Heat packs are used when shipping delicate plants to protect them from the cold and ensure a constant temperature during transport. Especially during the cooler months or during long shipping times, heat packs are essential for ensuring plants arrive healthy.
We'll then open the HeatPack shortly before shipping to allow it to warm up, enclose it in the package, and seal it. This way, your plants will remain in a warm environment during shipping.
How it works :
Heat packs consist of a mixture of iron powder, activated carbon, salt, water, and vermiculite. Upon contact with oxygen, an exothermic reaction (oxidation) begins, generating heat over several hours. There are different versions of heat packs available, each providing different amounts of heat depending on the required duration—in this case, 40 or 72 hours.
