Why Thermal Bags Are More Important Than Ever
In today’s fast-paced world, maintaining the right temperature for food, groceries, and sensitive items is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. Whether you’re delivering takeout, heading out for a picnic, or transporting medical supplies, the thermal bag (also known as an insulated cooler bag) is the perfect solution for protecting contents from temperature fluctuations. At ADD Printing & Packaging, we offer a complete line of custom thermal bags to businesses who want to combine functionality, durability, and brand visibility.
What Are Thermal Bags?
Thermal bags are insulated carriers that maintain the inner temperature of their contents—hot or cold—for several hours. Constructed with insulation materials, like aluminum foil and foam padding, and durable outer covers, the bags create a thermal barrier that reduces heat transfer. They’re ideal for industries where freshness, food safety, or product integrity is critical.
