SWISS °Celsius Passive

SWISS °Celsius PassiveFor your temperature sensitive supply chain

The market for pharmaceutical and healthcare products continues to grow and shows a sustainable and sound development. As speed to market is essential, the healthcare industry is increasingly relying on air cargo. The challenge for all the involved parties in the supply chain is to keep healthcare products within the required temperature range to ensure an uninterrupted cool chain and preserve the quality of the product.
Consequently, pharmaceutical and healthcare companies around the globe are investing more and more resources in sophisticated passive packaging solutions for their time and temperature sensitive shipments.

However, it is not all about packaging, these healthcare shipments rely on high quality standardised processes, speed and adequate storage, wherever possible, throughout the supply chain.
