Shipping live animals or delicate tropical plants comes with one big challenge: temperature control. Especially in colder months or longer transit times, a drop in temperature can damage or even kill tropical fish, reptiles, or exotic plants. That’s why many e-commerce businesses rely on heatpacks to maintain a safe climate inside the box.
Shipping live animals or delicate tropical plants comes with one big challenge: temperature control. Especially in colder months or longer transit times, a drop in temperature can damage or even kill tropical fish, reptiles, or exotic plants. That’s why many e-commerce businesses rely on heatpacks to maintain a safe climate inside the box.
At Inter Fresh Concepts, we offer heatpacks with durations of 40, 72 and 110 hours—giving your shipment a consistent source of warmth for up to nearly five days.
Air-activated: starts heating when exposed to oxygen
Delivers heat between 40°C and 50°C
Available in 40, 72 or 110-hour versions
Safe for live animals and plants
No electricity or external activation needed
Our heatpacks are used by B2C e-commerce companies throughout Europe to ship:
Reptiles (e.g. geckos, snakes, turtles)
Tropical fish & corals
(Exotic and tropical) plants
Whether you’re a webshop, breeder or specialty retailer, heatpacks offer a reliable, low-maintenance way to protect your goods during transit.
To maintain the right temperature range, heatpacks are often used in combination with EPS boxes or Recycold Climaliners. These materials provide essential insulation, helping retain warmth and prevent temperature spikes.
Important: Heatpacks require a small amount of airflow to stay active. Fully airtight packaging may stop the reaction. That’s why we recommend using Climaliners, which offer insulation while still allowing enough oxygen inside the box.
While our heatpacks offer the same reliable performance as other brands, we stand out on service and delivery:
Fast availability and delivery within Europe
Competitive pricing
Easy to order in combination with other packaging materials like Climaliners or EPS boxes
Whether you ship within your country or across borders, as long as delivery occurs within the heatpack’s duration window, your shipment stays protected.
Whether you're shipping reptiles, fish or tropical plants, our 40–110 hour heatpacks help ensure they arrive safely—no matter the weather.
We are happy to help. Feel free to reach out.
