As a global nexus for life sciences, food innovation, and advanced R&D, Montreal demands precision logistics. Yet, for many innovators, shipping temperature-sensitive materials is an infrequent, critical requirement rather than a daily routine.
Building a permanent Dangerous Goods (DG) infrastructure is rarely economical for ad hoc needs. Jet Worldwide bridges this gap, offering a turnkey solution for small, compliant dry ice shipments from Montreal to the UK, EU, USA, and beyond—without requiring you to become a logistics specialist.
Dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) is the gold standard for ultra-low temperature transit. Sublimating at -78.5°C, it provides a stable environment for materials that must remain deeply frozen.
Our services are engineered to help companies who have neither the volume or approvals to ship dry ice shipments.
Use Case: Shipping 3kg of frozen cell cultures to a European lab for validation.
Use Case: Sending frozen plant-based protein samples to a NYC buyer evaluation.
Located in the Montreal metro area? Skip the stress of sourcing DG-compliant boxes. You can bring your samples directly to our facility for expert preparation.
The longevity of frozen conditions depends on the R-value of the insulation and the volume of dry ice. For 2026 international lanes, we recommend the following conservative benchmarks:
| Dry Ice Quantity (kg) | Typical Hold Time (Hours) | Recommended Destination |
|---|---|---|
| 2–3 kg | 24–36 Hours | Eastern USA / Ontario / Quebec |
| 4–6 kg | 48–72 Hours | UK, EU, Western USA |
| 7–10 kg | 72–96 Hours | Asia-Pacific / Remote Destinations |
*Estimates based on high-density EPS insulation and average ambient conditions.
International express couriers (FedEx, UPS, DHL) only accept dry ice when packaging and paperwork are flawless. Jet Worldwide ensures your shipment meets every threshold:
Don't let logistics stop your product launch. Whether it’s your first dry ice shipment or a periodic R&D transfer, we make it simple, compliant, and reliable.
