Coolers for Work and Play

FoodCap coolers are food and beverage coolers designed for multiple applications at work or play.

Each is manufactured from a proprietary resin formulation that is lightweight, strong, and also odour and bacteria resistant.

They are cost competitive and outperform EPS coolers (polystyrene / styrofoam) in terms of durability, usability and longevity.

FoodCap coolers have outstanding thermal insulation either cold or hot and are made from an FDA approved food-safe material.

With environmental stewardship at the core of FoodCap’s vision our coolers are 100% recyclable at the end of their useful life.

FoodCap coolers are made in the USA and can be supplied in a range of sizes, or in custom designed to a unique product specification to differentiate from your competitor’s assortments. Features include shape, size, colour, brand, and thermal performance choices.

Custom Design

We work with retail buyers to design and prototype coolers to your unique specification, providing differentiation from retail or online competitor assortments.

We can modify coolers from our existing range or custom design in different:

• Sizes

• Shapes – stackable, nestable

• Colors

• With different thermal insulation performance characteristics

• Either FoodCap branded or branded under your own private label

Our team can design unique visual merchandising aids to make your coolers fly of the stack

We can label with barcodes, QR codes and product labeling to your specific specification

Although the majority of our manufacturing to date has been in the United States, we can manufacture in the UK, many EU countries, Turkey and in Asia to reduce logistics costs and the coolers environmental shipping footprint.

Next Generation Coolers

Retail product buyer coolers

Get ready for innovation in a longstanding category. Do you want higher stock turns, revenue growth and improved return on floorspace? FoodCap coolers are right for you.

Our coolers are not made from EPS; they are proprietary resin with better thermal performance than styrofoam and are truly recyclable (a food grade cooler can be made into another food grade cooler) at end of life.

Walk the customer up the cooler category with improved dollar value margin product. FoodCap coolers give high volume floorspace, fit on standard pallets (nestable & stackable) and are capable of reducing your costs (shipping, in-store restocking, low manhandling).

When your private label team want in-country manufacture and customizable color, size and naming to fit your private label brand image, turn to FoodCap. The right quality at the right price point to support your brand positioning.

Consumers demand recyclable products which are gentler on the environment - FoodCap is your first choice in coolers.

Ask us to explain these next-generation coolers in detail. They’re different and we can explain why. We can show how they’ll position perfectly into your cooler category line up.

Sustainability manager

You are working on sustainable solutions to reduce the millions of tons of landfill per year. Are you also helping your organization move to recyclable products? We recognize the impact this can have on stock turn and revenue growth. Take a new look at coolers.

Your challenge is merchants not taking sustainability seriously. Normally it affects their stock turn, their margin goals and their end of year bonus. Often you find there are no easy product substitutes. Your wish list is longer than the appetite of the business to implement. 

FoodCap coolers are an easy, measurable result for sustainability. Both EPS coolers and hard sided coolers go to landfill at end of life. Ours is fully recyclable.  With 20 times the expected product life, our cooler can remove over 40 pounds of styrofoam landfill. Job done and a very measurable win for sustainability.  

We are actively reducing the 17 million tonnes of EPS going to landfill in the US each year. Let us help you serve the business and also the good of the world. 

Work with us to find how much styrofoam we can take out of your business this year.

Customer

You want a cooler for the family or for work and so you’re going to compare price with usability. You know when you pay more you generally get a better product. Hard sided coolers are expensive. Cheap ones done’t have good thermal insulation. And you’ll keep looking until you find the perfect balance of best quality at your preferred price. Or the more expensive one doesn’t suit you.

We know you are trying to buy more sustainably. EPS (expanded polystyrene / styrofoam) coolers have a short life . Coolers go in the car, to the beach and in the truck for work. They need to be durable. Coolers slide around the trunk, the lid cracks or sides break and they don’t work well if they aren’t fully closed. These things happen. And so you trash it (and the old cooler goes to landfill).

A FoodCap cooler is made from different material - resin - which is a better insulator and has 10 times times the strength of styrofoam coolers. You get the best of both, robust and good thermal insulation. At a price point that is affordable. FoodCap coolers can hold ice for over 48 hours.

Ask your local retailer where to buy FoodCap coolers.
