Abstract: A cartridge assembly for transporting temperature-sensitive materials includes an inner half-slotted container for housing the temperature-sensitive materials and an outer half-slotted container containing the inner half-slotted container. Each of the inner half-slotted container and the outer half-slotted container includes an open, flapless proximal end and a sealable distal end. A flange couples the inner half-slotted container to the outer half-slotted container.

Abstract: A device for encapsulating a loose fill material includes a bottom portion defining an open top and a pair of open ends. A top portion is coupled to the bottom portion to provide a plenum space therebetween for encapsulating the loose fill material. The top portion includes a pair of enclosure ears that are adapted to close each of the open ends defined by the bottom portion.

Abstract: A recyclable, thermally insulated shipping container is entirely constructed from organic fiber materials in such a manner that the container is curbside recyclable without separation of component materials. The container includes a corrugated cardboard outer box having a bottom wall, a plurality of sidewalls and a top wall, a corrugated cardboard inner liner assembly comprising a corrugated cardboard inner box having a bottom wall and a plurality of sidewalls, and a corrugated cardboard lid assembly. The outer box, inner liner assembly and lid assembly cooperate to create a plurality of thermally insulated cavities which are sequentially filled and uniformly packed with pre-portioned, predetermined volumes of loose-fill cellulose (organic fiber) insulation to create a consistent insulating value throughout the container.
