<p>A method for transport/distribution of products, especially sea food products, e.g. herring, shrimps, lobster, crabs, etc., which require supply of moisture for a period of time, and cooling without being in direct contact with the cooling medium, e.g. crushed ice. The paching means (1) used comprise a case/box (2) opening upwards and made of a liquid tight material, with a cover (3), and a double bottom (4, 3a) comprising an upper bottom member (4) with drainage apertures (5), and a lower liquid tight bottom member (3a), which between them define a space (2c) for receiving an absorbent (6), into which case/box (2) the product (8) is placed. Cooling medium (A), e.g. crushed ice, is placed on a tray shaped insert (7) having a perforated bottom (7a) with apertures (9) above the product (8), whereupon the case/box (2) is closed by the aid of cover (3). Water from melted ice wil trickle down through apertures (9) in the course of a desired period of time to moisten and cool product (8). The melted water and any liquids given off from product (8) will be drained down into space (2c) to be absorbed by absorbent (6).</p> |
