The Right Packaging.
For the Right Temperature.
Temperature-controlled packaging is a critical component of pharmaceutical logistics.
RX Logistics coordinates both active and passive temperature-controlled packaging solutions, selecting the appropriate system according to shipment profile, temperature range, duration, route, and handling requirements.
Our packaging capabilities range from single-use temperature-controlled shippers to airline-approved cryogenic vessels.
We can coordinate the sourcing, preconditioning, preparation, and delivery of appropriate packaging solutions for individual shipment requirements.
Active Powered Units & Passive VIP Shippers
Preconditioned thermal packaging qualified from CRT to -196°C cryogenic dewars.
Packaging Solutions Designed Around Shipment Requirements
Temperature-controlled packaging plays an important role in pharmaceutical and life sciences logistics.
The right packaging solution depends on several factors, including the product's temperature range, shipment duration, route, ambient conditions, handling requirements, and packaging performance.
RX Logistics coordinates active and passive temperature-controlled packaging solutions to support the transportation requirements of pharmaceutical and biological shipments.
Our Packaging Capabilities
Active Temperature-Controlled Packaging
Active systems use powered temperature-management mechanisms to maintain defined conditions within their operating parameters.
Where appropriate and available, we coordinate active packaging options according to the shipment profile, route, duration, and operational requirements.
Passive Temperature-Controlled Packaging
Passive packaging systems use insulation and suitable thermal components to help maintain required conditions during transportation.
We coordinate appropriate passive packaging options based on the product's temperature requirements and anticipated transit conditions.
Qualified Packaging Solutions
Packaging selection should consider the qualification evidence applicable to the specific packaging system and its intended use.
We help coordinate packaging solutions appropriate to the shipment's temperature requirements, route, duration, and handling conditions.
Single-Use Temperature-Controlled Shippers
Single-use shippers can be suitable for shipments requiring a defined temperature-control solution for a particular journey.
The appropriate shipper depends on the product, required temperature range, transit duration, and packaging specifications.
Cryogenic Vessels
Specialized cryogenic vessels may be required for certain biological and advanced therapy shipments.
We coordinate suitable vessel and transportation arrangements according to the shipment's requirements and the capabilities available for the route.
Packaging Preconditioning & Coordination
Some packaging systems require preconditioning before dispatch.
We coordinate applicable packaging preparation, preconditioning, and delivery arrangements according to the selected packaging system and shipment plan.
Thermal Stabilization & Preconditioning
Our preconditioning protocols ensure phase-change materials, vacuum-insulated panels, and dry vapor nitrogen dewars reach verified thermal equilibrium prior to product loading.
How We Approach Packaging Selection
Packaging requirements are evaluated according to the shipment profile.
Relevant considerations may include:
Product Temperature Range
Matching precise temperature tolerances from CRT to Cryo.
Expected Transit Duration
Ensuring adequate thermal autonomy across the full route.
Route and Transport Mode
Ground, air, or sea environmental stress profile.
Anticipated Ambient Conditions
Summer, winter, or extreme climate seasonal profiles.
Shipment Size & Configuration
Volumetric payload fit, weight, and dimensional stability.
Handling & Transfer Needs
Ramp transfer points, customs clearance, and transit hubs.
Monitoring Requirements
Real-time GPS beacons, Bluetooth loggers, or multi-use sensors.
Packaging Qualification
Operating instructions, manufacturer dossiers, and compliance data.
The selected packaging must be appropriate for the intended application and the conditions under which it will be used.
