R-values are used as a method of comparing the effectiveness of insulation, typically by the construction industry, but sometimes by in the field of thermal packaging. A high R-value is a sign of an effective insulating material. As you can see in the formula below, it simply shows that the less conductive a material, and the thicker it is, the higher the R-value will be.

The transport of temperature sensitive goods can present a complex challenge. From pharmaceuticals to perishable foods, maintaining temperature consistency is crucial to ensuring a first-rate product is delivered. This challenge is amplified in international logistics when the goods may be subject to a spectrum of climatic conditions as they move around the globe. Dynachill foil thermal covers are designed to protect sensitive goods against the unpredictable external conditions they encounter on their journey.
