If you’re in the frozen food business, knowing how to properly ship your products is crucial. It directly affects product quality, customer satisfaction, and long-term business success.
Improper handling can lead to thawed goods, lost consumer trust, and major financial losses. In this article, we’ll break down five proven methods for safely and quickly shipping frozen food.
🚚 Why Frozen Food Shipping Quality Matters
Shipping quality can make or break a customer’s decision to buy again.
A study titled “The Impact of Service Quality and Customer Trust on Purchase Decisions: Paxel Surabaya Case Study” found that proper cold-chain delivery significantly impacts consumer satisfaction.
Paxel, a delivery service with same-day shipping and cold-chain logistics, was able to safely ship frozen products in and out of Surabaya. They maintained product temperature throughout delivery with specialized cooling facilities—earning high trust from local businesses and customers.
This proves one thing: great frozen food shipping equals happy, loyal customers.
✅ How to Ship Frozen Food Safely and Efficiently
1. Use the Right Packaging
Before shipping, your frozen food should be properly sealed and insulated. One smart solution? Use a Partition Box from ALVAboard. It helps separate individual items within a larger insulated box to prevent shifting and temperature loss.
These boxes are ideal for use with coolers or styrofoam containers.
2. Prep Your Frozen Food Packing Tools
Make sure you have all essential tools before shipping:
- ALVAboard Outer Box: A rigid external container that fits inside the cooler. Recommended thickness: 3–5mm for optimal insulation and durability.
- Thermal Liner: Keeps the internal temperature cooler for longer.
- Ice Gel Packs: Non-toxic, reusable, and food-safe cooling agents.
- Vacuum-Sealed Plastic Bags: Helps preserve freshness and reduces wasted space.
3. Wrap with Bubble Wrap & Aluminum Foil
Once packed, wrap your frozen items with bubble wrap and place ice gel packs on both the top and bottom of the contents. Then, add an aluminum foil layer for better thermal insulation and temperature stability throughout the trip.
Make sure everything is tightly sealed.
4. Load into a PP ALVAboard Box
Now place the wrapped product into a PP ALVAboard box, ensuring no empty space remains.
Why PP ALVAboard?
- Water-resistant and ideal for wet, cold, or humid environments
- Hollow-core plastic that’s lightweight yet strong
- Prevents structural damage while keeping items secure during transit
5. Choose a Cold Chain Shipping Partner
Frozen food shipping demands cold chain logistics—a delivery service with refrigerated vehicles that maintain a stable temperature from warehouse to customer.
Look for:
- Providers with experience shipping frozen goods
- A proven track record with testimonials or case studies
- A commitment to keeping your product below freezing at every touchpoint
