More Information About 3D Model :
The insulated container, formally known as a passive thermal management unit, Insulated Shipping Container (ISC), or Cold Box, is a specialized logistics apparatus designed for the temporary storage and transport of temperature-sensitive commodities, particularly deep-frozen perishables such as ice cream. This specific iteration is defined by its blue pigmentation and construction from polymer materials, signifying its dedicated role within the frozen food supply chain.

Construction and Materials


The unit is typically manufactured through injection or rotational molding processes, utilizing high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or durable polypropylene (PP). These polymers are selected for their excellent impact resistance, chemical inertness, non-toxicity, and operational integrity within low-temperature environments, where standard plastics often become brittle.

The design features a double-wall configuration. The void between the inner and outer shells is densely packed with a high-efficiency insulating material, most commonly rigid closed-cell polyurethane (PUR) foam. This structure minimizes heat transfer via conduction, convection, and radiation, providing exceptional thermal resistance (high R-value) necessary to maintain deep-freeze temperatures (typically below -18°C or 0°F) for extended durations without requiring active refrigeration mechanisms. The blue color often serves as a functional color-coding mechanism within large logistics networks, designating the crate's application for frozen goods, thereby preventing cross-contamination or misuse with chilled or ambient commodities.

Design and Operational Characteristics


The Cold Box is engineered for efficiency within commercial logistics environments. Key design features include:

  1. Form Factor: Rectangular or square configurations optimized for maximum volumetric efficiency when stacked and palletized (often standardized to fit Euro or ISO pallet dimensions).
  2. Stackability: Integrated interlocking feet or runners ensure stability when multiple units are vertically stacked, maximizing storage density both in transit and in cold storage facilities.
  3. Lid Mechanism: Features a tight-fitting, often gasketing, lid (removable or hinged) designed to minimize thermal bridging and prevent air exchange, which is critical for cold retention.
  4. Durability and Sanitation: The seamless, non-porous plastic interior facilitates rigorous cleaning and sanitation procedures, ensuring compliance with food safety regulations, such as those governed by HACCP standards.

    Operational performance hinges on the container’s thermal envelope and the type of phase change material (PCM) or cryogen utilized internally (e.g., dry ice or eutectic plates). The inherent insulation capability ensures a critical temperature holdover time, allowing for the transport of frozen confectionery through non-refrigerated vehicles during short-haul or last-mile delivery stages.

    ### Application

    The primary application is the preservation and distribution of ice cream and other frozen desserts, which require stringent temperature control to maintain texture, quality, and microbial safety. These crates bridge the gap between centralized deep-freeze warehouses and retail or consumer points of sale, particularly where access to static freezer units is limited or intermittent. Furthermore, similar cold box containers are employed in pharmaceutical and biomedical logistics for transporting temperature-sensitive vaccines or specimens, leveraging the standardized, verifiable thermal performance of the unit. The specific designation as an icebox or cold box denotes its capacity to function as a highly efficient, passive cooler for ultra-low temperature requirements.
