There have been multiple CO2 shortages over the past few years, leading to panic for businesses fearing losses in trade if they are unable to supply staple products such as bacon, beer, and even crumpets! Why such a panic? \u2013 because if the CO2 gas used in the production of these items, to extend shelf life or putting the fizz into drinks, is running low then without it, these products \u2013 and many more \u2013 cannot be made correctly or packaged for optimum lifespan. Dry ice, for example, has been one such casualty of the shortage, limiting retailers\u2019 ability to effectively keep frozen food at the correct temperature for both home delivery and in store. This in turn has had a knock-on effect on customers and sales, highlighting just how important both CO2 and dry ice is to the retail market.<\/p>\n

The current crisis will of course eventually ease but for how long? Here at Hydropac we\u2019re keen to safeguard against any similar situations in the future, and that\u2019s where our range of safe alternative to dry ice ice packs come in.<\/p>\n
