Boxed Partners With TemperPack To Introduce Sustainable Packaging For Home Delivery Of Chocolates During Summer

NEW YORK, Sept. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Boxed Wholesale, an e-commerce company that sells bulk grocery items, has partnered with TemperPack Technologies to develop and test environmentally-friendly thermal packaging to keep its chocolates from melting while in transit to customers during the summer months.  

"Many of our competitors have to hold orders for chocolates and other desserts during the hottest months of the year due to melting. We know our customers really love these products, so we wanted to develop a method to ship them all year round without risking melting. We see this as another way to delight our customers, as well as a competitive advantage," commented Ludivine Ni, Senior Operations Manager at Boxed

The new packaging allows Boxed to serve its customers in the 1-day and 2-day delivery zones with chocolates and other desserts during summer, but without creating the unnecessary packaging waste often associated with delivering temperature-sensitive products.

"We really wanted to focus on sustainability and customer experience," commented Ni.

 "A lot of businesses are trying to sell temperature-sensitive products online right now, and many of them rush into it without putting enough thought into the thermal performance and sustainability of the packaging. Working with Boxed was refreshing. As they thought through shipping chocolates in the summer, they wanted to be sure that the packaging was thoroughly tested, that it was beautiful and on-brand, and that the materials were as sustainable as possible," commented James McGoff, co-CEO of TemperPack.
