Shipping container systems are provided for shipping a temperature sensitive product or payload. The systems include at least one heat transfer element and a payload container configured to hold payload therein and configured to be positioned within a shipping container; the payload container being spaced from sidewalls of the shipping container. Also included are spacers that may space the payload container from one or more of the heat transfer elements, or the spacers may space the heat transfer elements from an inside surface of the shipping container, or the spacers space multiple heat transfer elements from one another. The spacers are configured to allow air to flow over surfaces of the payload container and heat transfer elements. Also included are kits that include components of the system and methods of packing a shipping container with the system and/or kit components. Further provided are products that include any one or more of the described elements, such as the unique shuttle horizontal spacers provided herein; and fully assembled shipping containers.

A container (100) having: a housing member (10) having a bottom surface member (12) and a side surface member (14); and a protective member (20a) having a receiving surface in contact with an item to be housed. The bottom surface member defines the xy plane and the side surface member defines the xz plane and the yz plane that are orthogonal to the xy plane. The side surface member has a cut-out section (15a) that faces a housing space. The protective member has: an inside member (22a) comprising a receiving section (22R) having two receiving surfaces (23, 24) parallel to the xz plane and the yz plane; and an outside member (32a) arranged between the inside member and a side surface parallel to the yz plane of the side surface member, said outside member being fitted to the inside member so as to be slidable in a direction intersecting the bottom surface. The inside member and the outside member are arranged in the cut-out section so as to each be independently attachable and detachable. The inside member also comprises a support section (22S) formed in the y direction of the receiving section and having a support surface (22Sa) parallel to the xz plane. The support surface protrudes further in the x direction than the receiving surface parallel to the xz plane.

A glass article layer is provided that includes at least two cylindrical glass articles arranged side by side in an x-direction and extending in a z-direction. Spacers are arranged between the cylindrical glass articles. The spacers are provided at least at two spaced apart spacer positions in the z-direction longitudinally of the cylindrical glass article. The spacers are thread-like elements and at least one thread-like element is provided at each position.

A glass article layer is provided that includes at least two cylindrical glass articles extending in a z-direction and arranged side by side in an x-direction. Two spacers are provided spaced apart from one another at an interval longitudinally of the glass article in the z-direction. The spacers are arranged between the glass articles. The spacers are thread-like elements and at least one of the thread-like elements is provided at each spacer position.

A protectively enclosed panel of frangible thermal insulation having a panel of frangible thermal insulation with C-channel binding bars fitted over each edge of the panel and wear protective cover sheets covering the first and second major surface of the panel with the peripheral margin of the cover sheets adhered to the C-channel binding bars.

The present disclosure provides a packaging article (10). In an embodiment, the packaging article comprises (A) a rigid container (12) having side walls (14) and a bottom wall (16), the walls defining a compartment (20), and (B) a sheet (22) of 3-dimensional random loop material (3DRLM) in the compartment. A food item (C) may be located in the compartment, the food item contacts the sheet of 3DRLM.

A container for holding product therein during shipment and being returned for reuse has at least one track supported by each side of the container. The container has at least one lockable crossbar assembly extending between opposed tracks. Each lockable crossbar assembly has one or more locking assemblies to fix the position of the lockable crossbar assembly relative to the tracks.
