The Complete Cold Chain
When Quality Never wavers for an instant... you can completely change your patients lives.
1. Cold Chain Packaging
We developed a custom thermal vaccine packaging solution surrounded with insulation and 50 lbs. of dry ice, which we produce on demand.
2. Vaccine Kit Building
We helped vaccine distributors create a kitting solution to make it easier for hospitals and clinicians awaiting vaccine supplies.
3. Cold Transportation Network
Vaccines are shipped via temperature-controlled transport. Dry-ice packaging is replenished at our re-icing stations as needed.
4. Monitoring and Visibility
With UPS® Premier, our Command Center monitors the real-time temperature and location of each box within 2 meters throughout the journey.
5. Early Morning Delivery
We deliver the vaccines to medical facilities the next morning. Safe, viable arrival at -80°C means they are now ready to be used to help save lives.
