Biodegradable bag RecyCold cool pack

isothermalpaperpolyethylene (PE)

Keep it cooler RecyCold™ cool packs are designed for products that need cooling during unconditioned transport. They are available in various sizes and weights for different applications, and reflect Ranpak’s commitment to sustainability – using materials that have a low environmental impact both during production and after use. The patent-registered paper pouches have a polyethylene (PE) coating, and inside each pouch is a 100% biodegradable cooling gel – creating a product that is suitable for indirect food contact. The ink used for printing on the cool pack’s exterior is also suitable for indirect food contact. With a freezing point of approximately -2 degrees Celsius, RecyCold cool packs can be used to maintain temperatures between 2 to 8 degrees and -2 to -5 degrees Celsius. They’re suited for single-use commercial applications or re-use by consumers. At end of life, the gel can be disposed of in a sink or garden, or in a bio-container. The pouch can be recycled as paper in many countries. KEY FEATURES Sustainable product The drain-safe cooling gel can be discarded in a sink or garden, and the paper outer layer not only saves plastic but also matches paper recycling trends – it has been curbside recyclable in multiple markets since 2021. This makes the pack either re-usable or suitable for single-use. Hygienic & food safe RecyCold cool packs are produced with a food-safe plant-based gel and paper. Thanks to its biodegradable gel and paper, no harmful chemicals are used or microplastics released when pouring away contents.
