In unit-load logistics, the dead weight of a pallet-sized insulated box is a severely underestimated cost black hole:
More dead weight → less cargo per trip → more trips required → fuel, tolls, and labor costs skyrocket.
Traditional insulation materials are either too heavy, or light but poorly insulating (EPS foam has a thermal conductivity as high as 0.040 W/(m·K)).
SuperCooler Yunqing VIP vacuum insulation panels offer a new “weight reduction without performance loss” solution specifically for pallet-sized insulated boxes.

Conventional solutions fall short:
Insufficient insulation – EPS/PU are lightweight but have high thermal conductivity, leading to temperature failures during cold-chain transport.
Overly thick walls – To compensate for poor insulation, walls must be thickened, severely eating into internal volume.
High operating costs – Dead weight + inefficient insulation → higher fuel consumption, increased product loss, and poor ROI.
SuperCooler Yunqing VIP panels are engineered for lightweight pallet-box solutions.
Parameter | Yunqing VIP (SuperCooler) | Traditional VIP Core | Standard PU | EPS Foam |
Core Density | 42 ± 5 kg/m³ | 180 – 220 kg/m³ | 30 – 60 kg/m³ | 15 – 30 kg/m³ |
Thermal Conductivity | 0.0055 – 0.0065 W/(m·K) | 0.002 – 0.005 W/(m·K) | ~0.023 W/(m·K) | ~0.040 W/(m·K) |
Weight Comparison | Only 1/4 of traditional VIP | Baseline (1×) | ~0.2× | ~0.1× |
Insulation Performance vs. EPS | 6–7× better | Excellent | Mediocre | Poor |
75% lighter than traditional VIP cores (180–220 kg/m³), yet 6–7 times the insulating power of EPS foam – that’s genuine “weight reduction without compromise.”

Density of just 42 ± 5 kg/m³. For the same volume, this saves about 140 kg per cubic meter compared to traditional VIP cores (180–220 kg/m³).
A standard pallet box with 0.1 m³ of insulation layer sheds 14 kg of dead weight immediately.
Thermal conductivity of 0.0055 – 0.0065 W/(m·K) – 3 to 4 times more effective than standard PU (0.023 W/(m·K)). Long-haul cold-chain transport stays stable, with far lower spoilage rates.
With equal insulation performance, wall thickness can be reduced by 40% – 60%.
Internal usable volume increases by 15% – 25% – the same box carries significantly more product.
Vacuum performance remains stable over the long term. One investment, years of use – no frequent insulation replacement.
–80°C to +85°C – covers everything from deep-freeze to medium-high temperatures. Whether for frozen food, biopharma, or chemical raw materials, it performs reliably.
Minimum thickness down to 10 mm; supports non-standard sizes and complex shapes. Perfectly adaptable to various pallet-box designs.

Where does SuperCooler Yunqing VIP make the most impact?
Air-freight cold-chain pallets – Every gram saved counts. A SuperCooler Yunqing air-freight box cuts nearly 6 kg per unit – saving hundreds of dollars per flight.
Pharmaceutical/vaccine pallet boxes – Strict 2–8°C control plus lightweight construction, ideal for air and long-distance transport.
Fresh-food pallet boxes – Thinner walls, more internal volume – load 20% more strawberries, seafood, or steak per trip.
Cross-border returnable containers – Multi-modal (air/sea/land) transport benefits from both lightness and insulation, reducing total chain costs.
Military/specialty material containers – Wide temperature range (–85°C to +85°C) + high reliability + 5+ year service life.
