Frozen/Refrigerated Sample Kit

Video description

A silent over-the-shoulder demonstration of an IBI Data team member unpacking a refrigerated sample-kit shipping box. The carton is lined with insulation and refrigerant gel packs to keep the contents cold. One by one, they lift out vacuum-sealed frozen and refrigerated food samples, including flatbreads and other packaged products, each accompanied by a printed spec sheet. A picture-in-picture inset highlights each product and the fully packed kit. The video has background music and no spoken narration.
