Dry Ice Packs | Temperature-Assured Shipping Solutions

Maintaining product efficacy during transit requires precision cooling solutions. Dry ice packs (solid CO₂ systems) deliver cryogenic protection where conventional refrigerants fail, ensuring thermal integrity for high-value pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, and premium perishables throughout global supply chains.

Core Technical Advantages

1. Extended Cryogenic Performance

• Maintains -78.5°C for 72-96 hours in transit

• 40% longer thermal hold vs. gel-based alternatives

• Critical for:

  • mRNA vaccines & biologics

  • Cell therapies

  • Specialty diagnostics

2. Zero-Moisture Phase Change

• Solid→gas sublimation prevents:

  • Product contamination

  • Secondary containment needs

  • Packaging compromise

3. Logistics Optimization

• 30% higher payload density vs. water-based ice

• Enables mixed-commodity palletization

• Reduces freight costs through volumetric efficiency
