<p>A steel-bodied shipping container (10) having two lockable doors (24, 26), and at one of its ends has an insulation pad (32) positioned on its floor. A heat exchanger pad (40) having a hot water/steam hose (46) embodied therein is positioned on top of the insulation pad, with the inlet/outlet ends (48, 50) of the hose positioned near a first of the end doors. A flexible bladder (30) positioned on top of the heat exchanger pad, is pumped full of a material. The first door is locked and the shipping container shipped. At destination, hot water or steam is pumped through the heat exchanger pad to raise the temperature of the material within the flexible bladder, after which the material is pumped out of the flexible bladder.</p> |
