1. Suitable temperature in flower transportation
The appropriate temperature in flower transport is usually 1℃ to 10℃ to maintain the freshness of flowers and extend their shelf life. Too high or too low temperature may lead to flower wither or frostbite, affecting their quality and ornamental properties.
2. How to wrap the flowers
Flower packaging is a key step in ensuring that it remains fresh and beautiful during transportation. Here are the specific packaging steps:
1. Choose the appropriate packaging materials
Wrap the flowers using food grade plastic film or kraft paper helps prevent moisture loss. For high-grade flowers, you can choose waterproof paper or gauze material.
2. Keep it moist
Wrap moist tissue or wet cotton at the bottom of the flower stem and then sealed in plastic bags to maintain flower moisture and freshness.
3. Add the support
Add supporting packaging, such as bubble film or foam plate, to the packaging material to prevent flower stems from being damaged or broken during transportation.
4. Use the cold packets
Place cold packets in the box to maintain a suitable low temperature environment and prevent flowers from withering due to high temperature. Cold packets should be separated from the flowers to avoid direct contact.
5. Packaging box
Place the flowers neatly in a solid carton or plastic box, which should contain enough fillings, such as foam or bubble film, to ensure that the flowers do not shake or press during transportation.
6. Seal the box
Finally, seal the package box. Strengthen the seal of the box with adhesive tape to ensure that it does not open during transportation. And in the external marked “fragile” and “keep refrigerated” and other words, to remind the logistics personnel to handle carefully.
With the above steps, you can ensure that the flowers remain fresh and intact during transportation, providing the best product experience.
3. Choice of transportation mode
Choosing the right mode of transportation is essential to ensure that the flowers remain fresh and beautiful during transportation. Here are several common and effective modes of transportation:
1. Cold-chain logistics
Cold-chain logistics is the best choice for transporting flowers. By refrigerated transportation, ensure that flowers remain cold throughout transportation and prevent withering and deterioration. Cold chain logistics companies are usually equipped with professional refrigeration equipment that can stabilize the temperature.
2. Airlift
Air transport is an efficient and fast option for long-haul or international transport. Choosing air transportation can deliver flowers to the destination in the shortest time, reducing the impact of transportation time on the freshness of flowers.
3. Special distribution vehicles
If cold chain logistics and air transport are not feasible, special transport vehicles equipped with cooling equipment can be selected. These vehicles can maintain a constant low temperature environment and ensure that the flowers are not affected by high temperatures during transportation.
4. Express delivery service
Choose a reputable express company, and choose their fast delivery service, to ensure that the flowers are delivered in the shortest possible time. Many express delivery companies offer alternate-day or next-day delivery service, suitable for short-distance transportation.
5. Route planning
No matter what kind of transportation mode is chosen, the transportation route should be planned in advance. Choose the quickest and good route to reduce the impact of transportation time and bumps on flowers.
Through these transportation methods, you can ensure that the flowers remain in the best condition during transportation, providing customers with a quality fresh and beautiful product experience.
4. Huizhou’s recommended scheme
In the transportation of flowers, choosing the right packaging and thermal insulation products is an important link to ensure the freshness of flowers. Huizhou Industrial offers a variety of products, the following are our existing products and their performance descriptions:
1. Existing products and performance description of Huizhou Island
1.1 Water injection ice packs: suitable for 0℃ to 10℃ to prevent flowers from deteriorating due to high temperature in conventional transportation. Light and easy to use, suitable for short-distance transportation.
1.2 Gel ice pack: suitable for the temperature range of-10℃ to 10℃, with stronger cooling effect and long-time insulation ability, suitable for long-distance transportation.
1.3. Dry ice pack: suitable for-78.5℃ to 0℃ environment, suitable for special items requiring ultra-cryogenic storage, but pay attention to safe operation.
1.4 Organic phase change materials: suitable for the temperature range of-20℃ to 20℃, the temperature can be customized according to the specific requirements to provide a stable temperature control effect.
1.5 EPP incubator: the temperature remains between-40℃ and 120℃, light weight, impact resistant, suitable for multiple use and environmental protection requirements.
1.6 PU incubator: the temperature is maintained between-20℃ and 60℃, excellent insulation performance, strong and durable, suitable for long-distance transportation and frequent use.
1.7 PS incubator: keep the temperature between-10℃ and 70℃, good insulation, economical, suitable for short-term or disposable use.
1.8 Aluminum foil insulation bag: suitable for 0℃ to 60℃, good insulation effect, light and portable, suitable for short distance transportation and daily carrying.
1.9 Non-woven thermal insulation bag: suitable for-10℃ to 70℃, economical, stable insulation effect, suitable for short time preservation and transportation.
1.10 Oxford cloth insulation bag: suitable for-20℃ to 80℃, strong insulation and waterproof performance, strong and durable, suitable for multiple use.
2. Recommended scheme
Based on the need of flower transportation, we recommend the use of gel ice bag with PS incubator.
Gel ice packs provide a stable cooling effect from 0℃ to 10℃, and have a long insulation time, which is suitable for the high temperature transportation requirements of flowers.
If your transportation path is far, you need to use an incubator, PS incubator has good insulation performance, and the cost is low, can provide a reliable temperature control environment in long-distance transportation, to ensure that flowers in the transportation process is not affected by high temperature or low temperature, maintain freshness and beauty.
5. Temperature monitoring service
If you want to obtain the temperature information of your product during transportation in real time, Huizhou will provide you with a professional temperature monitoring service, but this will bring the corresponding cost.
