The common practice of installing FRP buckets stems from design limitations, as well as:
- To provide a finished look to the interior of the FRP box.
- In many cases, install LED rope light.
BikeKit boxes offer a superior design with a finished interior, eliminating the need for an additional bucket. They feature modern LED panels, not dated rope lights, and come with a complimentary insulation bucket for added value. Below is the detailed comparison highlighting the benefits of insulation:
1. Functional Purpose
| Feature | Insulation Bucket | FRP Bucket |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Function | Maintains temperature (hot/cold) for sensitive items. | Offers no temperature retention benefits. |
| Value Addition | Helps ensure food safety and quality during delivery. | No direct functional value; serves as a cosmetic cover to hide unfinished box interiors. |
2. Material, Sustainability and Cost Benefit
| Feature | Insulation Bucket | FRP Bucket |
|---|---|---|
| Material Type | Double-sided foil with bubble insulation. | Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP). |
| Weight | Lightweight (~160 g/m²), doesn’t increase box weight. | Adds at least 2.5 kg-3 kg of unnecessary weight to the box. |
| Recyclability and Food-Safe | Recyclable and food safe. | It’s toxic and not food-safe. |
3. Benefits for your organization:
| Feature | Insulation Bucket | FRP Bucket |
|---|---|---|
| Cost Benefit | Doesn’t cost extra. | Cost Benefit Doesn’t cost extra. Extra cost burden (at least 25 USD per box). |
| Delivery Quality | Ensures food reaches the customer at the desired temperature, enhancing satisfaction. | Fails to maintain food quality during transit. |
| Replacement Cost | Minimal replacement cost. | Very high replacement cost. |
