Monitoring solutions play a larger role in the cold chain than any other type of supply chain. They ensure that products are safe, and fresh, under strict temperature requirements. Without monitoring, most products could lose effectivenessand potentially endanger someone’s life. As the cold chain business rises in demand, so does the need Read more…
As COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials continue to advance and the vaccination nears its approval, its mass distribution will be the next global challenge. As such, an efficient distribution channel for approved COVID-19 vaccines is needed. This will require proper storage of products, smooth cold chain transport, timely shipping, and reliable Read more…
Cold Chains in the spotlight A race for a COVID19 vaccine is being run to determine who will make a vaccine available soonest. This where the cold chain delivery and monitoring systems will be most carefully watched. As soon as an effective vaccine is announced, following testing, there will be Read more…
A large percentage of cold chain products go to waste every year. It’s true that the cold chain is a difficult process, and refrigeration of products throughout the supply chain requires significant effort and expense. Sometimes wastages are caused by inconsistencies in the system – some aspects of the cold Read more…
Medicines and vaccines are temperature-sensitive products. When they are exposed to temperatures that are too high or too low, they can lose their stability or their ability to protect against diseases. What makes them lose their stability? Read our complete guide on vaccine sensitivities to temperature and light: How Vaccine Read more…
Pharmaceutical companies have an obligation to deliver their medical products in pristine condition in order to be effective for the patients. That means keeping them in controlled temperature storage areas to preserve them. Maintaining that temperature condition is one of the big challenges the pharma industry faces today. A product Read more…
How can severe weather conditions affect the viability of biological products? Extreme weather can result in an interrupted cold chain. Weather conditions can play a major role in the effectiveness of sensitive and expensive medicines and vaccines. Conditions such as power outages or flooding during a hurricane can affect the Read more…
Poor Countries = Weak Pharma Cold Chain Effective storage, transport, and distribution of vaccines and health products depend on a well-functioning pharma cold chain. Public health logistics are critical in disease prevention and medical programs all over the world. This is why transforming the Cold Chain distribution in developing countries Read more…
The demand for highly-efficient cold chain equipment (CCE) has been steadily increasing since the early 2000s. As a result, momentum for stimulating the development of two new cold chain equipment categories– solar direct-drive refrigerators and passive-cooled cold boxes – has been generated. Its aim was to eliminate the top market Read more…
Spoilage from improper temperature control is the leading cause of damage loss of pharmaceutical products in the cold chain delivery system. Spoilage incurs major losses for the pharmaceutical companies amounting to billions of dollars every year. Improved monitoring techniques are needed to ensure that cold chain tracking measures are in Read more…
