Test Data – Dupont™ Tyvek® Air Cargo Covers Temperature-Sensitive Cargo Protection Complies with Time & Temperature Sensitive Cargo Regulations ™ ® TEST DATA – DUPONT TYVEK AIR CARGO COVERS DuPont™ Tyvek® Air Cargo Covers provide excellent Temperature comparison ‘all-in-one’ protection against temperature excursions Control (stretch wrap) When it comes to managing the risk of temperature excursions throughout the cold chain, protecting your products against ambient temperature extremes is important. However, solar ºC radiation may be the most critical–and under-appreciated–threat you face. That’s because 56.2 solar radiation is the leading cause of high-temperature spikes on the tarmac. We have conducted various trials for the Tyvek® Air Cargo Covers (including an environmental chamber test, sun exposure trial and real life scenario trial). Please contact AmSafe Bridport (details overleaf) to request the full Qualification Report and the Validation Reports. Are you focused on the right R? Reflectivity or R-value? Tyvek® Air Cargo Cover Tyvek® Air Cargo Covers offer multi-threat protection that helps reduce temperature excursions by providing: 22ºC Superior protection from solar radiation as a result of their unique reflective outer surface Excellent protection from ambient temperature extremes–hot and cold–without the weight or bulk of alternative covers Simply stated, Tyvek® Air Cargo Covers provide excellent ‘all-in-one’ protection against the threats of solar radiation Test conditions: covered pallets on simulated tarmac in Lakeland, FL, November 2012 at ~11 a.m. Full sun with and extreme ambient temperatures. ambient temperature at 20°C. Giving you peace of mind that your cargo will reach its destination safely amsafebridport.com/cargo Solar radiation technical study At low thermal mass (empty boxes in test case below), the temperature inside a pallet can far exceed ambient temperature3. Test conditions: Euro-sized, covered pallets on ground near Homestead, FL, 23 March 2013. Empty boxes. Full sun exposure with ambient high of 32°C/90°F. Solar wattage data when clouds obscured sun not shown to remove noise from graph. Tyvek® low emissivity cover shown. Solar energy measured at 26° north latitude per ASTM G7. 3A zero thermal mass experiment best isolates the relative temperature management effect of the cover. Benefits demonstrated Tyvek® Air Cargo Covers provide superior protection from solar radiation, a serious hazard faced during cold chain breaks on the tarmac. Tyvek® has superior reflectance in the UV and visible spectrum and nearly eliminates the effect of IR radiation through a combination of reflectance, absorbance and low emissivity. Lightweight thin Tyvek® Air Cargo Covers can provide better protection against temperature excursion than bulky covers and blankets.

  • Say NO to Plastic Bags Introduction
    Say NO to Plastic Bags Introduction Plastic bags are littering our streets and waterways, and clogging the processing machines at our transfer stations. Some communities have attempted to address the problem using one of three methods. Could any of these work in your community? Bag Bans ▪ Plastic bag bans are placed on a state, city, or town level and can be regulated by code enforcement officers who periodically visit vendors to ensure they are following the regulations. ▪ Violators will be penalized with a fine. Bag Bans ▪ Ban the distribution of plastic bags by chain retailers within a community. ▪ Cuts off supply of plastic bags at the source. ▪ Some bans are based on square footage of the business, i.e.. Retail establishments or food providers with greater than 10,000 square feet in specific store size must comply with the ban. ▪ Small businesses are harder to regulate but are usually brought under the regulation over time. Bag Bans ▪ Works very well in some areas ▪ In Portland Oregon, since 2013, the ban caused a reusable bag use increase of 304% while paper bag use jumped 491%. ▪ Some vendors have found loopholes to this method. ▪ Austin, Texas and Honolulu, Hawaii placed a ban that initially only included bags that were 4- millimeter thick or less. ▪ This caused retailers to start using thicker plastic bags, greater than 4mm that still ended up in the waste stream. ▪ Barrington, Rhode Island ran into the same loophole after enacting the ‘Reusable Check- out Bag Initiative’. ▪ Shaw’s and CVS seized the opportunity and introduced a so called reusable plastic bag that was thicker than the 2.25-millimeter limit.

It is thought that the inherent cling force is due to the presence of a relatively high level of n-hexane extractibles in the LLDPE resin. CM < CM hs CM rs oo CM Q.
