Jul 26, 2017: Sonoco ThermoSafe, a unit of Sonoco and a leading global provider of temperature assurance packaging, has launched a new range of reusable, universal solutions for the pharmaceutical and biologics markets. ChillTech is a pre-qualified range of 2°C to 8°C PCM systems providing exceptional temperature control from 2 days up to 6 days for payloads from 4L to 40L. ChillTech utilises Sonoco ThermoSafe’s patented Zero Bench-Time technology, where systems can be packed-out straight from the freezer, saving customers space, time and money. Similar shippers on the market are qualified for just 4-days and typically use high-value components, which translate into higher costs for customers. These shippers also typically need time outside of the freezer prior to packing out, making Sonoco ThermoSafe’s Zero Bench-Time technology a real benefit. Each ChillTech solution has the same pack-out configuration and is used year-round, regardless of season. In addition, following Sonoco ThermoSafe’s philosophy to Embrace Simple: simply change the outer insulated shipper to switch shipment duration from 48 hours to 96 hours to 144 hours. “Our ChillTech range offers 2-day, 4-day and 6-day shippers, something new for this market,” said Vishal Khushalani, director of global marketing and business development, Sonoco ThermoSafe. “Plus, our 2-day solutions will be the first affordable reusable shipping option in the market. Considering that most clinical shipments in each region happen within 48 hours, ChillTech shippers will help customers reduce their total cost of ownership significantly.” “Our innovative ChillTech range of solutions are the only reusable product available on the market that offers 2°C to 8°C protection with the option of single stage conditioning that covers durations from 2-6 days,” said Ron Haub, commercial director of Sonoco ThermoSafe. “Market research has found that one of the key challenges faced by the cold chain industry is finding the time, space and money to accommodate a two-stage conditioning process when preparing time-sensitive cold chain shipments. We are answering that challenge while reducing the cost of ownership through affordable purchase or leasing options.” ChillTech products are available globally for purchase or for lease from Sonoco ThermoSafe locations across Europe and North America.
