Thermopore boxes — moulded expanded polystyrene (EPS) boxes — are the standard insulated packaging in Pakistan for fish, seafood, pharmaceuticals, vaccines, dairy, frozen foods, and temperature-sensitive shipments. For the best thermopore boxes in Pakistan, Thermo Master — a top EPS packaging manufacturer — produces EPS thermopore boxes at our factory on Katar Band Road, near Thokar Niaz Baig, Lahore, supplying fish exporters, pharma distributors, food businesses and courier-dependent sellers across Pakistan since 2017.
A well-made EPS box holds ice for 24–72 hours depending on wall thickness and ambient temperature. Standard sizes are ready off the shelf; custom moulds are made for volume buyers.
What EPS Thermopore Boxes Are and How They Work
Unlike cut-sheet boxes, true thermopore boxes are steam-moulded: EPS beads are fused inside an aluminium mould into a seamless box with lid. Moulding gives uniform wall thickness, tight-fitting lids, and far better strength and insulation than boxes glued together from flat sheets.
The box works as a portable cold room. Its thick EPS walls (typically 25–50 mm) slow heat entry dramatically, and with gel packs or ice inside, the contents stay in the safe temperature zone for a day or more. Drainage plugs can be fitted for fish boxes; tight lids and optional strapping grooves suit courier handling.

All boxes are supplied with matching lids. Optional extras: drainage hole with plug (fish boxes), printed labelling or branding, and reinforced corners for stacked transport.
Moulded Boxes vs Sheet-Glued Boxes
| Feature | Moulded EPS Box | Sheet-Glued Box |
|---|---|---|
| Insulation | Excellent — seamless walls | Good — joints leak some cold |
| Strength | High, survives courier handling | Moderate, corners can split |
| Water resistance | Very good | Glue joints can soften |
| Cost | Higher per unit | Cheaper per unit |
| Best for | Pharma, export, repeat use | One-way cheap shipments |
For anything where temperature failure means lost product — medicines, export seafood, frozen food — moulded boxes are worth the premium. For one-way low-value shipments, sheet-glued boxes keep cost down.
Applications in Pakistan

- Pharmaceutical cold chain — vaccines, insulin, biologics, diagnostic samples
- Dairy and frozen food — ice cream, frozen meat, desi ghee shipments
- E-commerce — temperature-sensitive products shipped via courier nationwide
- Catering and events — keeping food hot or cold for outdoor functions
- Agriculture — mango, kinnow and cherry shipments needing protection
- Ice retail — ice blocks and crushed ice delivery
EPS Boxes by Industry: Pharma, Fish & Meat
Pharma EPS Boxes in Pakistan
Pharma EPS boxes in Pakistan must protect a strict cold chain — vaccines, insulin, biologics and diagnostic samples typically need 2–8°C from warehouse to clinic. Our pharmaceutical EPS boxes use 35–50 mm high-density walls with tight-fitting lids, sized around standard gel-pack and ice-pack configurations. Pharma distributors and hospitals across Pakistan use our medicine boxes for inter-city courier shipments where refrigeration is unavailable in transit.
Fish & Seafood Boxes
Fish boxes are the original EPS success story in Pakistan — Karachi’s seafood exporters ship tonnes of fish daily in insulated boxes. Our fish boxes range from small 5 kg retail sizes to large 40–50 kg export boxes with 40–50 mm walls that hold ice for 24–48 hours. Local fish markets, online seafood sellers and exporters all buy standard sizes off the shelf; export packers order custom dimensions for container loading.
Meat Boxes
Meat boxes need the same cold-holding power as fish boxes with extra attention to hygiene — smooth, washable interiors that don’t trap odour. Butchers, frozen-meat brands and qurbani meat distributors use our meat boxes for fresh and frozen meat transport, from shop-to-home delivery to inter-city frozen shipments. Food-grade EPS with 30–40 mm walls keeps meat safe for 24+ hours with ice or gel packs.

Choosing the Right Box: Buying Advice
- Match wall thickness to journey time. A 6-hour courier run needs less insulation than a 48-hour Karachi–Peshawar trip — when in doubt, go thicker.
- Size the box to the product. Dead air space wastes ice; a snug box with gel packs outperforms a big half-empty one.
- Density matters for reuse. High-density boxes survive dozens of trips; cheap thin ones crack after two or three.
- Test before committing. Order samples, pack as you will in real shipments, and check arrival temperature before bulk ordering. Specify for May–August heat, not spring weather.

FAQs
How long does ice last in a thermopore box? With 40–50 mm walls and a full ice load, 24–48 hours in summer is realistic; pre-chilled product and gel packs extend this. Opening the lid often shortens it.
Can thermopore boxes be reused? Yes — wipe clean, dry fully and avoid stacking heavy loads on them. Wash fish boxes after each use to prevent odour.
Do you make boxes for vaccine and medicine transport? Yes. Our pharma-grade boxes with 35–40 mm walls are used with gel packs for temperature-sensitive medical shipments. Tell us your required temperature range and journey time and we will recommend a size.
What is the minimum order for custom boxes? Standard sizes have no minimum. Custom moulds require a volume commitment to justify the mould cost — typically in the hundreds of units. Contact us with your dimensions for specifics.
Can you print our brand on the boxes? Yes, branding and labelling options are available on bulk orders. Share your logo and quantity for a quote.
Do you make EPS boxes for meat shops and frozen meat suppliers? Yes — our meat boxes with 30–40 mm food-grade EPS walls are used by butchers and frozen-meat brands for fresh and frozen meat transport. They wash clean, don’t trap odour, and hold temperature for 24+ hours with ice or gel packs.
Do you deliver outside Lahore? Yes, we ship boxes across Pakistan. Because boxes are bulky, transport cost per unit falls sharply with larger orders — it often pays to order a quarter’s stock at once.
