ISLANDIA, N.Y., April 21, 2022 - Minus Works announces the introduction of Plant-Based, Leak-Proof Gel Packs for shipping perishables. This new refrigerant gel formulation features a biodegradable, plant-based gel that is semi-solid and will not leak or flow if the containment film is broken or punctured.

This gel is a 0°C/32°F refrigerant, perfect for protecting perishables at frozen or refrigerated temperature ranges. Suitable applications include meal kits, online grocery, specialty food delivery, heat sensitive healthcare products, biopharma, and thermosetting chemicals.

"We see this product as a sustainable alternative to the Freezer Brick, which many shippers use as a leak-proof refrigerant that keeps its shape over freeze/thaw cycles. Freezer Bricks are made with open cell phenolic foam, which is a pollutant of priority concern. We believe offering an eco-friendly product of equal performance can help provide shippers with greener options," said Ben Shore, CEO of Minus Works.
