Nelson-Jameson has announced a partnership with Bonar Plastics to create and utilize new, reusable shipping containers when delivering dsm-firmenich cultures, which are biological catalysts for dairy food production.
The new containers will minimize waste while increasing efficiency by using less cardboard, styrene, and dry ice, ensuring that ensure customers effectively receive their culture orders while mitigating the environmental impact of single-use packaging.
Constructed with a specialized compound melt blend of plastic, the containers are designed to withstand cold impact, enhancing durability and reusability. Fabricated from food-grade linear low-density polyethylene featuring 1–1/2 inch thickness and double-walled foam-filled construction for insulation, the containers provide optimal storage for dry ice blocks. The containers are also equipped with lockable lids incorporating silicone gaskets to minimize sublimation.
After the containers’ bunkers containing the frozen starter cultures are unpacked, they are then collected, cleaned, and reused for another culture delivery or shipment.
