Pharma Packaging - Sensitive Products on the Move: A Brief Look at the Market

When it comes to transporting pharmaceutical products, ensuring their safety and integrity is of utmost importance. The market offers various packaging solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of sensitive pharmaceuticals. Let's explore some key product groups and their applications:

Active and Passive Containers: Companies like Skycell, Opticooler, and CSafe provide both active and passive containers for pharmaceutical transportation. Such equipment is used for biologics and vaccines, etc.,  that require precise temperature control to destinations, where the provider entertains a return/turnaround infrastructure/hub.

High-Tech Thermofoils: Thermofoils like Temax 4000, Tyvek 50 Extreme, or Combitherm, just to mention a few,  offer advanced insulation properties to protect pharmaceuticals from temperature fluctuations. These foils are mostly used for pharma products in larger volumes, that require a temperature between +2C and +25C.

Pallet Shippers: Pallet shippers like Delta T, va-Q-pal, and Softbox or Thermocon …and many more, provide efficient solutions for transporting pharmaceutical shipments for all popular temperature zones. These shippers are designed to maintain a controlled environment for temperature-sensitive products to any destination in the world. After preconditioning to the requested temperature, mostly equipped with Akku boards, they are ready to withstand unfriendly temperature situations for longer periods. Some shippers also are equipped with vacuum panels, this in order to even increase the performance. Many of those shippers in the market, are also available as single and as multiple use edition. While shippers in provide top performance at comparably low cost, the different products on the market show substantial differences in Volume weight, cost of material and performance. To calculate the landed cost of a shipment is here also the key, to make the right decision.

In conclusion, the diverse range of packaging options available in the pharma industry underscores the importance of selecting the right solution based on the specific requirements of the products, transportation conditions and regulatory standards. Different products necessitate different packaging approaches, emphasizing the need for a tailored approach to packaging based on the unique characteristics of each pharmaceutical product and the transportation route.

By understanding these nuances and selecting the appropriate packaging solution, pharmaceutical companies and their transport service providers can ensure the safe and secure transit of their valuable products.
