Insulated pallet covers for US shippers
Thermal Pallet Covers
Thermal pallet covers go over a loaded pallet to cut heat gain while it waits on a dock or rides in a trailer. Tell us your pallet size, load height and how many you ship a month. We'll quote the cover that fits, from us or our network of US suppliers. Clients typically save 5-10%.

Choose a cover around your loaded pallet
Start with the full loaded length, width and height, including overhang. Tell us where the pallet waits, how it travels and how long it may be exposed during handling.
Insulated pallet covers: which construction fits your load
Construction only. We confirm specs for the exact cover in your quote.
| Construction | What it's made of | Where buyers use it | Worth asking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bubble foil cover | Reflective foil laminated to bubble film | Light, single-use covers for shorter lanes | Single or double bubble layer |
| Foam foil (EPE) cover | Closed-cell polyethylene foam faced with foil | When the cover needs more body and padding | Foam thickness |
| Woven / non-woven fabric cover | Foil-faced fabric over an insulating layer | Reusable covers that get handled many times | Closure type and how it folds for return |
| Pallet cover + base sheet | Any of the above plus a matching base or bottom sheet | When the pallet's underside is exposed on the dock | Whether the base is separate or attached |

Measure your pallet before selecting an insulated cover
- Loaded dimensions
- Measure maximum length, width and height after wrapping, including overhang. State whether height includes the pallet base.
- Handling and access
- Describe loading, unloading and how often the cover must open. Include staging and transfer conditions.
- Shipment requirements
- Provide the product temperature requirements, expected exposure time and whether the cover will be recovered for reuse.
Thermal pallet covers and pallet blankets provide passive insulation. They do not replace refrigerated transport when your goods require active cooling. The quoted construction and fit should be reviewed against the complete shipping process.
What GelPax customers say
Feedback from customers of our custom gel pack range.
“I was quite cautious when first ordering from Gelpax.com because I was worried it would be a difficult process and they would be too expensive. But after I got the product and used it for orthopedic surgeries I was very happy with the quality and performance! They were also great at matching my logo colors.”
“I currently use the 3x5" Gelpax for the kids at my school when they get hurt. I absolutely love them! Especially the size and how durable they are. Not to mention the low price! I can't imagine how any ice packs could be better.”
“Here at Twin Cities Foot and Ankle, we use the 4" Round Gelpax to promote our brand. I love how they have a fabric backing on one side. It makes them much more comfortable on the skin. Their customer service is unparalleled.”

Thermal Pallet Covers: your questions
What is a thermal pallet cover?
A fitted hood, usually foil-faced, that slides over a loaded pallet to insulate it during staging and transport. It doesn't cool anything on its own.
What's the difference between thermal and insulated pallet covers?
Buyers use the two names for the same product. Some suppliers say "thermal" for thin reflective covers and "insulated" for thicker foam ones, so ask for the construction.
Do I need a base sheet?
If the pallet sits on a warm dock or the bottom is exposed, yes. Covers alone leave the underside open.
Are thermal pallet covers reusable?
Some are. Woven covers are usually built to be reused; bubble foil covers are usually single-use. We'll confirm for the cover you're quoted.
Can I use gel packs under a pallet cover?
Yes, some shippers add frozen gel packs to the load. Keep packs from touching product, since frozen packs collect condensation.
How do I measure for a cover?
Loaded length, width and height, including overhang.
Can you quote a custom size?
Yes. Send loaded dimensions and quantity.
Can I request a quote without a final specification?
Yes. Enter your quantity and contact details. Add what you know in shipment notes; we can discuss the remaining details when we follow up.
What are the minimum order and lead time?
We confirm order requirements, product cost, shipping and lead time for the available option in your quote.
Can you help with recurring orders?
Yes. We offer weekly, monthly and as-needed delivery nationwide. Share your usage and delivery ZIP so we can confirm quantities, freight and a schedule.
