There is provided improved utilisation of the cooling capacity in dry ice. An apparatus comprises at least one sealed container for dry ice enclosed within another sealed container, wherein the at least one sealed container for dry ice is operatively connected to a storage container for cooling the storage container to a target temperature or to a target temperature range by sublimed dry ice from the at least one sealed container for dry ice, and the at least one sealed container for dry ice is operatively connected to said another sealed container for conducting sublimed dry ice from the at least one sealed container for dry ice to said another sealed container, when the target temperature of the storage container is met.

A reusable, substantially airtight, and insulated container system, assembly and method include detachable assembled top, side, and bottom panels to enclose a plurality of pallets of chilled, perishable products for transport. The top panel includes a plurality of pouches positioned within horizontal chambers within the inside top panel surface. Hook and loop closures secure and seal the panel assemblies. Thermoplastic polyurethane nylon fabric panel inner and outer surfaces are bonded to an internal insulation layer with thermal-welded edges. The system, assembly, and method include internal temperature control elements for a real time thermostatically controlled container environment protecting chilled products housed within the cover assembly during transport. An embodiment of the cover assembly is configured to a standard LD-7 air transport container base pallet, providing a thermostatically controlled container environment of approximately 745 cubic feet. The assembled top, side, and bottom panels are collapsible for easy storage and transport when not in use.

A handle top includes a top panel defining a first side edge and a second side edge disposed opposite from the first side edge; a side panel, an inner edge of the side panel hingedly attached to the top panel at the first side edge; and a handle loop comprising a handle portion and a base portion, the base portion secured to the side panel.

A modular box assembly includes a box, the box defining a top end and a bottom end disposed opposite from the top end, the box including a plurality of side panels extending between the top end and the bottom end, the plurality of side panels at least partially defining a box cavity within the box; and an inner box positioned within the box cavity, the inner box dividing the box cavity into a first sub-compartment and a second sub-compartment, the inner box including a channel tab extending outward from a side panel of the inner box, the channel tab engaging a first side panel of the plurality of side panels of the box.

A modular box assembly includes a box, a box cavity defined within the box, the box defining a top end and a bottom end, the top end defining a box opening to the box cavity, the box includes a side panel extending from the top end to the bottom end; a shoulder attached to the side panel, the shoulder extending inward from the side panel and into the box cavity, the shoulder comprising a first sub-shoulder and a second sub-shoulder, the first sub-shoulder, the second sub-shoulder, and the side panel defining a shoulder channel; and a support bracket comprising a channel tab and a support shelf, the channel tab positioned within the shoulder channel, the channel tab frictionally engaging the first sub-shoulder and the second sub-shoulder to secure the support bracket within the shoulder channel, the support shelf extending into the box cavity.

A modular box assembly includes a box defining a box cavity within the box, the box further defining a top end and a bottom end, the top end defining a box opening connected to the box cavity, the box including a side panel extending from the top end to the bottom end; a shoulder attached to the side panel, the shoulder extending inward from the side panel and into the box cavity, the shoulder including a first sub-shoulder and a second sub-shoulder, the first sub-shoulder, the second sub-shoulder, and the side panel defining a shoulder channel; and an inner box disposed in the box cavity, the inner box including a channel tab, the channel tab frictionally engaging the shoulder channel to secure and suspend the inner box within the box cavity between the top end and the bottom end.
