Abstract

An inflatable container for storage of foods under insulated conditions. The container is formed of a removable heavy gauge plastic liner which fits inside of an open inflated box structure fitted with an inflated cover. The inflatable box structure and cover are each made of ribbed flexible material joined as walls to enclose an inflatable chamber and fitted with an orifice and a sealing cap. The inflated chamber serves as an insulation medium for maintenance of the contents of the liner at reduced or elevated temperatures from ambient conditions.
