What are the new challenges and opportunities that you identify?
New technologies are revolutionizing the medical field in ways that many didn’t think would be possible and this has led to medicines becoming more temperature sensitive. This was already an issue in the past when it came to safely delivering biologicals until the last mile, but these new technologies have expanded the temperatures that a cold chain needs to maintain from the traditional 2°C to 8°C and -20°C, all the way down to -86°C. This creates a challenging situation when it comes to storage and transport in remote locations which often lack basic infrastructure. Moreover, the real-time monitoring of temperatures has become even more important due to the increasing layers in the supply chain. We are constantly working on new solutions to cater to all these challenges by bringing in more innovative features and versatility to our products.
