Whale Pod Shipper Launches New “Tray Pods” — A Smarter, Sustainable Way to .Ship Canned Beverages
Okemos, MI — October 24th, 2025 — Whale Pod Shipper, the leading innovator in protective packaging for beverage logistics, has unveiled its latest product: Tray Pods, a recyclable, space-saving, and cost-efficient solution for shipping cans safely across the country.
Designed with beverage brands, retailers, and fulfillment centers in mind, Tray Pods combine sustainability, stackability, and shock protection into one streamlined can tray shipping system. Tray Pods are made from 100% recyclable corrugated cardboard, and engineered to lock products securely in place during transit—eliminating breakage and reducing packaging waste.
There are few different size options. There's the kit - which includes the tray an outer box, or the trays are offered alone. For the kits, there's the 12 Pack 12oz, 24 Pack 12oz, 12 Pack 16oz, 24 Pack 16oz, 12 Pack 12 Sleek, and 24 Pack 12oz Sleek.
Each Tray Pod nests perfectly within the provided outer shipping boxes. Beverage companies can now mix and match can pack sizes without needing separate custom inserts—ideal for high volume direct-to-consumer shipments and subscription boxes.
For the trays alone, there's the 12 Can Trays for 12oz or 16oz Cans, 12 Pack Trays for 12oz Sleek Cans, 24 Pack Trays for 12oz or 16oz Cans, and the 24 Pack Trays for 12oz Sleek Cans.
“Tray Pods were built to simplify beverage fulfillment,” said Jim MacGregor, founder of Whale Pod Shipper. “Our customers needed something lightweight, eco-friendly, and simple to pack at scale. This design lets brands ship cans confidently while lowering costs and improving sustainability.”
Whale Pod’s packaging line is trusted by hundreds of leading beverage brands shipping everything from non-alc beverages, craft beer, hard seltzers to THC infused drinks, Hard Cider, CBD beverages, and functional drinks. The new Tray Pods continue the company’s mission to make sustainable e-commerce shipping simpler, safer, and smarter for beverage innovators nationwide.
We all know delivery companies like UPS, USPS, and Fedex and get very rough with deliveries, and often mishandle the packages. Tray Pods protect beverage shipments, even through the harshest shipping conditions.
Key Features of Tray Pods:
- Simple to assemble and pack, require no additional packing materials
