Packaging Information

The food industry has always been concerned with the problem of temperature control when food is outside the chiller cabinet. Pottle Meats will deliver all products using the state-of-the-art Sorba Freeze packaging.

Sorba-Freeze Refrigerant Pads are made from a non-woven polyester fabric and silver laminate. Inside each ‘cell’ is an acrylate polymer powder which is capable of absorbing liquid up to 150 times its own weight. Sorba-freeze continues to control temperature even above 2ºC and it is extremely easy and safe to handle.

When soaked in fresh water Sorba-Freeze refrigerant pads can be frozen as gel a pack. However, Sorba-Freeze is known to be twice as effective as a gel in retaining a low temperature for long periods of time.

As health and safety regulations become stricter, demand for Sorba-Freeze has increased. The long cooling and absorbent properties offer a reliable and economical alternative to gel and ice.
