Owned Technology / Applied Products
(1) Owned Technology
-
Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIP):
-
High-performance insulation with thermal conductivity below 0.002 W/m·K — 10× more efficient than polyurethane or polystyrene.
-
Uses non-metallic ceramic-based barrier films, reducing thermal edge effects and enhancing durability by 2–5× compared to aluminum films.
-
Core materials include glass wool or eco r-PET fibers, ensuring excellent fire resistance and long-term performance.
-
-
Eco-Friendly Recycled PET Insulation:
-
Made from recycled PET bottles; certified eco-friendly by Korea’s Ministry of Environment.
-
Provides higher cooling performance than Styrofoam (maintains temperature below 15°C for 12.4 hours, vs. 8.9 hours for EPS).
-
(2) Applied Products
-
Va℃-Pack (Bio/Pharmaceutical):
-
Multi-temperature insulation boxes (-80°C to 8°C) with built-in data loggers and up to 150 hours of temperature retention.
-
-
Cool Ever Box (Food Distribution):
-
Washable hardcase cooler with recyclable PET and optional VIP integration, maintaining cold for 18–24 hours.
-
-
Eco-Friendly Delivery Bags:
-
Recycled PET and fabric “regen”-based thermal bags designed for retail, e-commerce, and department store logistics.
-
