Titel TNT signs up two customers for new cold chain packaging and shipping solution
Bericht Amsterdam, The Netherlands, 14 April 2016 – The express delivery company TNT has signed up two global customers for its new cold chain packaging and shipping solution Medpak VI°C, which officially launches this month. One is a leading clinical trial company; the other is a global biotech company. Medpak VI°C is a reusable temperature-controlled packaging network service to help healthcare manufacturers reduce costs and waste when shipping temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical and biological materials. This service is called Medpak VI°C because it guarantees a temperature variance of no more than 1°C during transport. Stricter regulations on patient safety and the growth in biologic drugs are increasing the need for proven cold chain logistics solutions, but these are often provided at a high price by specialist firms with no own delivery network. With Medpak VI°C, TNT offers an all-inclusive solution that combines high-end temperature-controlled packaging solutions with the comfort of a transport integrator’s air and road network. The service comes with tracking and monitoring solutions to ensure compliant cold chain management. Central to Medpak VI°C is the patented, cold chain packaging technology from the German company va-Q-tec. This packaging solution uses PCM (phase change materials) and vacuum insulation panels to keep temperature-sensitive packages within defined temperature ranges. Readily available at GDP (Good Distribution Practice)-compliant stations, they can maintain chilled, controlled ambient, or frozen temperatures for more than 96 hours.
