ACH Launches DuraTherm™ Brand Insulated Shipping Containers
Denver, CO — ACH Foam Technologies has launched DuraTherm™, an extremely durable shipping container for shipping perishable meats, pharmaceuticals and other products that require thermal protection. DuraTherm is a state-of-the-art shape molded expanded polystyrene (EPS) shipping container that absorbs shock, cushions, and insulates products better than other packaging alternatives such as corrugated or molded pulp.
“DuraTherm is the preferred shipping container for well-known companies that require specific temperature range control, ” said Erich Brandt, VP Sales for ACH Foam Technologies. “As ACH Foam Technologies continues to expand its leadership position in the protective packaging market, we expect DuraTherm to become one of our cornerstone products,” added Brandt.
ACH Foam Technologies also manufactures Custom Molded EPS, Fabricated EPS, and Loose Fill for the packaging market. Strict manufacturing specifications and quality control assures customers receive a consistently superior product. Proven design consistency, repeat product performance, easy customization and precision form and fit are reasons customers continue to count on ACH year-after-year.
ACH Foam Technologies has the most advanced custom-molding technology available, resulting in faster, more efficient production. State-of-the-art Hirsch technology allows ACH Foam to mold expanded polystyrene as well as other materials such as Arcel®, Gecet®, R-mer® and polyethylene.
Designers at ACH utilize 3-D software to determine the perfect configuration of the EPS packaging. Custom-molded EPS parts are designed specifically for an item and are manufactured with efficient lead times.

Environmental Packaging Benefits
EPS is
Resource Efficient - EPS manufacturing uses little energy and
creates little pollution. Steam is a component of the manufacturing
process. The water from this process is collected and re-used many
times. Only 0.1% of total oil consumption is used to manufacture EPS.
Made
with Recycled Material - Scrap EPS generated during
manufacturing is ground and incorporated into new EPS products. EPS is
easily recyclable and can be turned into new expanded polystyrene (EPS)
products or thermally processed into a resin to make other products such
as garden furniture, coat hangers and disposable cameras.
Reduces
Supply Chain Waste - EPS cushions and protects products better
than alternative packaging (corrugated, wood, etc.) from repeat impacts
during shipment which reduces waste caused by goods that are broken or
damaged in the supply chain saving energy, material and transportation
resources.
ACH EPS Reduces Fuel Consumption -
ACH has ten locations throughout the United States. The light weight of
EPS combined with shorter shipping distances reduces fuel consumption.
