<p>INSULATED CONTAINER AND PROCESS FOR SHIPPING PERISHABLES : An insulated container and a process for shipping perishable products utilizes a box having a lid with an internal compartment for receiving a quantity of dry ice or other expendable refrigerant. The perishable products, which are prechilled, are packed into the box and are covered with a layer of wet ice and a wet pad. As the dry ice sublimates, it freezes the wet pad and refrigerates the box to maintain the products in chilled condition. Secondary refrigeration is provided by the frozen wet pad and layer of ice.</p> |
