Ferribox™
The FerriBox™ benefits from a unique lightweight construction combining the durability of a corrugated polypropylene outer skin with the thermal performance of an integral insulating core.
We offer a choice of materials for the insulating core (determined by the thermal performance you require); the colour of the corrugated polypropylene outer skin can be selected from a wide range and your corporate identity can be overprinted if desired.
The FerriBox™ is available for next day delivery nationwide in four standard sizes (as detailed in the table below) or can be custom made to order to meet your specific size / performance requirements, with the additional benefit of NO MINIMUM ORDER QUANTITY and NO TOOLING CHARGES.*
