconvenient to carry and deliver, non-detachable, and prone to scratching skin with sharp corners.
To address the above disadvantages of insulated boxes, Shanghai Xuanbin Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. offers a series of safer and more reliable insulated boxes.
Our insulated box series features the following:
Its heat and cold resistance requirements are high, and it won't deform in hot water.
Top-loading food tray insulated boxes can be used to store, transport, and serve standard food trays for both hot and cold foods.
Tough and durable, its seamless polyethylene or polypropylene construction features heavy foam insulation.
Molded handles on all four sides make the boxes easy to carry and transport.
Dividing bars can accommodate multiple small food trays.
Interlocking and stackable for easy transport and storage.
Excellent sealing is essential for keeping stored food fresh for a long time. It offers superior impact resistance, resisting shattering and scratching even under heavy pressure or impact.
Environmentally friendly materials: non-toxic, odorless, UV-resistant, and durable.
High-quality insulated containers have a moisture permeability 200 times lower than comparable products, keeping food fresh longer.
Food insulated containers will play a crucial role in the future of the food service industry. Since insulated containers are closely linked to food, choosing the right one is crucial. These insulated containers meet customer needs and are a safe and reliable choice for everyone.
