COLD CHAIN LOGISTICS
Time and temperature sensitive shipments require special attention and high-level knowledge of cold chain logistics. WuliuAir is a certified supplier of cold chain logistics services ensuring controlled and uncompromised transfer of time and temperature sensitive shipments.
Our team has accomplished IATA Time&Temperature Sensitive Healthcare Products courses and has practical training of preparing and packaging temperature sensitive products. Mainly we service pharmaceutical, medical and food industries in Lithuania.
In cold chain logistics process shipments remain within a temperature range for an extended period through thermal and refrigerated packaging methods and the logistical planning. Below you can check our main packaging technologies that are used to keep required temperature.
Dry ice is made of solid carbon dioxide, can keep pharmaceuticals, dangerous goods and foodstuffs frozen (from -18 °C) or deep frozen (from -29 °C) long enough to safely reach the destination. Products are packed with dry ice in special insulated boxes. It is necessary to consider that dry ice does not melt, instead, it sublimates in contact with air.
Gel and ice packs are used for pharmaceutical and medical shipments that are classified as chilled products, which means they must be stored in a temperature range between 2 and 8°C.
WuliuAir offers pick up and distribution service with temperature-controlled vans, which can keep cargo temperature from -18°C up to 25°C.
Shipments that require +18+25°C can be easily transported by air without special temperature control as usually aircrafts keep “room temperature” all the time. If necessary, thermo vans can take cargo to and from the airport, also before and after flight cargo can be kept in Cold or Keep cool storage areas at the airport.
